Dear Anonymous,
I have never had a miscarriage but i am pregnant now. 22 weeks. i look
up all sorts of information and when i saw your post i had to try. I
found that many women miscarry more than once in there life. 1 in 36
women will have a miscarriage due to nothing more than chance.
Miscarriage is more common after the first one. After one previous
miscarriage you have a 20% chance of another one. I pray for you that
one day you can experiece this wonderful life changing event. I think
that the lord has control of everything and if you put your faith in him
then it will happen. Good Luck!
Paige
