I had a miscarriage in December of 07, and am now pregnant again. I am 7 weeks, and I am so freaked out. I think I am starting to annoy my doctors office. at 4 weeks, I had blood taken for HcG levels and they were good, I can't remember what right now, then 2 days later they had tripled. So my doctor said that everything was fantastic, and that I needed to not stress and he would see me back at 8 weeks. I am so scared, every little crap I have I think I am going to have a m/c. I want to believe that things are going well, but I don't know. I am not bleeding, but I never bleed with my other m/c. I had a d/c.
Do you always bleed when you have a m/c?

I understand your worries. You do not always bleed with a miscarriage. If your levels are good now, I wouldnt worry at all. This is usually the point where things start to go sour. ENJOY this time, stop stressing yourself out you are gonna be pregnant for 33 more weeks!! Its a long road, especially when your counting every second! Your life will be filled with alot of joy and fears, this is the wonderful world of motherhood!!
By the way it is extremely common to lose your first pregnancy. Good luck to you! Hope i helped a little :)

Thank you so much for making me feel better. I have actually felt so much different this time than last time. I am very tired, and have some nausea, boobs are very sore,so hopefully these are good signs. I don't know anyone who likes to be sick, but for me, I kinda feel like "bring it on! " If this is what I have to go through, then so be it! "

i am so glad to actually have come across this site...i have been trying to cope with 2 m/c (blighted ovum & ectopic) it seems like i've had it all and there's no one to turn as they try to console just for the heck of saying so but on the other hand they give you the pressure of getting pregnant again...i'm 32 and been married for 5yrs i'm proud to say that people envy my relationship with my husband for his such a charming one. i feel like i've gotten over the pain but it keeps coming back making me realize again that i'm wanting to have another one but not giving the chance to conceive. my last conception was 2yrs ago and i'm so eager to complete our family...i still have my hopes and faith as i always pray that god will give me the strenght to pull thru and understand what his plans are for me...it's just so annoying when people keeps on asking and encouraging me to get pregnanat again, i mean like if only i can conceive why not. just so frustrating to know how others can be so judgemental!

Its funny you say that because I am obssessed with Angels! I never realized it until someone pointed out how much stuff I have with various Angel themes to them! Weird. I cant wait to hear about your drs visit , you can count on my prayers.......always:)

I haven't been on in a while but I was reading this post and I would swear that I wrote it. I just had a MC and I am now pregnant again. I have bugged my dr also and they have done the HCG bloodwork twice. It too trippled not even two days later. I have some symptoms of pregnancy but I almost wish I would be sick just so I would feel better! I am in my eighth week and time is going by so slow. My first appt isnt till the 26th of Aug. I keep hearing that it will be ok this time but there is that doubt that just lingers around. I just wanted to say that I feel EXACTLY the same way!

hugapin & amanda b,
just wanted to say that i think i know how you feel. i had a missed miscarriage in january and im now nearly 25 weeks pregnant. every week seems to have taken a month and i have not been able to relax and enjoy things like other people do. people keep saying that it will be okay this time but i think losing the first one has made me very aware of how easily it could just be over. i can remember in the first 3 months or so feeling really rough (sore boobs, nausea etc) and loving it! the days i felt better really worried me. i didnt bleed with my miscarriage until the d&c and i didnt even know the baby had died for 5 weeks until my 14 week scan. i have actually paid for a scan privately at about 8 weeks as i got myself into a state about if the baby was ok this time. i think the one thing that i havent even let myself believe, for fear of being hurt again, is that this time it might actually be alright. its only now i am feeling kicks that i am actually considering i might have a baby! i know its tough but try to allow yourself to belive it might actually be ok as a lot of people have miscarriages with a first pregnancy and then have healthy babies. good luck and best wishes. ali

I had a miscariage on Mother's Day. I was about 7 wks, but we never really knew for sure in April 1st hcg was 29 then 45 the next day finally went to 400's when I went to the ospital it was 1200 the next morning went back and it had dropped to 700's my doc came in and did a D&C.
I normally go 28 days so last wed I took a HPT and it was negative, stil not feeling great took another Friday neg took one more sat neg... on monday I took another it was faint but positive, went to the doc they drew HCG level it came back at 11. I'm really scared. I had it in my mind to try again for pregnancy in August so as much as I had thought it was possible I was shocked when it came back, today is wed and there have been two more urine tests done both pos, I am waiting for the doc to call with the new #'s that were drawn today, they are supposed to have doubled!!?? This is so difficult to wait I keep praying but still feel scared.

Hugapin,

First, let me say CONGRATULATIONS!
I understand you stress right now. I've been feeling the same for months now! My husband and I had yet another miscarriage in November 2007 and I had complications through January 2008. At my final checkup appointment in February, we discovered I was pregnant. I've been stressing since that very day. :( I'm now right at 31 weeks pregnant with a little boy and the fear of something going wrong has never left me.

BUT you have to learn to live with your fears. You'll never be able to enjoy this pregnancy or your child if you don't learn how to control/face some of this fear. Try thinking of each passing day as another day your baby is stronger and has reached another milestone. It'll be so very hard, but stressing won't help you or your baby. Just breath and take your pregnancy a minute at a time. Continue to reassure yourself and your child that you're in this together. :) And of course we're all here to help you too. :)

With you in spirit,
CeeCee

i just had a miscarriage on tuesday and so i can't feel your pain...i'm so happy for you that you are pregnant, i wish nothing but the best for you, your husband and your child.
i don't think your over reacting at all. i just told my husband that if i get pregnant again, i want to see my doctor like every 2 weeks, i have such a big fear that something will go wrong...please do not stress your self out, just take it one day at a time and be happy for each day that passes that you are health and your baby is growing. please keep us updated on how your doing. my prayers are with you always...

When I read these messages it brings tears. It is so emotional to have a loss and not to mention become pregnant again. All I do is think "When I go to the bathroom is there gonna be blood"...it scares me everyday. I wish I could relax and enjoy ths pregnancy but I havent been able to. Sometimes I still wonder "Am I really even gonna have a baby in March?" Every week that goes by I fell better because Ive made it farther than last time and every day feels like an eternity. Today I have felt like sh**t and I am very happy about it. Thanks for listening.

it makes me think back now to when i found out i was pregnant, for the 1st 3 months i did not have one bit of sickness or cravings or any of the stuff they say you are to feel.... but i was so caught in the moment of having a baby, i just thought i was a "lucky" one, but now when i found out my baby stopped growing at 7 weeks, and i did not know till 12 weeks, if that was a sign...i feel like i should have picked up on it...maybe i was just lucky, but next time i get pregnant, i want to be sick, i want to know i'm pregnant... i know that may sound crazy, but i too will be scared i think it's only natural for us.....thanks everyone for being there :)
