Hi all

I took a home pregnancy test on Tuesday and I am pregnant again after having a miscarriage at 5+5 back in January. I have passed that stage this time as I am 6+3 but Im worried and panicking at every little twinge that I have. What can I do to stop myself worrying? Also was wondering whether it is normal for breast tenderness to decrease at around this time too.
Thanks.

I know breast tenderness is normal, but was wondering if it is normal for it to decrease at times. I can't help but worry. Thanks for the congrats :)
Congratulations! You are just about at the same stage as me, I'm 6+5!
It is perfectly normal to worry, especially since you had a miscarriage before but symptoms can appear and disappear at any time I have found. Sometimes I feel 'normal' and wonder what if somethings happened to the baby? Then I'll feel like crap and it makes me feel better!
I have also had lots of twinges and little pains too, apparently its the ligaments stretching!
Have you been offered an early scan? I heard some people are after they have had a loss before. If not you can have one done privately for around �70 which I would love but can't afford.
Another thing is that the risk of miscarriage now is supposed to only be 5% once your between 6-12 weeks.
Hope this helps!

Hi
Thanks for the comment.
I have had a miscarriage again.
I started bleeding on Saturday and I had the miscarriage confirmed today.
I feel totally lost. I am still getting bad stomachs pains.
Anyway, just thought I would let you know.
I just can't help but think that I am NEVER going to have children.
Thanks again. xx
Just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear that... I wish you all the very best and don't loose hope... xXx
I'm SO sorry about your miscarriages, natalie. i know it's probably the last thing you want to here right now, but things will get better.
i had 3 miscarriages with my ex, and after the third one, i was devastated, and i thought i was never going to be a mum too.
then, i felt better and started to relax, and when i least expected it, i fell pregnant again - i was on tenterhooks, with my fingers constantly crossed, around the time the third miscarriage happened, but everything has gone smoothly, and now there's only a few weeks until i have my son.
please, please don't give up hope, and really hope you're ok!
xx
So sorry to hear that Natalie. I can't imagine how your feeling but please don't give up hope hun, you will get your baby one day. I guess its just natures way, there must have been something wrong through no fault of your own. As hard as it is at least this has happened early on rather than later. Please take care and try again whenever you feel ready. Unfortunately this happens to many people who then go on to having healthy babies.
Take carexxx

Thank you for all your kind wishes.
I hope it will happen for me again soon, but I just can't see that at the moment. xx
