What percentage of pregnancies end in miscarriage?

Q: I’m 17, and 8 weeks pregnant. I’m absolutely terrified that I’ll have a miscarriage. I’m perfectly healthy, but you know, kind of young. What’s your take on this?Do you guys have any tips on being less stressed about it? I’m so worried.

A: 1 in every 3 women have a miscarriage. granted though that most of these are BEFORE the women even know. I know it sounds weird and honestly i dont know how they got it but when I first found out i was pregnant I search for the statisitics and that was the most common answer. Some say 1 in every 5 pregnancy that is KNOWN! Try not to stress yourself out. After you hit 12 weeks, your chances drop to 10% chance of miscarrying…which is a lot better then like 30-45%. Good luck sweeite.

What’s the percentage of pregnancies that end in (early) miscarriage?

Q: My mom used to teach childbirth classes in the late 80’s/ early 90’s and I remember her telling me once that it was something like 60%, with the majority of miscarriages happening before a woman even knew she was pregnant. I just found out that I’m pregnant and I’m pretty sure that I had a VERY early miscarriage at exactly the same time last year ( I was taking BC at that time, but was not when I conceived this time). Naturally, I’m worried that it might happen again. How many pregnancies end in miscarriage, at what point does this stop being a major risk? I think I also remember reading somewhere that morning sickness actually reduces your chance of miscarriage, is there any truth to this? Thanks for the info!

A: the threat of miscarriage declines rapidly once the 3 mth mark is up. the baby should be strong enough to survive at this point. just remember that a bit of bleeding in early pregnancy is said to be ok but i spotted brown discharge for the last 3 days and this morning it was red and like a period. the doctor called to tell me the the pregnancy hormone in my blood is very low and i was suffering a miscarriage. so it is important to take any bit of bleeding seriousley.i wish you every luck with your pregnancy.

What percentage of miscarriages happen AFTER the first 5 weeks?

Q: Ive been told the 25% of first time mothers have a miscarriage, but that most of them are before the mother even knows she is pregnant. Well I know that I am pregnant and Im just nervous because Im in the first trimester of my first known pregnancy and Im extremely excited to have a baby…I am 5 weeks today. What are the stats for miscarriages between 5 and 12 weeks? (Between weeks 3-4 I heard a lot happen..) Also, anything I can do to avoid it? (Even though they are usually spontaneous)

A: It is 1 out of 4 women have a miscarriage within the first 13 weeks. Usually the ones that have them before week 4 are the ones that didnt even know they where pregnant. Because they never “missed” a period. Do not worry about it too much because your chances of losing the baby decreases every week. you will be fine just take your vitamins and try to stay as stress free as possible for a little while longer. Make sure you eat well and drink plenty of water. Just take care of yourself. Good luck!
