Pregnant after a Loss

Pregnant right after miscarriage no period in between....

So I figured I should introduce myself first. I am Nicolle and I have decided I really like getting everyone's opinions on these so I am going to start posting more regularly. I think it will be better then just Googling everything.

I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks on 11/11/12 and have found out I am pregnant again right away. The doctors office said my hcg levels put me at around 5 weeks but they are not positive until a ultrasound. I go in Monday to make sure my levels are still doubling the way they should be. Until they are high enough that they would see something on a ultrasound. 

I feel like I am freaking out more right now because this is right around the time I miscarried last month. I know I didn't cause it by anything I did but I still have this fear something is going to happen again.

What do you guys do not to freak out and stay positive?

I hope this is a sticky baby!!!!!!!

  • Hello Nicolle - congrats and welcome!

    Really the only piece of advice I can give, which you will hear a lot, is to take it one day at a time. Enjoy the milestones as they come. We are all scared and have ups and downs, but this is a wonderful community and I hope you find the friendship that I have here and that you have a nice long stay!

  • Thank you both. I am sure once I get further along and start feeling more pregnant it will be easier to think of milestones. It is just still early this time and it happened early last month I don't think I really have felt pregnant yet. (I don't know it that makes sense) It is still not yet real.

    But I hope I do find friends here. 

  • Congratulations!  I also had a BFP right after a m/c w/o a period in between.  It was unexpected and nerve wracking but I'm 16 weeks now and so far, so good.  This is my 3rd pregnancy this year and it is definitely tough but just as PP said, try and take it one day at a time and remember symptoms come and go.  Each day that goes by is another day you are pregnant and just try to be thankful for that :)  
  • I lost Pumpkin on August 4th, and got KU with Pina on Aug 22nd.  So far, so good.  I have no idea how we get through these days.  I spent time here, mostly lurking because my phone makes it hard to post, and try to focus on work.  I did feel much better after my loss milestone, hearing the HB, and starting to feel movement.  Now, I actually feel like this LO is coming home with us...which is a whole different freak out. 

    HUGS.  It gets better.

  • Thank you all so much it is good to here I am not crazy for being scared. I am also so very thankful to hear that you all are doing well in your pregnancy's after m/c.

    Watermelon- I am sure when LO does come come you well be great!!!!!!!! But I am sure when I get there I will understand exactly how you feel.  

  • I am in the same situation right now. I had a natural m/c on 11/12, and here I am with a BFP (well, mine is a Big Light Positive for now, but hoping that changes). The fear is intense, especially when you thought it would take a long time to get to the other side! Fx for great numbers and for a sense of peace as things progress. 

    Love is multiplied: DS #1: 1.5.99 ~ DS #2: 9.23.11 ~ DD 8.29.13

    Bitty Baby #4, please stick around - we already love you so very much!

  • I got pregnant right after my miscarriage with no period in between and have had a totally healthy pregnancy. Granted, I'm several days overdue and annoyed... But that's been my biggest issue. :)

    Everything will be fine!

  • Ac I am sure we will both have great outcomes. I go in wed. for a u/s so I should know more then. My last bata test came back 3759 so my numbers are going up. Thank you for your support!!! Fx that everything comes back well for you as well.
