Pregnancy after miscarriage

Re: Repost to my post on pregnancy..

first.. Congrats!!

and second.. i am right there with you
i am 7 weeks today.. and i can't even enjoy any bit of it. i am scared to death, and every little thing i have to question..
like when i pee.. i always have to look in the toilet to make sure there is no blood.
its just hard .. i think its all natural..
but we can't stress out.. we have to stay positive.. and thats what i have been trying to do.


hang in there!!

I certainly am going to feel the same when I hopefully get pg again I guess having a miscarriage takes away some of the carefree excitment.

You are just going to have to try to enjoy it I think...sit down and relax every day and be thankful that you soon will have your little one.

Re: Repost to my post on pregnancy..

I can totally relate. I just got my BFP on Tues. and since then...I haven't had any real symptoms (other than mild cramps and being thirsty which happened to me last PG) So I am SO paranoid! I'm still not even 5 weeks yet, so I am assuming the lack of symptoms should be ok.

I had a dentist appt. on the day i found out, and I had to tell the dentist...and of course now the whole office knows and it was hard for me to act excited in front of them. The dentist was saying things like..."you should get a cleaning in your second trimester...good luck with the baby, etc, etc."...and all i kept thinking was..."yeah, if there IS a baby" "If i MAKE it to my second tri"

When i MC i was 7-8 weeks, so you'd think i'd feel in the clear after my first appointment...but i know i will still be paraoid b/c i know people and have had friends who have MC later than that.

Anyway, congrats on your pregnancy and good luck! Try to enjoy this time while you can.

Re: Repost to my post on pregnancy..

I think your feelings are totally justified!! I know I will be the same way when my time comes. Just think though, you are already past the riskiest part and you are further then your last pregnancy so that should make you feel alittle better. I know for me, once I get past 7 weeks (since thats when my last ended) I will feel a little better.

Congratulations!! And try to hang in there. Im sure everything will be just fine!!

Re: Repost to my post on pregnancy..

FIRST CONGRATS!!! You have every reason to feel the way you do... honestly i think it's very normal. I had my first m/c in 2006 at 10wks. Then got pregnat and was terrified, but I now have a beautiful 2 yr DS, had another mc 9 months ago at 9-10wks.. and still trying... part of me is petrified to do this again, but the other part of me will do anything to be able to have another baby! Hang in there! You are doing GREAT!! You're already out of the first trimester... that's the hardest part. Try and enjoy!!

Congrats!

I imagine that when I become PG again, I will feel just the same way you do. I think it is very natural to be worried about something going on after experiencing such a trauma. Just try to think positive thoughts as much as you can, take deep breaths when you are feeling anxious, and try to picture your beautiful baby in your arms.

Congrats on your pregnancy!

I think your feelings are completely justified and natural. All the worrying will have been worth it though, when you are holding your little one

Re: Repost to my post on pregnancy..

Congratulations to you & your DH! That is so exciting. I think it is so normal too feel so nervous and anxious after having a m/c. I often think about that myself....how i will worry and read into every mild symptom possible. It is scary.

The good news is your are pregnant!!!! You are out of the 1rst trimester & things are going very well. Try to relax....think about holding your child in a few months. It will all be ok...and you & your baby are fine.

We are all here to chat when ever you need reassurance.
