Pregnant after a Loss
new to this group
Well after moving around each group I'm finally here at this one. A little quick history. I have a 3 year old little girl and my husband and i started trying again in Aug. 08, got pregnant in Nov. 08, miscarried Dec. 08. a few weeks later i found out i was pregnant again and miscarried again around 6 weeks in Feb. 09. Then over a year later i was pregnant again in April 2010 and miscarried at 7 weeks. I just found out im pregnant again and should be about 5 weeks. With this pregnancy i'm having a hard time becoming excited. I mean im very happy but cant seem to stop thinking about the awful things that can happen. i think when i make it to 12 weeks i will be alot stronger then what i am right now.

Congratulations and welcome!
My story is similar. We have a 3 year old son and since then I have had three losses. I am 16 weeks along at this point and things are looking good. I'm even starting to feel excited. It does take a while, though. The first weeks are very hard.
Good luck and H & H 9 months!
I have no living children, but have had two losses, May 2009, and an ectopic in Feb/March of this year. I understand your fear and anxiety. You want to be positive and excited but at the same time, subconsciously, you're trying not to get attached for the fear of the pain again. I'm just praying for a heartbeat on the ultrasound, my other two pregnancies never made it that far. But, I'm thankful for every day I'm pregnant. Best of luck to you and you're among great company.
Stick baby stick!

Congratulations!!
I think all of us here understand where you are coming from and how scary it can be!! Especially after multiple losses, it can be so difficult to let yourself get excited. I am not even 5 weeks yet, so I am still pretty scared, but I've slowly let myself get a little excited!! And I feel the same way about making it to 12 weeks, I think we all make those little milestones for ourselves!! As hard as it is, just try to stay positive and use the board as a place to vent and get support! And remember today you are pregnant!!
