Pregnant after a Loss

Pregnant again...But Reluctant to say those words "I'm Pregnant"!

Hey Ladies, I found out I was pregnant 2 weeks ago @ 4 wks and have just had a hard time saying I'm Pregnant (Hint: Ive waited 2 weeks before actually posting over here instead of my normal place of lurking and occasional posts in TTTC and TTCAL) I feel like it hurts more to have a loss after you've accepted the fact your pregnant so I almost don't want to say it yet!  Everything is going WAY better this pregnancy so far my numbers are doubling, which they never did with my first two pregnancies, but they are not high numbers yet and I'm still so scared! I have looked at the Hcg charts on the american pregnancy website and i am in the ranges they give but still lower end! My RE says as long as they are doubling that is a good sign but its still so hard not to worry!   I have an ultrasound friday I think will ease my mind a bit if it is good! I feel like I'm ripping away the excitment that most people have in early pregnacies and replacing it with only worry and thoughts of when is this one going to end! I know this is terrible to say but I feel like I have no hope! I really need encouragement! So anyone with a good story please post! Thanks so much!

  • I lost 5 pregnancies prior to this one and I still get scared but this pregnancy felt so different and it has been beautiful. I am having some beasty heartburn but I'll take it happily. One thing I decided I was going to do is just enjoy the pregnancy every day that our baby was with us. It doesnt help being scared because still at 17wks I still find myself getting worked up prior to an appointment but it helps me find little things each day to enjoy and get excited about. I hope you have a healthy and happy 9 months

  • I know the feeling - it's completely normal.  When your PgAL, it's hard to jump for joy, since you know what "could" happen.  Stay optimistic and know that today you ARE pregnant.  These feelings are completely normal.  Just take it 1 day at a time.  We're here for all of your worries.  I guarantee we've been through the same exact thing/thoughts/feelings.

  • I'm right there with you. I had two early miscarriages and learned Monday that I am pregnant once again. I'll find out this afternoon if my numbers are doubling like they should. 

    Personally, I feel like I SHOULD be more cautious and hesitant, but I can't help it! I'm just so excited! If I keep it all bottled up I'll just burst! 

    Fingers, toes, EVERYTHING crossed for both of us!

  • Thanks guys! I appreciate the support! I am Elated to be preggers I just wish it wasn't so easy to worry! I have prayed a lot and have tried to give it to God! He knows my every need so why should I worry right! Just praying this is my take home baby!

  • First of all, congratulations!

    While I am new to PgAL, I will tell you that I am completely understand your hesitancy to use the words.....I feel almost like I am "jinxing" it by saying the word....and, when we got our BFP on the HPT, my response was to burst into sobs, worried.. I think it is just part of what we have to go through to hopefully get our take home babies.

    Welcome to the board and I wish you a very H&H 9 months!

  • The feeling is quite normal. Trust that you are currently doing all you can do & other than relaxing there is much else that will change what's already in motion.
