first trimester 4 times. whatever is giving you the stress get rid of it.
I haven’t, but know a woman who was in the first month of her second trimester and miscarried due to stress from her failing marriage.
Good luck!
i know someone who had 3 miscarriages… first were twins too, and all 3 were in the 1st trimester.
it’s ok don’t worry, hopefully your baby will be fine…go to ur doctor always to make sure.
Yes, Just once i was 11wks, I went in for an ultrasound and things looked OK but not great my doctor told me not to worry but i did tremendously and i went back again for another scan and things were not so good the next time around. Whattever stresses you out to the point you know you are MAXED out, relax and find something to relieve it, its not good for baby let alone yourself!
i felt like i was going to because of the fighting with my husband, and getting kicked out of the place we were renting by my own grandmother for BS reasons, and drama with my mom…. i’d get really stressed & started cramping & it was so scary!! (it was one reason i couldn’t quit smoking right off–it took me the whole 1st trimester because it was the only thing that made the cramping stop & let me calm down!)
i have a friend that went into preterm labor at 33 wks due to stress from her relationship with the father. (baby is ok now tho)
if it’s your job quit… if it’s your husband tell his mother..(make sure that she knows that you’re pregnant and worried about a miscarriage)… nothing is worth that much stress… go stay with your parents to get away from him if necessary..
good luck and god bless!!
Stress in one of the bigger causes of miscarriage. Is there any resources you can contact for prenatal stress management?
The problem is that there really is no way to determine if stress is the cause of the miscarriage in most cases. For instance, if you are going through a divorce, and miscarry, it COULD have been stress related and it could have just as easily been a miscarriage that was going to happen anyway.
You also have to separate out physical stress from emotional stress. For certain, physical stress can cause a miscarriage. Less certain is emotional stress except maybe if you are in a bad domestic abuse situation (kindof like a war zone).
When a woman miscarries there is no way to determine if it’s stress related as posted before. I agree that physical stress is a lot more harmful than emotional stress. Don’t get me wrong, it’s best for you and the baby to be stress free and to relax. However, that is rarely possible.
Most miscarriages occur because of a genetic problem and the pregnancy is unable to continue on. Another source of cause of miscarriage is a physical problem with the mother that causes a miscarriage.
I went through great stress with my first pregnancy and he’s 7 now.
my ex’s mother lost her baby at 5 months due to all the stress and crap her husband put her through.
