Pregnant after a Loss

Feeling nervous and not very positive! : /

Hi! I got my BFP on the 23rd and I'm 5W1D.  BUT I don't feel pregnant at all... my last pregnancy 8/2013 ended in a mc 10/2013 so this was our 5 cycle ttc.  I feel like this is going in the same direction.  I have a lower backache(ish) crampy feelings which is sort of what happened last time.  The wondfo tests also seem to be getting lighter positives.. is this because my HCG is going down? My apt isn't until the 9th.  I thought I would be feeling tired or something by now and I just don't see things going well. : /

  • Big HUGS! As many wise ladies have told me, you can not judge your pregnancy on symptoms alone. I know its hard but try to keep it together until you get in to see the doc. Hang in there!!
    Married my best friend 7/2/11 - Furbaby born 7/9/11 and brought into our home 9/1/11

    BFP#1:   2/2/13 ~ exact m/c date unknown but around 3/20 at 10 weeks ~ diagnosed with PMP ~ D&C on 4/5 ~ TTA for at least 1 year due to PMP ~ cleared to TTC 1/14

    BFP#2:   2/7/14 ~ m/c 2/20/14 ~ possibly due to chemical pregnancy ~ TG no D&C is needed 

    Surprise BFP#3:  4/4/14 ~ super duper extra happy (and nervous) about this one - EDD 12/9/14!!!

    This :)  And the BIG ((HUGS))!!  I'm 5 weeks 4 days and don't have many symptoms other than peeing more often than my 80 year old grandmother!  On top of that, I'm also having cramps in my abdomen area that is reminding me of previous pregnancies (that we lost).  HOWEVER, I keep telling myself "Today I am pregnant and I love my baby."  My first u/s isn't until next week as well... we're in the wait together :)

    Fwiw I haven't had many symptoms at all (some minor nausea and fatigue) and I'm at 9w3d and everything has been fine so far.

    I don't trust cheapie pregnancy tests in their line darkness. So I wouldn't read too much into that.

    BFP#4 3/17/14 - rainbow Baby BOY arrived 11/10/14 !!

  • Thank you everyone! You are all right... today I am pregnant and that is all I know.  I have GOT to stop driving myself crazy until the 9th.  What is going to be will be.  I will TRY really hard not to pee on any more of the Wondfo's.. I only have 5 left anyways! ; ) mrsjg2013... I will be thinking about you for sure and will be anxious to hear that everything is good.  I couldn't even have imagined how hard pregnancy after a miscarriage would be! Wow it takes courage, strength, hope, love and so much more!!

    Think happy thoughts:) I know it's easier said than done. I have had two m/c and 3 live births...every single pregnancy was different. Take excellent care of yourself. Hugs to you and baby to be.

    Thank you :)  
  • Congrats! Try to be optimistic! I went through the same thing. I didn't feel pregnant and was actually shocked when the dr told me there was a hb. As for the test.. Step away!!! Don't do that to yourself!! Request betas to put your mind at ease.
  • Thank you! I've stopped taking the tests! But I will probably take my last Clear Blue Easy weeks indicator one on Thur to see what the weeks read... IF they go down to 1-2 weeks (vs. where it was last time 2-3 weeks) I will know more of what to expect.  

    I'd feel 100 times more reassured if I didn't have this stupid light bachache (ish) light crampyness.  That is the scariest part.
