8 weeks 3 days
So after 2 miscarriages last year and countless tests from the recurrent miscarriage clinic I am now pregnant again. My last baby I thought I was 11 weeks and baby stopped growing and heart stopped at 8 weeks 2 days. Now I’m round about that stage again I’m so so nervous. Iv had 2 scams already 1 at 6 week and 1 at just over 7 and saw a healthy heartbeat at both. Not due my next scan for another week and I’m so so nervous. Any advice? What the chances everything will be ok after seeing a healthy heartbeat twice? I just want my rainbow baby in my arms

It's so hard when u have had the bad results before. The waiting is the worst part. When I see the heartbeat that's when I tend to feel better. But my past experience they didn't find a heartbeat so that's all I have to go on. Prayers your way

Similar situation, had 2 early losses in 5 months last year. Went to a fertility specialkst, all tests normal and I'm seeing him until the hospital takes over just before 20 weeks. Anyway at our 8 week scan he said that the risk of mc is now at 1% so that's a 99% chance that everything will be fine. Good luck!

The problem I have is my Mmc last time I saw a heartbeat and thought everything was ok and then they told me it would of stopped around 4 days after my previous scan. We so badly want to be excited but it’s so so hard cus even a heartbeat doesn’t mean much to me at the moment. Such a weird experience. It helps me for about 2 days then anxiety kicks in again x

I’m in the same situation KL... had 2 mmc’s in two years. Last time the heartbeat stopped at 8 weeks and we found out at 9. I’ve had a scan at 9 weeks and the heartbeat was still fine, but i still have one foot out of the door expecting things will go the same way again. I don’t think the anxiety will ever go away, literally straight after a scan I dread the next one.

That’s what I’m like ginger rage. Can’t seem to move it. Getting through this week and to next Friday is going to be the hardest then will be another 3 week to wait for dating scan. Hopefully if I see a heartbeat next week I will relax just a little bit more knowing Iv seen the heart beating at 3 scans.
Best of luck sweetie x

I know just how you feel! 2 miscarraiges last year. Both stopped developing at 7w5d exactly. I just had a scan go exactly as it should wednesday (7w4d) and was so relieved. But the next day I was right back to being anxious again. I wont see my baby again until 9w4d. Every little cramp im sure i will miscarry. When will we get to breathe a sigh of relief?

Unfortunately you might not breathe a sigh of relief until the baby is born healthy. That’s where I’m at. Had a MMC at 8 weeks, baby measured 6.5 and was devastated since we had seen the healthy heartbeat. So devastated I said it might kill me to go through another. 5 years later and I’m unexpectedly pregnant again. 8w6d, and have seen a healthy heartbeat twice. My next scan isn’t until 12 weeks, which is 3 weeks away. I cry every day because I’m so terrified. I want this baby SO MUCH and it’s my last shot.

My husband and I almost decided to stop trying. We started trying for our second almost 2 years ago. My sons pregnancy went fairly smooth i didnt worry about a miscarraige until it happened. 1st ultrasound no heartbeat 8w6d. 2nd one we never had a good ultrasound. Measured behind, small sac. We did see that ones heart beat. Anyway, if we lose this one I dont know that we could try again

Iv said the same. If this goes the same way I’m not sure I could mentally cope with going through it again. It’s such a mix of emotions. The hospital keep telling me for now everything is fine so be happy and stay positive cus it’s an amazing experience and your not pregnant for that long. Which I completely understand but when it’s happened before it’s so hard to not think of that.
But for us all. It’s a new sperm, a new egg, another chance of a miracle and a new time in life so we have to be positive and no focus on the past. But I do know I won’t settle until I have my baby in my arms. Wish you all the best x

This may seem cliche to say but third times a charm. I only say this bc my first was stillborn at 33 weeks due to placental abruption my rainbow was born 31 weeks due to placental abruption. Had a month hospital stay. My third was full term and a perfect pregnancy. I hope this one goes as smooth as my last. I hope this one stays sticky for you. Your in my thoughts mama.

Awww chantilly that’s really sad you’ve had it so rough. I can’t even imagine how you get through something like that. So glad you had a healthy pregnant afterwards and sending you lots of love for this one.
My boyfriend keeps saying third time lucky to me. To be fair I do feel a lot different my belly Is way more bloated keep getting the twinges is hopefully my growin uterus. Iv actually been sick this time and when I’m not sick I feel sick all day every day. And my boobs are so so sore all the time. So fingers crossed it’ll all be worth it x

I MMC at 12 weeks the first time and 14 weeks the second time.. I bought a Doppler this time around.. this is going to be our last shot I know I can't handle another loss especially that far in my pregnancy... My doctor's have me on progesterone and baby aspirin this time ... Hopefully the baby dust sticks for both of us and we get our rainbow babies

Todivine I wish you all the luck in the world. That also scares me cus they say your out the danger zone after 12 weeks but I’ve known a few people mc after 12 weeks aswell :( it’s so hard. And I have also said the same I’m not sure I could go through it again. But I don’t have any children either so it’s a hard decision
