7 Weeks Pregnant And So Nervous

I've had two miscarriages in the last two years. My husband and I decided to wait until I was at a much lower weight to try again but we had an unexpected surprise when my period never came.

I'm so scared and have cried my eyes out I dont think I can mentally handle another miscarriage. I know I need to stay positive but at this point all I can think is how long till this one is taken away from me :(.

I've lost around 45 lbs since the last one I hope it helps. Doc appointment is August 28th I hope things are diffrent this time.

Make sure Dr keeps an eye on your Progesterone level. I don't know why but some Drs let women have multiple miscarriages when a simple blood test and a rx can stop it.

You will be in my thoughts & prayers!

Keep good thoughts and I'm sure the weight loss made a big difference. We have been trying to have a baby for 16 years with no luck. I can't imagine losing 2 a long the way. You have amazing strength and will make it through whatever happens this time. I'm hoping the weight loss will do the same for me.

I understand, I had 3 miscarriages in a year. I am terrified to look at a pregnancy test. Not sure I will ever have one.

I will definatley look into the progesterone. I had someone else tell me that could be my problem.

So sorry for those of you who have also miscarried its a heartbreaking situation that never truly leaves your thoughts

I forgot to tell you congratulations!

My daughter had 2 miscarriages and it wasn't until she did the research and made Dr check it and found out her progesterone level was dropping.

I get so anger that a Dr allows a women to go through such a painful experience, when it could be avoided.

Good luck and Congrats!! I had a lot of heart break in the 17 years of trying. Im about 38 weeks now and freaked out everyday. I still get scared now but Im also sad I spend my entire pregnancy scared and not fully enjoying the experience. Its tough but enjoy it!

Congratulations!! I also agree about the progesterone. Taking progesterone supplements helped me I think.

It got pushed back to Thursday :( but I had a small amount of brown spotting and got nervous so I went to the ER and all my hormone levels are good my cervix is closed and I saw the baby and its hearbeat:) so pretty happy at this point but still very nervous. Also I'm only 6.5 weeks along my due date predictor was wrong because my periods aren't standard every 26 days like most girls its about every 36.

That happened to me when I was 6 weeks. SO far everything is great. Im due this Friday and if he doesnt come on his own, Im scheduled to be induced Tuesday. Hes getting to be a big baby. Dont worry. Enjoy each and every milestone you reach because your pregnancy will go faster then you think.

Seein that little heart beating on yhe screen really gave me a new found hope I wasn't sure I could truly find :)

Our due dates must be very close...I am due April 21st! Just had my first appointment yesterday, and seeing/hearing that little heartbeat is the biggest sigh of relief I think I've ever had in my life. This is my first, so I am incredibly nervous. My heart goes out to you - my sister has had 3 miscarriages and only one successful pregnancy. She is at the point she is not sure if she wants to even try for another. Thoughts and prayers to you for a healthy pregnancy this time around! :-)
