How common is it to have a miscarriage before you end up successfully pregnant?

Question

btw I am not trying to have a baby

I am just curious

Answer 1

Miscarriages happen to every woman actually, but most woman do not notice it. It's nature's way of getting rid of a bad egg or even to avoid the egg growing in a less than desirable environment. So yes, every woman technically has a miscarriage. So it happens a good amount of times.

Answer 2

Well. I dont really know the stats, But all i can say is that i was pregnant (my 1st ever pregnancy) and miscarried at around 6 weeks pregnant..

I fell pregnant straight after..

Didnt even have a "normal preiod"..

I am now almost 23 weeks pregnant, and everything is going great (touchwood)..

Answer 3

i have been very lucky and ive never miscarried im 20 weeks pregnant with #2

Answer 4

it varies from person to person. every pregnancy has about a 20% chance of ending in an early miscarriage. many of those happen before the first period is ever missed and the woman doesn't even know she is pregnant. however some women are more prone to having miscarriages due to some anatomical or hormonal issue. i have a friend who had 6 miscarriages before she was finally able to carry a pregnancy to term. my first pregnancy ended at 5 weeks and i am now 32 weeks pregnant.

Answer 5

It's pretty common.

Answer 6

It varies from woman to woman. I have one healthy child and have had four miscarriages. We desperately want another child but have been unable to carry one to term. My OB said that women can get pregnant and then miscarry by the time their period is due and not even know so ther actual percentage is far higher than we have statistics to prove.
