Pregnant after a Loss

expecting

My husband and I got pregnant right away when we started trying around November of 2013. We were super excited when we found out you don't really think of something going wrong. We went for our First U/S in Jan of 2014 we should have been around 8weeks, we found out we were only measuring around 6 weeks 5 days. They had us schedule another u/s for around 10 days later where we had the same results. We later went through the whole D& C process and then waited to try again. We are now 20 weeks pregnant with a little boy, However I have a hard time staying positive the whole time after every U/S or Doctors appointment I am worried something will go wrong with this pregnancy as well. Anyone else been through this and do you have any thoughts or ideas that helped you not stress about the pregnancy the whole time?

  • I also had a loss at the same time you did last year, very similar situation (my 3rd). I find myself nervous a lot of the time and was particularly a wreck in the beginning. I do find relief now because I can feel the little guy moving around which makes me far more comfortable (almost 30 wks now). It's scary not knowing what is happening in there. Don't forget you are half way there! You are not alone in how you are feeling.
  • Thanks everyone, I just started to feel my little guy moving which I think will help with my nerves about the whole thing.
