So nervous something will go wrong

I'm blessed to be pregnant with my 3rd child, Im currently 10 weeks pregnant and already had a viability scan due to bleeding at 7 weeks and luckily everything was OK but I can't help feeling really nervous and thinking the worst will happen at my 12 week scan, I've previously had a miscarriage which still haunts me to this day that it was my fault Im just feeling scared.

Miscarriages are really common (most of my friends with children have had one and gone on to have healthy children afterwards). Most such miscarriages mean the embryo wasn’t viable- there’s nothing you can do to prevent miscarriage if this is the case. If you’ve already had two healthy pregnancies then it’s very likely that this one will be healthy too. Worrying is normal but keep looking after yourself as then you’ll know you’ve done everything you can to look after your baby. Your miscarriage was not your fault, please don’t beat yourself up about it.

The miscarriage association or Tommy’s are good people to turn to if you need more reassurance xx

Hi Millie. I'm totally in the same boat. I'm 9&5 weeks. I had a miscarriage at exactly the same point & time of year 3 years ago. I am a nervous wreck, I can't sleep, relax and my moods are... I'm googling every day & I'm certain something is going to go wrong. I think this is the worse wait yet! Even though everyone says "you'll be fine" it doesn't help does it. My scan is the 10th Jan. Do message me if you want a chat to someone in the same boat. Xxx

I'm so sorry to hear this it really is awful, any slight pain or niggle you fear the worst! I am guilty of looking at Google a lot too. Nobody seems to understand n my family aren't best pleased about this pregnancy either so feel I have nobody to air my fears too I can't wait until 8th Jan. Aww your scan is 2 days after mine I have my fingers crossed that you will see a healthy baby wriggling away 😘. Thank you xx

Wishing you all the best too. I hope you can try to have a "relax" tomorrow.
