Hi, ladies. I am poking my head in here from September 2014. I am currently pregnant with SO and I's first baby, but this is my second pregnancy. My first pregnancy ended in a MMC at 12 weeks - this was with my XH. I figured there are some things that would be easier to talk about here, and it is comforting to have so many women who understand what I went through. So, here I am! I am thrilled to be pregnant, but I feel like a jackass because SO is so very excited, and I am excited as well, but I can tell he is kind of bummed out that he expresses it more outwardly than I do. I keep telling him how much I love how excited he is, and that I feel the same way, it is just hard for me to let myself get my hopes up again. Two US have shown nothing but great progress, so I am hoping to be able to relax a little more soon.
Congratulations to everyone here, by the way! I have lurked around a bit, and I am just so happy for all of you!

Congrats and welcome! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!
Have you been able to talk to your SO about your loss? I know he probably doesn't want all the details, given that it was with your XH, but I hope you can at least share your apprehension with him.
@2redtulips - he knows, and we have talked about it plenty. He and I were friends long before we ever thought about being together, and he was around when it happened. He is so sweet and tries so hard to be patient and reassuring. He has not - and likely would not - bring up me seeming less enthusiastic than he is, but I can tell it bums him out a little. Just something that will work itself out with time, I think. I just feel bad.
