Does everyone miscarry at some point?

Question

I'm about to stop using any apps because all I see is how people miscarried a previous pregnancy or just found out they miscarried...it's too stressful to read about miscarriages every day! It's really sad for those mommies and I can't imagine the pain but now I'm so WORRIED.

Answer

Miscarriage is common. 1 in 4 pregnancys will end in mc. It's a fact. I have been through it myself and without these boards I wouldn't have gotten through! 
Everyone is anxious even us that have suffered a loss.. It's natural all we want is to make it to that safe point but reality is not all of us will. 
We need to learn to relax and know that what ever happens will happen, no matter what we do you cant stop a mc. Knowing my body was able to detect somthing wasn't right with the pregnancey or baby makes it slightly easier to handle.
I think these apps are brilliant and this board in particular has a lot of lovely helpful women on. I think we need to be positive and be ther for the women that have to go through such a thing. Just because they mc doesn't mean you will
I wish you all the luck in the world.. But trust me stressing isn't going to help you 💗

Answer

Omg I thought I was the only one thinking this! I'm gonna keep the apps because they're super helpful but trying to limit what I read in the chats, at least until I'm further along. This is my first pregnancy too so I just want to focus on EVERYTHING positive, especially my thoughts. It can happen but that doesn't mean it'll happen to you.

Answer

I'm sorry but I miscarried twice and it happens in 1 in 4 pregnancies unfortunately there's nothing that anyone can do about it. I love my angel babies and I always think of them and I am currently pregnant with my rainbow baby and I hate seeing that a woman lost their baby but they post so other women can support them. If you don't like it don't read it. 
I don't stress because this is I'm gods hands and he knows what he is doing

Answer

I am super high stress/high anxiety and get the same way. Every time I get on these apps it seems like every single person has miscarried, and I don't want to sound insensitive but I feel like there should be a whole seperate thread for those individuals. The chance of miscarriage is actually really low, and worrying and stressing about it is the least thing we should be doing! It's bad for baby! As long as you are doing everything you can, eating healthy, taking your prenatals, don't drink or smoke. Try not to worry! My doctor even told me to stay off these apps and stay off the internet because of all the negativity.

Answer

You have to realise that miscarriages are EXTREMELY common.. 50% of pregnancies end in miscarriage.. Yeah it's terrifying.. and depressing but we are all here to support eachother through out our journies.. It's life and it isn't fair.

Answer

I had a chemical pregnancy a few months ago and I even don't like reading about other people's MCs because it gets me paranoid. But it is also a great place for support because it is fairly common. Doctors and stuff don't seem to do much with early mc because they are common and most of the time you don't need any medical intervention. So this might be people's only outlet.

Even though I had a mc last time, I very optimistic about this one. Most mc are because of chromosomal abnormalities. I think if you have a strong, healthy baby growing, the odds of mc are slim.

Don't stress, odds are 75% in your favor and they increase each day you continue to carry your baby 😊

Answer

I'm not sure if I have mc, but I think I did at some point, I just didn't really know it at the time. I haven't been on bc for several years. The summer before last I went 8 weeks without a period and then had a really terrible period with lots of bleeding and tissue/clotting (my normal periods I don't bleed much). I never got a positive hpt and I never went to the doctor for blood work. My doc said it probably was a mc but I just don't know for sure. My doc also says people probably mc often and don't know it, and have chemical pregnancies. I think that's part of the "danger" of finding out so soon. You get so attached to the idea of being pregnant and then when you mc is devastating. I would just advise you to not read the bad things and focus on the good. I even have to remind myself this and I had a perfectly healthy first pregnancy. What will happen, will happen and there really not much you can do about it... there's definitely not any benefit in worrying about it. I did make myself a wreck my first pregnancy worrying, so this time I want to try to just enjoy it.

Answer

I did a poll a few days ago. It was tied between never had a problem and 1-2 miscarriages. They were about 45% each. I think most have no problems. They're just the nervous ones with experience in what all the nervous mommies are going through. Chin up. Everyone stops getting nervous after their 6-8wk apt.

Answer

I've never had one but I had a scare this pregnancy and with all I read on here I freaked out. Thankfully all is well with peanut.  Just try to not stress it too much. Maybe if you can try to avoid posts that seem to be worrisome that can help?

Answer

Imagine if that was u....not to be mean but I went through it too about 7 years ago and it's something that u will never forget. Try to have some sympathy for others. We as women don't have any say in the miscarriage.  It just happens. I have read that it does increases chances if you eat or do certain things.
