Since my friend had a miscarriage early last year, I've had an irrational phobia of having a miscarriage when I get pregnant. I am not even planning to have a baby for a few years yet, but I keep thinking about it. How do I stop this??

when I was younger I used to worry about this too - in the end i got pregnant with my older child and everything went well - I am now pregnant again and i do sometimes worry but thats what the doctors are there for!!!

Themore you think about it the more its going to happen!!

Sorry to sound really harsh but its true, you need to focus on having a baby not loosing it!

If you stress yourself worrying youll loose it you WILL.

I have miscarried in the very early stages of pregnancy and know its a horrible thing to happen but if it does happen there is always a good reason its happened, in my case my body wasnt fully from the caesarean i had months before. In some other cases its because the baby willl have serious defects and sometimes it happens because of the stress a woman is under.
There are many reasons they are to name a few.

Please think about this try to relax, if you still cant go to the docs and get some medication or soemthing but one thing is for sure your alot higher risk of miscarrying yourself when you should want children if you havent learnt to relax.

Good luck Hun

Its a game of chance , when you look at it ,conceiving is very much hit and miss.its totaly out of our hands and thus hard not to stress over it.
Although stress is bad only a life altering amount of stress will do any harm if any .
Look at all the women who have babys when there hooked on drugs etc and the women in third word countrys having babys!
I have had 3 misscarrages and it broke my heart every time but i ve come to realise its something you cannot stop if it is going to happen.
Its quite common(sadly)i think its 1 in 4 pregnancys end in misscarrage.
Just try to accept that it MAY happen but dont dwel because it WILL drive you mad
