Re: Re: mc dread!

Lauren

I am 31 with three kids and experienced the symptoms of MC as a child and recently was diagnosed.I wanted to tell that I had dream pregnancies. I had natural labor with my first only lasting 5 hours and 20 min of pushing. I did have stiffness in my legs during my contractions something my friends didn't have so I am sure it was the MC. My second pregnancy was twins that I carried 4 days shy of full term and had a c section w/ a spinal. I was up and at the zoo 9 days later. I fell once on stairs( i think I was wearing shoes I shouldn't have been) with my son but didn't hurt him. I try to realize my limits and I am extra careful because of it. I am sure you will be fine. Stressing makes it worse so relax and enjoy the wonderful time in your life
