In the video Jennie Thomas incorrectly converts one in five pregnancies resulting in a miscarriage to equaling 20% of women who get pregnant. The chance of a miscarriage is 20% per pregnancy. The chance of a women who gets pregnant just twice having a miscarriage is 36% (first pregnancy miscarried = 20%x80%, plus second pregnancy miscarried = 80%x20% and the unfortunate double miscarry 20%x20%). The more pregnancies, the greater the risk of suffering a single miscarriage. It is worrying that NHS puts out such bad science.
