Anyone with previous loss?

chigirl0330 · February 2013

I don't want to bring up any sad thoughts but I had an early m/c at 6 weeks on 12/12. I am so thankful to be pregnant again but I am filled with so much anxiety not knowing if this is going to turn into a healthy pregnancy. Is anyone else in the same boat? I honestly feel like I can't be excited yet until I see a heartbeat.

I have my first beta tomorrow so I am hoping that will ease my mind a little but I cannot wait until my 7 week u/s.

I haven't had a previous loss, but I know I have seem some intros on here mention them. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss and I sincerely hope that this pregnancy goes smoother for you. Keep us updated with how your beta testing goes!

I had a chemical pregnancy. I know it was really early but I keep hearing my doctor say "no, you're not pregnant" while I was holding a positive pregnancy test. So it's really hard to to be excited this time. Fingers crossed for us both!

I have & totally understand this.

THere is a check-in for us girls name PGAL. I'm not sure what day it's on, I'm sure someone else will help you too!

Hug & hoping for sticky babies!

Thanks ladies! I am generally a high anxiety person as it is so you throw in an uncertain pregnancy and it can make someone like me crazy. I will definitely update on my betas when I get them. Sticky babies to you all as well. I will look for the PGAL post. Thanks lbeth

There are, unfortunately, a lot of October moms who have experienced a loss. I had a natural m/c at 5w5d in November. It has, without a doubt, robbed me of my carefree happiness but I have made sure to enjoy every minute I am granted with this baby.

I believe it's on Thursday.

I had a m/c at 5 weeks in Nov of last year. It has definetly robbed me of the carefree excitment I had with my first. Everyday I wonder and over analyze everything.

Good luck to you and here is hoping for a long healthy 9 months for all of us.

I did, I don't even know how far a long I was when the pregnancy became not viable. I went in to get ultrasound at 8 weeks and they didnt really see much a week later I started bleeding. This was about a month before yours.

There is also a Pregnant after a Loss board. When I was there last year, it saved my sanity. It's a great place to discuss the feelings you have being pregnant after enduring loss.

I had an early m/c in December as well and I'm on pins and needles. My first appointment is Thursday and I cannot wait to just know if this is going to be viable. It is hard to be excited for something that you know has a possibility of not happening. I'm hoping that as soon as I see the heartbeat, I'll be able to relax.

Loss here too and I'm definitely feeling the anxiety. I don't go to the dr until march but I need to chill

I did as well. It was in 2010, a few months later I got pregnant again with my little boy. This is now my third pregnancy and I also feel nervous. It helped me to talk about the loss with others in my real life. There are so many people out there that have suffered and it helps to see how they dealt with the loss.

I had 2 chemical pregnancies last fall, so I get the anxious feeling. I have seen the heartbeat and it did help me.

KLResq · February 2013

Hi. I had 3 losses in 2012. Two natural (May, Sept.) and one D&C (Dec.) I'm still SUPER early this time-- I'm guessing I'm only 8 or 9 DP)--but for the moment, here I am.

TommysMommy12 · February 2013

Yes - Mine was on 12/26 at 6 weeks so we are pretty much in the same boat! I had an ultrasound a week ago and they just saw a sac but nothing else... I am going back this Thursday to hopefully see/hear a heartbeat. I totally agree... I can't seem to get excited yet just because my anxiety is driving me crazy!

abuglione · February 2013

I had a loss due to triploidy at 14 weeks. I also am so excited to be pregnant, but beyond nervous. Waiting until after my nuchal translucency to begin to feel really excited.

loving929 · February 2013

I had a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks back in September so I totally understand the anxiety. Hopefully your betas will ease your mind!

lavashiner · February 2013

I also suffered a loss (in 2010--took us a while to get PG again!). I am anxious but trying to take it one day at a time. I have my first ultrasound on friday, and I am counting the minutes until that appointment!

I had really great betas, which did help to ease my mind, but there's a little nagging voice in the back of my head that worries--I just try to drown that voice out with positive vibes!

GL with your betas!
