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!!!!!!!
Re: Pregnant right after miscarriage no period in between....
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.
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.

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!
