Pregnant after a Loss

A (very) nervous introduction...

Hi everyone! I'm Sara, and I've called TTCAL my home since my MMC this past November. I got a BFP this morning, and I am so excited (and absolutely terrified!) DH is out of town on business until Friday evening and does not yet know, (!!) so here I am! 

A little about me: after my BFP this past October, I broke my leg badly. After my m/c in November, I lost my dad exactly 2 months later. The dual losses were devastating for me. This little bean is due on the day I buried my dad in January. I am a first grade teacher, and I love my job. DH and I are furbaby parents - we have a French Bulldog named Lola and two Maine Coon kitties named Harvey and Vinny. I am hoping for an uneventful 9 months here! 

To TTCAL - words can not express how thankful I am for all of your love and support over the past 6 months. You helped me through some of my absolute darkest days, and I am so incredibly grateful. I am rooting for all of you! :)
