scared about a miscarriage

edited February 2011 in First Trimester
So I am 5 weeks and im so worried about having a miscarriage. I know it's not good to stress but I can't help but worry. I think I might do something wrong or eat something that could cause a miscarriage. I pray every night just to keep myself calm but I also can't help but think about what might go wrong ..

  • I worried to till I hit 12 weeks. After that you have a 1% chance of miscarriage. Just keep taking ur prenatals and you will be fine (:
  • Yea im trying to stay as positve as I can .. but every little pain worries me. Yea I just want to get to week 12.
  • I was the same. I am now 12 weeks, so am feeling a lot more relaxed. I had a miscarriage last pregnancy. Don't panic about doing the wrong thing. A miscarriage normally occurs if there is something wrong with the foetus itself. Pains are completely normal, if you bleed continuously that's when you need to speak to your doctor or midwife. Even then bleeding isn't a sign of miscarriage. Don't be scared if you have a little bleed at 8 weeks, as that is completely normal. I did this time and it was nothing. Just enjoy your pregnancy as much as you can and keep yourself busy so you don't thong about it going wrong. Good luck. Hope it all goes well for you.
  • I'm 16 weeks and still scared about what could happen but I keep calm and try not to think about it at all..!
  • Thanks .. im trying to be as positve as I can and enjoy this pregnancy since it is my first one. Good luck to all u momies to be
  • I lost my baby at 20 week in 09 now im 5weeks and a nervous wreck!!
  • Take your vitamins and folic acid. :) pick up the book what to expect when you're expecting. There's a whole section that explains mc and you'll see that there's not much you can do to actually cause yourself to miscarriage. :D try and enjoy your pregnancy!! Xoxo
