Pregnant after a Loss

Totally irrational fear please help me

Tomorrow is my first EDD of DD that I lost in January.  I have a HUGE fear/feeling/dread that for some reason I will m/c tomorrow.  I know it sounds stupid but I cant help it.  I dont know if it is because I have been secretly freaked out by my low Beta numbers since Friday or if it is because this will be my first EDD, or just damn hormones.... I dont know.  I had to leave the gym because I was crying.  I just want to crawl into bed and pray!

Please tell me I am not the only one that had a freakout/meltdown with their EDD?

  • Not irrational or crazy at all.  My anniversary of my m/c was last Wednesday and I had this terrible fear that something was going to happen.

    Try not to worry!  I will say lots of prayers for you.

  • I dont think its irrational at all. I would probably feel the same way. I'll keep you and baby in my thoughts.
  • I'm having a similar fear.  Tonight's a year since I had my first mc and I can't help but think that given everything we've been through it would totally be our luck to miscarry on this "anniversary."  I try to remind myself that what will be, will be, and all of the worry in the world won't change the outcome so I should just relax.  That's all the advice I can offer.  Take it easy and hang in there!

     

  • I haven't reached my first EDD yet, but I can imagine how worried you must be. I hope you make it through the day okay & I'll be sending you  positive vibes!

  • I know it's hard not to think about...but stay strong and pray. Maybe go to bed early tonight and get some extra rest, it always seemed to help!

  • It is not irrational to be afraid! But...tomorrow is your chance to TAKE BACK YOUR DAY. Do something nice for yourself and in memory the LO you lost of AND for your newest little one. Make it a day to celebrate all the roads that have brought you to where you are now.

    I have not had an EDD since being pg so I cannot imagine how scared you are. But I know you are strong and you can do this!

  • Thanks Ladies.  DH is taking the day off tomorrow and we are going to drive up the coast to Santa Barbara... he can still enjoy wine tasting.  We had this planned before we found out we were pg so it will be a nice get away.  I know tomorrow will be sad/hard but it will be so nice to spend some quality time with DH, tonight on the other hand... I am a mess.
