10% (once pregnancy diagnosed)
Weeks 6-12
5% (or less if heartbeat heard)
2nd trimester
3% (considered stillbirth after 20 weeks)
3rd trimester

Every woman is different. Just do the best that you can, and try not to worry. If it makes you feel better, I was 22 when i had my first baby (im now 24) and I didnt ever have a miscarriage.

everyone is different, all your going to have to do is Not worry about anything like that and take care of yourself. Im 22 and i just lost my baby last week at 9 weeks old. Just becuz your friends lost their babies it doesnt mean you will too. Some women cant carry their first baby but when they have their second they carry it full term. Just dont worry about it, that makes it worst. Stress is what you dont need right now.

I don't know much about the topic but I have placed links that might help you out. The only advice I can give is to start taking the Prenatal pills, exercise regularly (do pregnancy exercises only), and eat balanced meals, and avoid any heavy lifting or anything that strains or squeezes your stomach.

Miscarriages happen when the baby doesn't develop correctly or at all. There is no way of knowing who will have them and who won't. Just relax and enjoy being pregnant!

A lot of woman lose thier first baby, but that doesn't mean you will, you need to relax or you will get stressed to much and can make your worse fear come true.

i read a book on miscarriage, i cant remember the name of it but it said that with a first pregnancy with no previous miscarriage there is a 5% chance of miscarrying. please try not to worry just get plenty of rest and look after yourself the odds are that you wont have a miscarriage

Every mom worries about this! Seriously!
But don't...there is nothing you can do to prevent one if it's going to happen, so knowing the stats will NOT help you.
Just erlax and enjoy being pregnant! It's SO COOL!

If you are in good health and not engaging in any risky behavior (drugs, alcohol, contact sports), and if you are in a doctor's care and following her advice, your chances of miscarrying are small. Your chances of having a full-term, healthy baby are very good. Congratulations.

Because of your age, the chances of you losing your baby is very slim.
