I've heard that the likely hood of having a miscarriage goes down after 13 or 14 weeks, but does that apply to teens to? If not, what is the likelyhood of someone who is 15 almost 16 to have one, because I'm 14 weeks and 1 day and I was just wondering.

The only way that age makes a difference is if you are in your late 30's . As for being a teenager it really doesn't make any difference at all, the risk decreases dramatically after the first trimester
