tto (1556.5 days ago) I read somewhere the risk drops to less than 3% after week 10. Now,something big has to happen, like a ruptured placenta, infection, preterm labor or incompetent cervix. I read up on miscarriage- it said when fertilization happens and all the DNA is decided, etc., the baby develops up until something piece of info is missing- then a miscarriage occurs and it has zero to do with the mother not resting enough, or not taking folic acid , etc. I lost one at 8-9 weeks and one at 23. My last one is a beautiful boy- now three. It sucks to lose a child- but we have so little control. It doesn`t help to worry. Just enjoy what you have for today and each day.
takirah (1556.5 days ago) im not sute of what the % is but i know it dropped significantly. I felt the same when i was 12 weeks (im now 17) but trust me the less you worry the better it will be.
oldmama (1556.9 days ago) Oh honey - I know how you feel. I`ve had the same feelings. This will be last shot at being a mommy again (my daughter is 8 and I am 42). Nature has it`s way and you just have to not get too stressed over it. It`s always not far from my mind as well. I got really upset last week as Heather07 was in week 22 and really a great deal younger than me. She went into premature labor and lost her baby. I was so upset for her. I also got paranoid for myself. I felt guilty a bit. Please know that if nature does take that bundle from you, it was for the best and something was not right. If you are young, please know that you can try again later. Don`t dwell too much on it, but know that your feelings are normal. I`m hear for you, just like all the other mom`s and be assured that you have lots of support. Take care and don`t worry about the #`s. I have great hope that we all will do okay.
clackkit (1557.2 days ago) Hi, I had a missed miscarriage with my first pregnancy and although i do still worry (i think its only normal) we have to try and relax. When ever i feel myself worrying i shake myself out of it and just say to my self everything is ok this baby is going to be fine. The only thing we can do and it makes you feel better :)
