Pregnant after a Loss

I hate when dates coincide..

The dates for my pregnancies/losses seem to like to coincide and it makes me anxious when I sit and think about it. I'm not sure there's really a "point" to this post.. but it's late and I just want to get the anxiety out - I know I'll feel better after.

BFP #1 and #3 were in the month of November, #2 and #4 were month of May.

I found out about dropped betas on the exact same day a year apart for #1 and #3 - Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. I also had a beta draw the day before Thanksgiving, so I spent the past 2 Thanksgivings wondering what my next beta would be.

BFP #2 I miscarried at 5w3d, BFP #3 my spotting started and we discovered my beta doubling slowed tremendously at 5w3d..

My first ultrasound for this pregnancy (BFP #4) is 5w3d (Friday). I have never made it past that gestational day without m/c, spotting, or beta drama.  

I really hope this is the 5w3d I actually get to enjoy and have good news.

  • ((hugs)) I know how it feels. My EDD for this pregnancy is one day off from my second loss last year. My first u/s this time was at 5w4d, the same as what I was when I lost my first pregnancy. My second u/s was the Monday after Thanksgiving, the same day as when my second loss was confirmed a year before. It's scary and hard when things fall on the same day. I know it's easy to assume the worst will happen since that's all we've known. Try to remember, though, that good things do happen, even to us PgALers. I really hope you have some wonderful news to share after your u/s.

  • Praying that you get an awesome ultrasound on Friday!
  • I think its natural to figure out how all those dates conicide, I would have done the same thing! I hope this one turns out different!

  • I definitely understand your anxieties about it.  Any milestone that has any significance is bound to cause nerves.  Keeping you in my thoughts and hoping for nothing but good things at 5w3d for you, and for the next 8 months..
