Chances of miscarriage after 8 weeks?

Question

I seen heartbeat at 165bpm but I have also had a stillborn at 22 weeks and 2 missed miscarriages after (where I didn’t even see the heartbeat). It was a relief to see the heartbeat this time around. What are the chances of miscarriage after that??  Thanks:)

Answer

There’s a website that can tell you. Look up miscarriage risk calculator, I found it very reassuring

Answer

The risk of miscarriage after a heart beat is seen at 8 weeks or later is really low! For you though, I think it’ll also depend on the reason for your stillbirth. I’m sorry for your loss. ❤️

Answer

I know they say the chances of miscarriage lower significantly after seeing the heartbeat at 8 weeks. With my first pregnancy though everything was perfect at my 8 week ultrasound. Baby stopped growing shortly after but I didn't find out until my body started to miscarry at 12 weeks. For every pregnancy after that I don't stop worrying until I get to the 12 weeks appointment and hear baby's heartbeat. Praying you have a happy healthy 9 months this time around.

Answer

Depending upon which study you read, the risk of miscarriage after seeing a healthy heartbeat at 6/7 weeks is somewhere around 9-10%. That risk drops with each passing week. After the first trimester, you risk of a miscarriage or stillbirth is somewhere between 1-2%.
