What you're feeling is perfectly normal. And consider yourself blessed to have gotten pregnant again so quickly! You do need to relax, though. Stressing out about another miscarriage isn't good for either you or the baby. Keep in mind that 90% of all 1st pregnancies end in miscarriage, and that during the second pregnancy, that risk decreases greatly.

I had a miscarriage at only 5w6d and I was paranoid about another one this pregnancy until after the first trimester, but not so paranoid to freak out about it. My symptoms were quite different with this pregnancy and my HCG levels were really good (I had a sticky baby).


BTW, that is somthing that they can do for you. I found out that I was pregnant this time at 3 weeks (it was a Wednesday) that Friday they had me go in and they checked my HCG levels. They can definately do that for you so maybe you'll want to request that. Good Luck and let me know how it all works out!
