what should i do?

I'm 19 (ill be 20 August 5th) and my boyfriend is 21, because of some issues with our house I now live with my grandma and he's living with his dad. We found out 2 weeks ago that we're going to have a little one, I've had two miscarriages in the past with my ex (one when I was 16 and one when I was 18) so I'm not wanting to tell my family until I'm out of the first trimester, just in case. But my boyfriend told his dad, without telling me he was going to, yesterday. Should I go ahead and tell my family? I'm worried I'll miscarry again and I don't want to have to tell my parents I lost another baby. I'm not doing anything I shouldnt be, so I don't know why I miscarry.

I would say to go to your obgyn and tell him/her you've had two miscarriages before. He is going to put you as high risk and check on you often. Tell your family when you think is best. Some people wait until they are out of the first trimester.

Deff go to the doctor and let them check your hormone levels and things and watch you closely. You may not miscarry this one since you are with someone different now. It could have just been that his chromosomes in his sperm were defective. Good luck dear. Let us know how it turns out.

The guy I miscarried with has a 3 year old and another baby due in September of this year. So I'm worried I'm the problem. And I told the doctor already. She doesn't have me coming in again till the 14th

I've had four miscarriages and told my mom when I was 8 weeks. I was overly anxious about another miscarriage. She has helped me through a lot of stress and I'm now 21 weeks. Sometimes miscarriages happen because something is wrong with the baby or it just doesn't take. Best thing you can do is go to the doctor and tell them your history. Hopefully it works out this time for you.

I had two miscarriages in my second trimester one at 18 weeks one at 19+6 now I'm 23 weeks pregnant with a little girl :) I'm sure things  will work out this time have faith. And the Dr may not have schedule you sooner BC there isn't much they can do if you're already pregnant.  If its going to happen nothing they do will stop it. Usually if you have had a miscarriage they check a lot of stuff before you get pregnant again.. bestbof luck
