Success after two losses (currently pregnant)
Hey lovely people,
I just want to start by saying my heart goes out to anyone who is going through a difficult time. ❤️
I’ve had two miscarriages. The first was last August at 12 weeks. It was a missed miscarriage. We saw a heartbeat at around 5 weeks and 6 days, but at the follow-up scan there was no longer any heartbeat. It was honestly such a confusing and heartbreaking experience.
My second miscarriage was in February 2026. That pregnancy ended around 7 weeks, and unfortunately we never saw a heartbeat or even a yolk sac.
Something I’ve been thinking about is that with both pregnancies, I never really had any pregnancy symptoms.
I’m now pregnant again after a Letrozole cycle and am currently 4 weeks and 5 days. I still don’t have any symptoms, and my brain automatically jumps to thinking something must be wrong. I know it’s still very early and symptoms can come later, but because of my previous losses, I keep comparing everything to those pregnancies where I was also waiting for symptoms that never came.
I have my 7-week scan on the 20th of July, and the anxiety is honestly overwhelming. I keep wondering what the chances are of everything being okay this time, especially given my history and the lack of symptoms.
I’m also taking 400 mg of progesterone twice a day as an extra precaution.
For anyone who’s been through something similar:
Is having no symptoms at this stage actually normal?
What are the chances of a healthy pregnancy after two miscarriages?
How did you cope with the anxiety while waiting for your scan?
I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences. Thank you. 🤍
