I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. With any pregnancy, the chance is
1 in 5 for a miscarriage SO you have the same chance of a successful
pregnancy as the general populaiton - 80%!
And the light cramping is very common and very normal.
Good luck.
Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
