I was just wondering when do missed
miscarriages usually happen like
how many weeks were you when you had one
if you ever had one
and how common are they. And when can I
stop worrying like is there
a certain point in pregnancy that I can
like stop worrying about
miscarriage/missed miscarriage
thanks

I really don't think you should worry
about it. You should be thinking happy
thoughts not waiting to see if something
bad is going to happen.
Usually after the first trimester you are
in the safe zone. I know, I was paranoid
about it too. I dont really know why...

My first pregnancy I was so worry-free and
only thought about how lovely it was going
to be once my baby was here. Then I had a
missed miscarriage (found out at 13 weeks
the baby had died at 8) and now this
pregnancy has been beyond nerve-wracking
for me. I know it's hard not to worry
when you're pregnant but before something
bad happened to me I was fine. I just
wish everyone could relax and enjoy their
pregnancies.
Just think happy thoughts! How far along
are you? I'm 29 weeks and everything is
fantastic!

Trisha girl, you'll be alright.
I had a miscarriage really early.
At 5 weeks.
This time around .I'm almost 10 weeks
&.Everything has been great so far.
They say after the 8th week,
the risk goes down quite a bit,
&.Then after the first trimester it
goes
down to about 1%.
Also, if you've already heard the
heartbeat
of your baby, it goes down to 1% after
that, too.
Miscarriage is spontaneous &there's
nothing you
can do to stop it- but that doesn't mean
you
have to sit around worrying your little
buns off.
You'll be alright!
