Hi I am curently 12+3 after 3 m/cs my most recent being in June this year, i fell pg not long after my last m/c this pregnancy wasnt planned but we are over the moon none the less, my 3 prev m/cs were fairly early on the last one was 8+3 but didnt find out until 11 weeks, this is the furthest I have got in any of my pregnancys I feel so overwhelmed and blessed to have hit the 12 week mark we had scan on Friday after i had a little bleed needless to say I was worried sick when seen i had been bleeding my EPU squeezed me in Fri to put my mind at ease and there was my bubs doing little somersaults it was truly amazing to see. Hopefully now i can chill a little and finally enjoy being pregnant but sometimes thats easier said than done with my history xx

Hi
I had an mmc on 24 may this year, at 12 weeks (my bubs was the size of a 6 wk pregnancy so my body took 6 weeks to go through the mc).
I then bled on and off in june/july. started to feel sick in mornings and took a test on the of chance, on 13 july (6 wks after my mc) and it was positive. i got pregnant within a week of miscarrying.
We werent trying. god, the last thing i was thinking about was getting pregnant again, but it happened and im so glad it did. i'm now nearly 25 weeks and everything is great.
Good luck with everyone here and i hope your pregnancies are great experiences.

I too got pregnant straight after a m/c. I was 4w3d and ti was my first pregnancy. I was terrified when I got my second bfp. This pg lasted to 4w6d before ending. It didn't happen for me and I can't see us ever trying again at this stage (though that may change) - I just can't keep going through this.
Lots of
for all you ladies out there who still have their bumps.x

hi i miscarried on 1st of july at 10wks, the dr said to use condoms for the next month to avoid infection which we did and by the middle of august i thought that i should of had AF by now. boobs were sore and was feeling pre menstral until my very pg friend who develeped a scarily acurate pg radar said that i was pg - i said dont be daft not poss!!!
then done a test and was very positive i have scan nxt mon to confirm dates but should be due mid of april!!
I was heart broken when i MC but getting pg so quick did help me think +tive and forward. my midwife couldnt have been more supportive and said that everything should be fine. goes to show if its meant to be its meant to be!!!

hi elace, i am so sorry for your loss, mine no way compares to your saddness im sure. you were very brave. to answer your question, i actually fell straight away withput having a period after my mc. (was due today but tested a bit early cos i felt pregnant.) my friends (who dont know yet) have since told me that you are most fertile for the couple of months after an mc or pregnancy. As im pr i guess they are right, we were lucky. the only downside is that without having a period before you conceive again is that you really dont have a date to tell the midwife. the general rule from my Dr was to wait 3 months before trying again to allow you body to settle down hormonally etc, but for me that seeemed like an eternity to wait so i just thought bugger it!! they can send me for a scan to find out the dates! Although my pregnancy was not as far as yours i felt the same the ache for a baby was terrible. i was desperate and felt so empty. i felt i had lost a piece of me. and i knew the only way to omve on was to try again. fingers crossed you do soon as well. x x nicky

Hiya,
I had a slightly different experience; I went for my 20 week scan (at 21 weeks), and they found that baby had a bladder obstruction, so I had to make the decision to terminate the pregnancy- the hardest thingI have ever done!!! It was my first baby (having been trying for 2 years!). To make it worse, lots of my mates are expecting at the same time as I was!
This was only a week ago- so am still struggling to get on with life... finding it really hard!
I feel as though the only way I will ever get over it is to get pregnant quickly! But don't think I could be lucky enough to get pregnant again soon! How long has it taken you guys to fall pregnant after losing a baby?

morning! i have been up since 4am. i cant sleep for worrying. i mc last month, (14th) and havent had a af yet but tested yesterday and got a very faint positive, i do feel pregnant as symptoms same as with dd (who is 2 tomoro) and initially felt the same with the one i mc so i guess deep down i know. i just wanted a stronger positive and i really dont know how far i am. its been 4 weeks since mc so i guess no more than that. i am so worried that it wont stay put again this time. i know i need patience but i was never good with that anyway. it probably a good job it early in the moring so i casn rant to myself! has anyoneelse got pg so quickly after mc?? or had really faint lies?? i have done three tests now all positive but so faint you need to concentrate to see them. its defo not a left over from mc as hospital test showed nothing after mc and i even had my friend to see tset to be sure that i am not just a paranoid nut joob!!!!! if anyone is brave enough to have read this... thanks x x

Hi there,
I am currently going though a miscarriage now and am awaiting on nature and trusting it to take it path and quickly. Found out Wed at my scan that my baby was 8 weeks and not the 12 we thought and it has/ had no heartbeat, right now I am lost and sad and all over the place, although ready so many people have gone through this and came out the other side with a healthy baby the second time round as well as falling with 2 months or so brings me comfort. I agree that something much have been wrong and my body knew it and felt it was wrong to carry on with the pregnancy.
I had been trying for a year and was so over the moon when it it happened, and the my world came to a stop and crashed around me.
I hope things to happen and be over quick and for me to morn and have closer, as this waiting is painful in more ways than one, but i would rather be at home with my partner than have to have surgery.
Hugs to all and the best of luck, your words fill me with comfort and hope for the future.

Hi, just thought I would post to wish you all luck I lost my baby at 11 weeks in October 2007, and fell pregnant again in December am now 39 weeks pregnant it was very hard at first every niggle made me panic and still now every ache or pain (believe me there are lots at this stage) has me panicking. I have had no problems at all throughout this pregnancy and now I am just getting impatient and desperate to meet my lo although I don't think I will stop worrying until I hold my baby in my arms (then I am sure there will be a whole new list of worries) although the baby I lost will never be forgotten!!

i am sorry for ur loss i know that its harder for u being futher on then i was. i got pregnant about 2 months after my miscarriage which is what the doctor advised so my body was clear of the last pregnancy. every person is different and its up to that individual person when they feel they can cope with getting pregnant again. losing a baby no matter how far gone u are is a traumatising experience and something that i never want to go through again. i know that something was seriously wrong with my baby for me to have a mc so i know its just nature letting u know there is a problem but nature can be so cruel sometimes. good luck for the future

hiya,
I lost a baby early on, prob only a few weeks in April too, so I know exactly how you feel. it is one worry after another. I am now 14 weeks and 1 day. I know it is hard but i really do believe things happen for a reason so try and stay positive. I had my scan on thurs and believe me i was a bag of nerves. Try and stay positive chick.
I had 6 m/c's - mc again on the 7th June 2006. Concieved on the 21st June 2006 the result is Rebecca now 20 months old and asleep upstairs good luck x
