Help Scared of Miscarriage Posted: 04-28-05 12:00pm
Hello, I have three children and I had a
miscarriage at 17 days pregnant back in
feb. I am now pregnant and very happy to
be . My husband and I are worried that
this might happen agian. He is worried
and I am terrified, I overthink all the
little twinges and pains and I have pain
in my sides in my lower abdomen and I am
sure that they are simply just muscles
streching but I still worry. Can someone
who has had a miscarriage shed any light
on this of wether I should be concerned or
anyone with any knowledge on miscarriages.
I have three healthy children and have
only had the one miscarriage and am now 5
weeks and one day. Please help on the
advise. Thanks so much.

I was very younge when I had my
miscarrige but the one thing that I know
is that everything was fine until a day
before I started to bleed. I woke up in
pain and not just little twinges, horrible
blinding pain. I stayed in bed all day
and then the next day I started to bleed
profusley. This time I had all the normal
aches and normal pains just as you
describe and I am now 32 weeks. I didnt
even think that I was pregnant because I
was having cramps like I was going to
start my period, but I never did. I am
sure you are fine, try to limit your
lifting and dont exert yourself. If you
have little ones that walk but still want
mommy to hold then, ask them to hop onto
the bed and then pick them up from there.
I wish you lots of luck and keep us
informed.

I don't think there is anything you can do
to prevent it from happening. It is just
one of those bad luck things.
Unfortunetly, I have had two. The doc
just says that you need to take the
vitamins and try to stay healthy.
Good luck with your pregnancy!!

It is normal to think this way when you
are pregnant and especially after just
barely having a miscarriage, try to be
more positive and try to put your feet up
as much as possible which I am sure is not
easy with three little ones running
around.
Good luck to you and yours!
Sincerely,
sandy

Try not to worry about it too much. Just
try to relax. Maybe once a week you and
your husband could go out to a movie or
dinner or something just to get you out of
the house. Just remember if it was meant
to be then it will happen.
