Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Who is scared to get KU again?

We'd like one more baby in a few year but, I am really scared of being pregnant again (even though the outcome is beyond worth it)

I had a missssssserable pregnancy. Puking for 9 months, 4 hospitalizations, and 2 weeks of hospital bedrest which led to a fail induction turned c-section bc of pre-e.

I'm scared shitless. But, then I look at DS and I'd re-do every minute of it.

But, at the same thought..it terrifies me.

Re: Who is scared to get KU again?

  • I am scared to death. I am done and do not want anymore.

  • Me!

    It's going to be about birth control pills and condoms for a while.  Much to FI chagrin.

  • Oh god, me!  I hated being pregnant.  And I'm so not ready for another one.

  • My pregnancy wasn't bad... but I'm afraid of a repeat c-section (or the recovery from it, rather) and now since we're meeting with neurosurgeouns regarding DS's odd-shaped head and possible surgery, I'm scared shitless to even think about more kids.   :(
  • I do not forsee any more pregnancies in my future.  If DD didn't already have a half brother, I would def have another, but thankfully for him...I am done!!!
  • Me!!!  We want babiess close in age...but not just yet!  I still have to lose my pancake flap tummy! LOL!

  • Im FF and still have not started my period.  FREAKIN!  I Have a boy and girl and want to be done. When do u? LO is 7 weeks tomorrow
  • I'm VERY scared, at least for now. With our situation, it would kinda suck and make things very hard, but we would find a way to make it work. We would like to have another but not for a few years. Plus I am scared of the  c-section again after what happend last time (feeling everything)

  • I had a rough PG too and 55% of me wants to wait a few years but 45% of me wants to do it again right away so i can more quicklyget done with the misery of pregnancy.  Weird reasoning I know, but we'll wait.

  • DH is scared....I like to tease him Big Smile

    Actually, I wouldn't want to be pregnant again right now because I'm still healing from the c-section, but if I were to get pregnant right now, I think I'd handle it well and be excited.

  • I loved being pregnant but we do not want to try again until DD is at least one. So, yes, I am scared to get KU again right now!

  • Me. I was incredibly lucky to have a fairly easy pregnancy and c-section recovery, but the first week and a half DS was home was such a nightmare-super fussy, seemed like he was crying all the time-that DH and I are thinking of becoming members of the "one and done" club.  Could not imagine going through this again, especially with another child at home.
  • Since we have no intention of having anymore I can say yes, I'm scared

    sh!tless of getting pg again.

  • I am terrified!!!!!  I need things to get back to normal for a while.  I could not handle having another baby right now!

    This!  I'd like to wait until DS is around a year before thinking about TTC again!

  • I am scared to be pregnant with a child.  I could barely get myself off the couch during 1st trimester.  I can't imagine watching a child.

  • I had a wonderful pregnancy and miss it every day although I am enchanted with my little boy. I would enjoy being pregnant still, but not a new pregnancy. Things would be pretty rough if we had a new baby right away.

  • I'd be scared to get pregnant right now. I wanted to try for #2 when DD is around 15 months. DH doesn't know this yet.

    I loved being pregnant and am thankful for an easy pregnancy and L&D, but I'm scared the next one won't go as smoothly.

  • I loved being PG, but I am sooo not ready right now!
  • I had a really easy pregnancy, birth was really fast, easy to recover from, pretty easy baby so far...we're still "one and done".  We always thought we'd have just one, now that he's here, we're sure.

    Everyone tells us we should have more cause everything went so smoothly with this one.  Uh, ever hear of no two pregnancies or babies are alike.  That's not gonna convince me people!

  • I'm scared to death
  • Me! I'm afraid of the pregnancy though... my pg's with my boys were terrible! The first was an emerg c/s, second was repeat c/s.... I was in and out of the hospital with both, m/s 1st and 2nd tri's, severe back pain, and it was ot fun! The outcome is beautiful though, and worth all that pain; but we'd like to wait a few years for the next and hopefully the last one.

    I didn't get mine until this past week...9 weeks after DS was born. And I exclusively FF. I did pump for about a week after DS was born and my OB said maybe that is why mine took a while...who knows!

  • ME! We had a terrifying delivery. Emergency C-section due to placental abruption. I was knoced out and DH was not allowed in the room. So neither one of us saw her born, which may have been a good thing since she was not breathing when she was delivered. She had seizures over night and was transport the following morning to a different hospital's NICU. I spent the 1st 4 days of her life in a separate hospital. They have no explanation as to what caused the abruption and I fear I will be a (more than normal) nervous wreck the entire next pregnancy.....

  • We really want more. But I seriously don't know if I could survive it if I got pregnant again anytime soon. 6 weeks of bed rest, preemie in the NICU for 2 weeks, pre-e that got worse after delivery (I am STILL on meds). Financially it would ruin us, emotionally and physically I think it would break me. I had the Mirena inserted one week ago and we will talk about taking it out in 2 years, but only if I am super healthy and back in shape. Hoping there is a chance that will keep me from getting pre-e again, but there are no guarantees.

  • ME ME ME ME ME!!!!

    I had an awful pregnancy! I love my LG but God help me if I'm gonna go through that again. I got a little scared though. I haven't had my AF show up yet and I EFF. I had a twinge feeling today of feeling like I was gonna throw up. Now it's the only thing on my mind. I really don't wanna POAS. But we'll see. Maybe I'll just wait till my next appointment in two weeks to check. =) If I can wait that long. UGH>  

  • this is me...I actually took a test a few weeks ago and was shaking...I want to enjoy my daughter for a while before we consider it again...plus I was on hospital BR and worry about it happening again

  • For the first 3 months, I was sure we were one and done. Now that DS is bigger, sleeping better, more fun in general I can definitely see a couple more. Being in that pp NB, no sleep, crazy hormones, crying baby phase definitely caused me to think we were done.

    DD #1 passed away in January 2011 at 14 days old due to congenital heart disease
    DD#2 lost in January 2012 at 23 weeks due to anhydramnios caused by a placental abruption
  • If I got pregnant right now I would cry. A lot.

    DH is on the same page, although he did say that "at least we'd be getting it over with", so I think he's a little less terrified than I am. 

    We are hoping for one more, but we won't be TTC for at least a year. Hopefully the combo of the pill, condoms and BFing will do the trick....
