Answer 1

I was once told that most women experience a miscarriage within there lifetime, and that its usually there first pregnancy. Alot of women experience discomfort in their lower abdomen, its actually normal to have a light cramping, anything more is worrysome. I'm sure your fine, quit worrying and enjoy your pregnancy!

Answer 2

Many women that miscarry early go on to have succesful pregnancies. Did you know that 60% of pregnancies end in miscarriage?Most of them in the early stages before the woman even knows she's pregnant, what she thinks is her period is actually a miscarriage. Most pregnancies that end in miscarriage in the early weeks are due to chromosomal abnormalities and are nature's way of preventing the birth of children that would have some sort of disorder or are fetuses that simply do not have the capacity to ever become a human being. As a woman's body ages it loses some of these mechanisms, that's why certain disorders such as Down's Syndrome and certain birth defects are more common in women over 35. You most likely did not miscarry because of anything you ate, drank or did, so don't ever feel guilty. I know it's hard...I'm about 90% I miscarried once, didn't even know that I was pregnant, but it took me a couple of months to move past it. But it's definitely a good sign that you were able to conceive again! Be sure and ask your doctor lots of questions at your next visit, what to do, if you're at risk for another miscarriage, what not to eat, etc. Try to avoid the tuna it's full of mercury--not good for baby. It's never too early for an ultrasound, though I don't believe the heartbeat is detectable til 10 wks, though I'm not 100% on that. As for the "bubbly feeling" or "discomfort", it's most likely just gas like you said or your uterus expanding to make room for the growing baby. Should you start bleeding or having period-like cramps, consult a doctor ASAP. Untill then, don't stress too much and congratulations on the pregnancy! Good luck :)

yes i went through this and know exactly how you feel. I had two miscarriages and was so discourage. I kept asking myself what am i doing wrong to deserve this? I know you are excited for the fact that you are pregnant but yet all you could think about is having another miscarriage. Try not to stress yourself out to much. I know it's easier to be said than done. Once you go to your first visit you should feel calm. At 7 wks you may be able to detect the baby's heartbeat. But than again every woman is pregnant. I am now 19 wks pregnant with my third tried. There is not a day I don't think about miscarriage myself. I wish you the best of luck and congrats

Answer 4

I had a miscarage at 11 weeks and then went on to have two healthy girls (9lbs 5 oz and 9lbs 2 oz) with no problems. The crampy feeling is just the implantation or your uterus changing. I wish you the best of luck!! I remember those anxious days until you hit the 12 week mark :)
You did not do any damage eating the tuna, but I would not eat any more from now on. There can be to much mercury in tuna.

Answer 6

First of all if he is indeed cheating, he is a SCUMBAG for subjecting a 7 year relationship all for someone else without even having enough respect for you to just end things like a mature and normal person should. Last year I went through a divorce from an almost 7 year relationship where my bastard of an ex-husband was cheating on me again. You need to realize that if he is cheating then you need to let him break up with you and you need to move on and realize that your life is better off without him because you deserve better then this. I know it hurts and it is extremely difficult and lonely, trust me I know, read some of the first questions I asked on here, but your happiness should not be dependent on someone else and you need some counseling if you are considering suicide because of some idiot who doesn't realize or appreciate what he has. Good luck to you but get rid of this as*hole and working on finding happiness and some self-esteem independent of a man or anyone else. Take care and good luck : )

Answer 7

Its not likely that you will hear a heart beat until twelve weeks. You can have or ask for an ultra sound. If you get one, ask the tech to print you out a pic. I think it sounds like you have gas, or a little bit of morning sickness. I wouldn't try to worry to much about it. Worrying to much can harm the baby if you are under too much stress. Good luck and congratulations.

Answer 8

I'm sure you will have a healthy pregnancy. I know many women who have had healthy a baby after miscarrying, in fact 25% of women have a miscarriage so it's common. If you have a sonogram you will be able to see and hear the heart beating. Good luck.

Answer 9

just relax till you have your appointment.....they will do an ultrasound to make sure everything is going ok....i just had my first visit two weeks ago. the heartbeat wont be detectable untill you are 12 weeks along. before i had my appointment two weeks ago, i was nervous, anxious, and worried...you only have a few more days till your visit, so untill then, enjoy being pregnant, and dont be afraid to discuss any concerns with your doctor! i hope everything goes great, take care! congrats!

If you are worried about possibly misscarrying this baby then please visit the link below and then discuss it with your doctor.

Up to fifteen percent of recurrent pregnancy failures may be caused by a little known autoimmune disease called APS. But the problem isn’t often caught until after the fact.
