    Poor you! Lost 2 myself last year and am expecting again now. I know it's really hard but the only thing you can do is try and keep calm and look after yourself the best you can. Believe me I know how difficult that is, we were barely on speaking terms some days especially as we got to the same stage as the last times and stressed over everything. I found that my friends were great and let me go round and rant at them when I needed and just listened to me which helped me get things off my chest and into some perspective. The bounty site has a section for anyone who's lost any and is now pregnant and everyone seems very reassuring on it (www.bounty.co.uk), helped me just to let off steam to people who'd been/are going through the same emotions as me. Good luck, will be thinking of you xx

    Hi, So sorry to hear about your previous losses. I know how you feel, I have had previous miscarriages, but I am now 36 weeks pregnant with my first. It's impossible for me to tell you to relax, cause I know you wont be able to not matter how much you want to. Take each day as it comes, try as much as you can to relax. How many weeks are you now?
    I agree with what has been said and try to let off as much steam as you can, chat rooms are a great idea, if you can't get online then I found writing what I was feeling down a huge help. Take care, good luck and let us know how you are doing. xx

    Hi Gail, im sorry to hear about your previous misscariages, it must have been awful for you. I dont think theres anything that anyone can say or do to make you feel more relaxed about this pregnancy. Talking about it with friends, family and on internet might be a release. Do you think you will be more relaxed when you reach a certain stage in pregnancy? You could hire a doppler to listen to babys heart but you wont be able to hear heart until after 10 wks. I hope all goes well for you, im sure it will, love and best wishes Debbie x
