i had last august at my first my preg. now i'm preg at week 12.
" * n the US: The overall miscarriage rate is reported as 15-20%, which means 15-20% of recognized pregnancies result in miscarriage. The frequency of spontaneous miscarriage increases further with maternal age. With the development of highly sensitive assays for hCG levels, pregnancies can be detected prior to the expected next period. When these highly sensitive hCG assays are used early, the magnitude of pregnancy loss significantly increases to about 60-70%. Late implantation by the conceptus beyond the usual 8-10 days after ovulation also has an increased risk of miscarriage.
About 80% of miscarriages occur within the first trimester. The frequency of miscarriage decreases with an increasing gestational age. Recurrent miscarriage, defined as 2-3 pregnancy losses, affects about 1% of all couples.
* Internationally: No significant difference exists between international rates and the rates in the United States. "

I thought that number would be higher. I lost my first child last week - found out that the baby stopped growing at six weeks at my 10 week appt. I had no 'traditional' miscarriage signs and/or symptoms. She told me that 80% of women will have a miscarriage at some point but i guess the % of women who miscarry prior to even knowing they are pregnant is much higher than i thought.
So, the count for me - 1 angel in heaven / 0 babies at this point in time.

I had a miscarriage in December and got pregnant again in feb. I am now 11 weeks pregnant and everything is going well. But don't stress about M/C because stress isn't good for the baby. But if you have had a M/C, I am very sorry, I know how hard it can be. Just know that you will have another child and most M/C result from abnormalities in the baby or in the placenta. Good luck

No I havent. But my aunt just had a MC......It was most likely all the stress that she ws going through considering that she was getting ready to get married in a month and she would have to pay for it without the help of her parents. Also my mom had a MC a few years ago.

I'm not a woman but I wanted to say I heard somewhere that most women miscarry their first child.
