Pregnant after a Loss

Introduction

Hello! My name is Pehrie; I am 23 and my husband is 24. We lost our first son, named Jack, to an umbilical cord accident at 39 weeks and 3 days on May 1st of 2014. I thought I was in labor, was told otherwise and had to be induced... Although we weren't trying, it seems I am pregnant again. I am already crazy protective over this baby but am completely terrified of losing it too... I say the mantras, but... Well, I am sure you all know how it goes. I suppose I am just looking for support, understanding, and to give myself some small purpose by encouraging others. My dating scan will be on September 8th, and we will also find out how many are in there at that time. I have the strangest and strongest feeling that "it" is a "they". Thank you and may your pregnancies be perfect. :)
"I hate the term 'we're expecting'. Expecting indicates that there could be more than one outcome. To me, that term could be properly finished with any number of things, like, 'We're expecting a baby, but it could be a velociraptor..."
