Pregnant after a Loss

new

I just found out two weeks ago that I'm due in December! :)
Our baby boy died in the NICU last year. :(

I'm so excited to be expecting .. but so scared, too. When I found out, I cried because I couldn't help but think, "I can't handle another poor prenatal diagnosis. I can't lose another baby."
I tried to get in to see the perinatalogist asap, but they won't see me til next week (I should be 7wks by then).
So. Far. Away.

  • I am so sorry for the loss of your little boy. {{hugs}}

    Sending you lots of good thoughts for a happy and healthy pregnancy. Good luck at that first doctor's appointment.

    I am sorry for the loss of your son, I can't even imagine how horrible. This is a new pregnancy, and we all had the same fears... but remember I't doesn't have to nor it will be the same way. I am not going to lie, the first trimester after a loss is the worst, the wait... It gets better and the excitement comes back. I wish you the best. Hugs and welcome to the board.
