I had a miscarriage in September the day before my 12 week OB visit. We had an ultrasound at 8 weeks and saw a heartbeat at 160. From the things I have read, after seeing and/or hearing a HB the chance of miscarriage drops to something like 3%.

That said, I am nervous that there is something wrong with me and it wasn't something with the baby.

My husband and I are about to start TTC again and I am nervous.

Does anyone have experience with this?

I was absolutely terrified when we started trying again after my chemical pregnancy in April. I was no where near as far along as you were, so I can only imagine the pain you experienced with that. I was left completely crippled for a while and the idea of being pregnant again was very scary. Since getting my 2nd beta result, I'm feeling much better because I never had good numbers on my first pregnancy. Just be sure that you get completely checked out and then take one day at a time. We will never feel completely at ease, but we just have to believe that it will work next time and we will be mommies!! Best of luck to you!

I wasn't really scaried to start to try again but I have been nervous this whole process. We lost our little one at 8 weeks 3 days. We had an ultrasound right at the 8 week mark and everything looked great according to our RE and 3 days later I started bleeding really bad and we lost the baby.

We just had our 1st ultrasound yesterday for this pregnancy and let me tell you I am scaried to death and cannot wait until we get to the point where I do not have to worry all the time (is there really such a time?)

But I really want to have a family and if I do not try then it will not happen.

Good luck to you I hope everything comes together for you this time.

I conceived unexpectedly in feb, saw the heartbeat was told chances were less than 4% that I would MC and told some more family members the news and went on to MC not too long after. It is completely heartbreaking. The OB said I can start trying as soon as I am emotionally ready to deal with whatever...I don't think anyone can be emotionally ready to go through that EVER. I have been trying since and cannot seem to conceive. It has been an emotional roller coaster. Went through the HSG, progesterone, and had DH checked...now am trying clomid. I was supposed to deliver Nov. 3 and the day is approaching and still no . I think it will be a hard day, though slightly better if arrives. Sorry, I am rambling. Not sure I have the right as many women on this site have been through WAY more.

Wishing you the best!
