Pregnant after 3 miscarriages and 1 ectopic

Prior to my ectopic in June I had 3 miscarriages the year before (2 chemical and 1 missed miscarriage). I have just found out I am pregnant and feel like I am waiting for something to go wrong. I have a scan booked in two weeks (if I get that far).

Has anyone else experienced miscarriage as well as ectopic?

Thank you

Hi Amx,

Whispered congratulations on your pregnancy. These early days can feel very anxious especially after experiencing miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies. You are not alone in these feelings. Having had both multiple ectopics and miscarriages, I was also very sceptical of early pregnancy outcomes.

It’s good that you have a scan scheduled. I realise it is easier to say than to do, but do try to be kind to yourself and not worry too much. Look out for any symptoms that would require medical attention, but also do your best to relax into these early days.

Please know that we are here for you anytime - to ask questions, to share or just to vent.

With good wishes,

Michele

Hi Amx

I have been pregnant 5 times. I have one son and am currently 20 weeks pregnant with another boy. I have had two miscarriages and one ectopic resulting in a tube removal.

It’s so terrifying in the early days but I’m wishing you all the luck in the world. Get yourself an early scan at 6 weeks to be a littl reassured.

I was convinced I was going to have another loss and although I’m still not that chilled yet as I have another 20 weeks to go, I’m more hopeful than before.

Thinking of you x

Thank you for your replies and congratulations on your pregnancy, it’s reassuring to hear that things can work out. I’m trying to relax at such a worrying time.
