Pregnant after a Loss

past the point of misscarriage...

While it goes with out saying that you are never safe and the outcome that we all want is not 100 % guaranteed ever. I have to say that today is emotional,

I am 20 weeks and past the point of miscarriage. It's been a lot more emotional that I thought it was going to be, thinking about my son who died at 17 weeks and a part of me has been waiting for this pregnancy to end in a late miscarriage and with each week that part has gotten smaller and now knowing that if I something where to happen to this baby it would be labeled as a still birth not a miscarriage is oddly comforting, only in the fact that I cannot lose this baby the same way that I lost my son. I can't have both my pregnancy end in a late miscarriage.
