I had a miscarriage about 2 years ago. I now just found out that I am pregnant again going on 2 months. I made my doctors appt in May but since they book ahead of time I will need to wait until the 24th of the month 2 weeks away. My question is until I get to the doctor what should I do to avoid the chances of miscaring again?

The first time I did not take care of myself as I should have but now I am taking vitamins and relaxing more and not getting angry as much.

Does anyone have any suggestions or has anyone had a miscariage and then had a normal pregnancy the second time around? Also what questions and precautions should I ask when I see my doctor?
:confused:

It is certainly normal to be concerned of the past being repeated. You are doing all that you can really do. The majority of miscarriages occur due to developmental reasons, not from something the mother does. Taking care of yourself, eating well, making any lifestyle changes that you know would be healthy... these are the things that you have control over.
