Pregnant after a Loss

Introduction

Hi all. I wanted to quickly introduce myself (my story is lengthy but I'll try to get to the important things). I have PCOS and went through two year of infertility to have one very successful IVF cycle in August of 2013. We got pregnant with our twin boys, Conner and Benjamin. On January 10th, 2014, we lost them due to possible IC and Chorioamnionitis. They lived for a little over two hours and were both baptized in my arms as soon as they were born by the same pastor who married my husband and I. We miss them terribly and the grief still remains, but my boys have left us a legacy of love and strength.
We had 8 frozen embryos left from our fresh IVF cycle and we transferred one very strong baby on June 18th. Today was my first beta test, which was positive at 75.9. I have been getting positive HPTs since Tuesday and am still in shock, but have no doubt that my baby boys helped us all along the way.
I am already freaking out over this pregnancy thinking that I am going to lose another baby. I don't think I can survive losing another.
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and offering support.

Congrats Krystal! Wishing you all the very best moving forward.
I just wanted to point out that it's really not okay that you continued to post on TTCAL knowing you got a positive on Tuesday. You posted in the January Snowflakes when you had already gotten your positive - that's just not okay.
Congrats!
