New to this Forum

Hi, I am new to the practical parenting forums so wanted to introduce myself! My name is Jen and I am 29 years old, Married to Will, have a 2 year old daughter called Heather-Mae (Hemmie for short) and live in Oxfordshire.
I am currently 7 weeks pregnant, this is my fourth pregnancy and hoping for my second take home baby.
I had my first miscarriage at 5 and a half weeks a year ago this month and my second, a missed miscarriage discovered at 12 in April of this year. I can't believe I managed to get pregnant again in my first cycle after the erpc, especially as we only had sex once because we were both unwell! I want to be happy and exited but instead I am just plain scared that this pregnancy is going to end like my last two. I have my first scan on Monday but even if everything seems okay it won't end the worry especially as we saw our last baby, Hayden alive and well at 6+3 weeks, they told us that he died between 7 and 8 weeks so nothing short of a baby with a heartbeat at 12 weeks is going to ease the worry any. Is anybody else going through this, or got through the other side of the first trimester?

Hi I'm new too, 30 years old and 24 weeks pregnant. I had two miscarriages in the last two years and am very paranoid about this one going to term. So far I have had bleeding at 14 weeks and a scare when at 20 weeks it seemed as if my waters had ruptured, but thankfully all has been OK. The body truly is an amazing thing and can heal almost anything if we let it.

I can really resonate with your story and send prayers and blessings for a radiant wonderful pregnancy for you.

Sorry for your loss i suffered a miscarriage jus ova a year ago when i started bleedin at 8wks the hospital said i had had a miscarriage tho we l8r found out a month l8r that they had gt it wrong n i was in fact still pregnant but due 2 thinkin i wasnt pregnant had been takin medication i wudnt have otherwise and i lost the baby neway 2wks l8r, i found the due date v difficult to deal with and when i found out i was expecting again i was v nervous like urself esp when i had a bleed at 8wks that the same thing was going to happen again but thankfully everythin was ok and once i gt pass the milestone at which i lost my first i found myself getting excited i am nw nearly 7mnths pregnant n lookin 4ward 2 meetin my baby girl, hope everythin worked out 4 u x x x
