Hi ladies,
I posted on this board (with a "could I be pregnant" question) early in the month of June under the username ProudMommy010315. I have since changed my username because that was the due date of my last baby. I am going to give a little history (again) so that my story will make a little bit more sense.
In April, 2013, I found out I was pregnant. At 6 weeks 3 days, on the day before Mother's Day, I started bleeding. My doctor confirmed a miscarriage that following Monday, and on Tuesday I passed my little one. My numbers went back down to normal on the following Monday. My doctor only made me wait till I stopped bleeding to have sex again, and she never told me I needed to wait any length of time before getting pregnant again. We have never been actively trying, as in charting, and testing ovulation (etc), and it took me a year in between my first pregnancy and this pregnancy to conceive again. My doctor told me my uterus is unbelievably tilted and she was surprised I've gotten pregnant twice already with it like that. That being said, after this miscarriage, I really didn't think a new pregnancy would happen any time soon. After my miscarriage, I felt like on/around May 30th, I may have ovulated (simply judging by feeling a little crampy and cervical mucus). Which is why I posted to you guys wondering if I could be pregnant. I was feeling crampy and having the same lower back pain that I had with my pregnancies. On June 3rd, I started spotting. Just like maybe a quarter size of brownish pink blood. It tapered off and on June 7th I was completely done spotting and just having white discharge. On June 11th and 12th, my husband and I had sex before I went out of town for two weeks. I took multiple tests between June 16 and June 21st but they were all negative. I had since not been able to shake the feeling of being pregnant, so yesterday, June 29th, I took two tests and both were POSITIVE. So now I have no idea if I got pregnant around the end of May when I thought I was ovulating, and it just took a while to get a BFP. OR if that spotting was actually my first AF and I got pregnant on June 11th or 12th (those are the only two days we had sex because I was out of town). The latter kind of seems more reasonable, however I'm just questioning it because that would put me at not even 4 weeks when I got my clear BFP. That seems so early. With my last two pregnancies that I lost, it took me till 4 + days after having a late period to get a BFP. I'm curious about your opinions. For now, I guess until I have a doctor confirm otherwise, I will have my siggy dating that my period was the week I spotted.
My husband is ecstatic, but I feel guilty about being more afraid than anything. My first miscarriage was painful, but I didn't struggle to heal from it. The second one that just happened in May turned my world upside down. I am so scared of getting attached and losing this little one too.
