miscarriages usually occur withing the first 12 weeks when your hormones are all over the place and your body may reject the baby. that doesn't mean that it couldn't happen later on, but there is less of a chance.

the myth is "3 months" when people would then tell family and friends, i have 4 children but had 5 miscarriages all around the 10 week mark. I say it will happen any time if its not meant to be, i say try not to think about it and enjoy pregnancy its a wonderful thing. And if it happens try not to feel guilty, its natures way of saying maybe something weren't quite right.

According to the NHS, 80% of miscarriages happen in the first 8 weeks, so that's when the chance is greatest.

Usually if u get thru the first 3 months, u should go all the way.
Eat Folic Acid foods and fruits, milk, juices , meats,
Take care of yourself and u should not have miscarriages.

My wife is pregnant right now our first child so I hear this a lot. After the first 15 weeks it drops significatly. And it drops more and more as your prgnancy will go on.

Once you see the heartbeat on the ultrasound, your risk of miscarriage goes down significantly.

It has more to do with your personal history, you have a higher chance of miscarriage if you've had one in the past.

there are two points at which they drop. when you first see the babys heartbeat.(around 8wks) and at 13 wks when you offically enter the 2nd trimester.
