Pregnant after a Loss

cautiously moving over....

Yesterday I got my BFP.  I am 4 weeks and 2 days.  I was super nervous at 1st, then after I told DH I found it funny, now I am just hoping and praying.

Although this is my 1st PG after the loss it feels bitter sweet, I feel like I can't get to excited for this just yet. 

And I have a  question.  I had only been TTCAL for 1 cycle (lucky I know, and didn't this was going to happen so soon)  Should I say something on the TTCAL board? I have posted some things, but since I haven't been on there long (been on the board since my loss in Aug) I don't want to be mean and post when I am still relatively new. 

 Thanks!

    congrats and welcome!...I would say since you were only on TTCAL one cycle I would opt to not announce there but that is my personal opinion..I would not want you to get snark on such a happy day for you..if anyone knows you they will probably lurk here too ..good luck:)!

  • Yay! Congratulations! I know it's difficult to be excited right now as the nerves have a way of overpowering, but I'll be hoping you get to stay for a nice, boring 9 months!

    As far as a ttcal announcement, I recognize your siggy pic, but I think if you feel at all hesitant, perhaps you should just let them find you here to congratulate you.

    Congratulations - that's great news. Welcome to PgAL. I agree with Jen. I was on TTCAL for 6 months and didn't announce there. They'll find you over here.

    All the best for a healthy pregnancy!

    Congratulations and welcome. Here's to a happy and healthy 9 months.

    I wouldn't post anything on the TTCAL board. I lost my first LO and conceived directly afterwards, and although I had been lurking, and I think posted a few times, I didn't post anything over there. It can be very upsetting to people who have been trying for a while, and I wanted to be sensitive to that.

    Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place.
    Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace.
    Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste,
    It all revolves around you.
  • Welcome and congrats !! The nerves and the bittersweet feelings are totally normal. Hang in there---pgal is tough !

    I didn't post on ttcal and was there for 5 months--they can find you here if they want, in my opinion.

  • Thanks ladies!  I am going to take a test again in a few days, to just make sure.  I had my loss at 10 weeks- so its going to be a long few months to make it past that big milestone.  Though I am hoping it will go by fast with xmas coming up!
