Q: Sign and symptom's

Hi I had 2 miscarriages last year. I just found put I was 5 weeksand 5 days. I am little scared to tell anyone. I go to the OB for blood work tomorrow. But my question is I never knew I that I miscarried with both of the others until the I went to hear the heart beat. One at 16 weeks and the other at 6 weeks. So needless to say I am really scared. This time I have a heaviness in lower abdomen. Is it normal or should I call?

2 miscarriages myself. Currently 6w3d pregnant and I haven't told anyone. I am going to wait...12 weeks I think before I tell. I know exactly what you are going through ...

Yes I've had two mc too and what you are feeling is normal but if you try and go by symptoms you'll drive yourself crazy. Ann is right the best thing you can do is relax and pray. It's so hard not to freak out once you've gone through that. I had a scare this pregnancy and it started the way my other mc did with bleeding but now everything is fine so as long as you aren't bleeding try not to put too much emphasis on the other symptoms. Good luck to you.

I've had several miscarriages also. 2 naturally, and 2 like yours, where i didn't know until i went for the first scan. There really is no way to know for sure what's going on in there until you go for the first ultrasound. Some heaviness in the lower abdomen is normal in pregnancy, it's the increased blood flow to the area. All you can really do is behave as though you are, for sure, pregnant. No drinking, smoking and take those prenatal vitamins everyday. DH and I didn't tell anyone with this pregnancy until we got to 10 weeks. We had done 2 ultrasounds by then, both showing a healthy, heart beating baby. It was hard to keep it a secret but after having so many miscarriages, i just couldn't bear the thought of telling people and then having to tell them we lost it... again. Hopefully this is the one for you :-)

just be at ease and pray. every pregnancy is different. I had 2 mc this yr too and i really had a difficult time waiting and waiting until my next scan so I can be able to see him or hear his HB from doppler. just take care of urself and relax and leave evrything in God's hands.
