I just had a miscarriage - I was about midway through my first trimester. It was my first pregnancy. I've talked with my doctor about it, but I'd like to hear from women who've actually lived through it. I'm still feeling sad, so I'd like to hear stories of women who had a miscarriage and then went on to have healthy babies.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Especially losing a first pregnancy forces a women to lose some of her previous naitivte. You are more careful, more nervous for next time around.
I lost my first pregnancy at 20 weeks and I'm now 30 weeks pregnant, 1 year later. It will happen for you, and soon. Even though I battle anxiety with this pregnancy, it was the best way to get over my previous loss.
Good luck!

I had a miscarriage at 5 or 6 weeks last month over Christmas. The whole time, I wasn't sure if it was decidual bleeding that was okay or a miscarriage. Positive HPTs didn't help my confusion. I finally went in for quantitative blood tests earlier this month and found that I definitely was no longer pregnant. About 2 weeks after the bleeding stopped (stopped around Jan 1) I noticed some signs that I might be about to ovulate. I was advised to wait, but my HCG was down to 0 and we wanted to try again. For me, it is both scary and healing to me. I have one son who is almost 4 and we really wanted that baby. I was really upset about it and still feel sadness but I am convinced that if it is meant to be it will happen. I am also glad that I had such an early miscarriage because I know that it would be thousands of times harder with each passing week of pregnancy. I hope that you are able to get pregnant again if you want, and that you can feel happy and positive instead of scared and worried. I am honestly thinking of you and sending you my thoughts of happiness and healing after such a traumatic experience.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a miscarriage at 7 weeks in November. This would have been my second child. Ever since I miscarried we have been trying to conceive and so far had no success, hopefully this month! It is really sad and I don't think that people get it unless they have been there. I know that being pregnant again will be very scary as I will be afraid everytime I use the restroom that I will see pink. I will be counting the days to get to 12 weeks, the point when miscarriage risk drops. Please know that you are not alone and that most people go on to have a perfectly healthy pregnancy and equally perfect babies pretty quickly. I wish you every success and you will be in my thoughts.

After my first child, I had two first trimester miscarriages while trying to have a second child. The doctors had me wait a couple of months before trying to conceive again. I had to have early ultrasounds with each pregnancy after that to make sure the baby was continuing to develop, but I had 5 more children, including one set of identical twins.

I love all of my children, and I loved the ones who were miscarried too since we had already named them. The doctors said that the cells just stop dividing sometimes, maybe because something may have been wrong with it.

It was a very difficult time emotionally, no matter what the experts say. I felt it was the first family death I had to experience. The doctors said that miscarriages are actually very common, about 20% of pregnancies. They are often so early that the women often didn't even know they were pregnant and just thought their period was starting after all.

I hope your next pregnancy works out well, as it most likely will.

i am really sorry for your loss. It's tough losing a baby, and you keep thinking what might have been. I had one in 1995 when i was 10 weeks along, and it took me a long time to get over. I had a healthy girl in 2002, and I'm having another any day now, so don't despair. Just know that when you miscarry its usually your bodies way of rejecting a pregnancy that wasn't right in the first place. You did the best you could do, but your body knows best! You will feel sad for a while, everyone grieves differently. Just don't surpress your feelings, cause it can make it worse. Talk to someone you trust, let all your feelings out, FEEL all of your feelings, and let go. Don't hold on to negative thoughts about it. It happened for a reason, and it wasn't your fault. All my luck to you.

you should communicate over such as your OB or midwife to make certain how lengthy you should attend (if any) earlier attempting back. i have not had an early being pregnant, yet a chum of mine had a chemical being pregnant and then became pregnant (although unplanned, she is extremely joyful) interior 5-6 months. also, a relative of mine had a miscarriage and she or he waited the three or 4 months the healthcare professional instructed her to attend and became pregnant after some months of attempting. So do not provide up desire! infant dirt for you!

I had a miscarriage at 11 weeks. I was told I could not try again until after my first real period. I waited and tried and got pregnant in the first month!!! It took me 2.5 years to conceive my first, and 17 months to conceive the baby we lost, and my youngest daughter surprised us by coming along so quickly! She is the best thing in the world when I wanna smile. Email me if you have questions or wanna talk!

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.
