Late Term and Child Loss

Finally happy news! Warning rainbow baby mentioned

I am on cloud nine! I haven't felt this way in so long. I have been consumed only by grief. I am so scarred at the same time. I just took a pregnancy test and it is a bfp!
I will be pregnant the same time I was with Arianna and I don't know how I will feel about that.
How are you all expecting your rainbow babies doing? How do you go day by day not freaking out that something will go wrong?

Re: Finally happy news! Warning rainbow baby mentioned

  • Congrats!  I will say being pg was NOT easy.  I was anxious from my BFP to delivery.  My OB had me see a perinatologist around 20 weeks and we set up a plan that included NSTs and to be induced at 39 weeks.  It was still hard to not be nervous between appointments,  I held my breath at every OB appt when they pulled out the Doppler.  I hope you get extra TLC during your pregnancy.

  • Congrats! A great place to intro would be over at PGaL (pregnant after loss). A lot of us have moved over there for the pregnancy related stuff. There are a lot of great women over there too. 

    Everyday is different. For me personally, this pregnancy is very different already (8 weeks in.) Im dealing with more physically than I did with Elsie. Also, everyday you have doubts, even if early losses are not in your history. And everytime someone says "I cant wait to be out of 1st tri and be safe" you want to scream that it isnt safe. But you dont want to burst their bubble. 

    Feel free to PM me anytime.

  • I as you can see have already had my rainbow and I tell you it is very scary to go through a pregnancy after losing a baby. It was tough but I did have more u./s and more testing to keep my mind sane. I switched doctors so my new doctor was awesome. Good luck to all of the new expecting loss moms.

    I am here if you have any questions I am always happy to help.

    Exactly! I hate hearing people say "we aren't telling until after 12 weeks when it's safe"....I learned that things can go wrong well after the so called danger zone.

  • Congrats on your BFP! I am not super far along 5w6d, but my anxiety is through the roof. The women at PgAL have helped calm me back down. I recommend taking it one day at a time.
