Pregnant after a Loss

Is it bad to not beleive your actually pregnant?
tinymep

I am going through a period of denial right now. Last year I went through an abnormally long miscarriage and it took me about 6 months to get all the HCG levels out of my system. Me and my husband started trying again, and I just found out that I am pregnant! As exciting as that is I am going through this period where I don't believe it. I took 4 pregnancy tests and they all had faint positive, so that makes me think even more that its not real. I am so excited about being a mom, but I fear l will lose it again so I'm in denial. Any advice?

You're definitely not alone. It took me a while to believe it myself. And I still, like a couple of PP's said, catch myself thinking about fall activities and concerts and then I'm like oh wait, can't do it.
I hope that these feelings will subside for you and you can start to enjoy it.

I'm 23 weeks and I'm still in denial. It took me 10 months and several procedures and surgery to be able to get pregnant after my D&C so I'm paranoid and scared. Congratulations!
I'm the same way. I'm just shy of 6 weeks and I am still peeing on sticks! It's a sick obsession... I just refuse to beleave it is real.
Either way, eventually there will come a point where you can't deny it any longer. Hopefully it will be soon!

((BFP 7/29/13)) ((EDD 4/12/14)) It's BOY/GIRL twins!!!
I am the same way. On one hand I'm very excited, but I also feel detached. A friend (who is also a loss mom) suggested it's our hearts way of thinking it can protect itself. I felt really bad the other day when I realized I still have the u/s picture in my purse for over a week, and hadn't looked at it since the day we got it.
I am also waiting as long as humanly possible to tell people at work because I don't want to deal with the "squeee, you're pregnant! How are you feeling, do you hope it's a boy or girl, blah blah". I don't really want to talk about it, so the longer they are in the dark the better.
