Pregnant after a Loss

approaching loss milestone and I'm so scared! (previous m/cs mentioned)!

Just to be clear, I had a very bizarre m/c about a year ago. It was due to a partial molar pregnancy and was a missed m/c. I went to my first trimester screening at 12 w and was completely devastated to hear I had lost the baby at 10 1/2w (I really didn't see that coming). I had to wait a year to TTC because of these circumstances. Since then I also had a cp, which wasn't nearly as traumatic but still sucked. I really wanted a break after that, but nope I got pregnant again (we only had sex one time which I know was stupid if we wanted a break). Please don't mistake my stress for disappointment, though. I am thrilled to have a baby but just very unsure that it will work out full-term and probably could have used that break to recover mentally. Now that I am at 11w, we have gotten excited again and the happier we get, the more anxious I am that its just all going to end soon. DH himself mentioned (because I admit I bring up my doubts all the time) that he would lock himself in our room for a couple of days if I m/c. That made me feel kind of bad but, at the same time, I was happy that he opened up since he doesnt always do that. Anybody feeling scared?

    Thanks ladies! I know that we are all scared sometimes and I'm glad we have each other to get thru some of these tough times. I genuinely don't know what I would do without you all :-)

  • Hugs to you. Being PGAL is really hard. Others already gave you great advice. I always remind myself that this pregnancy is different and just because it ended sadly before doesn't mean it will be the same way again. PGAL really messes with your head and unfortunately that is normal. We are here for you and you aren't alone. I'm thinking positive thoughts for you.
  • ((((HUGS))))  Remember that your past does not dictate your future.  This is a new pregnancy!  I am sorry that you're feeling this way right now.  PgAL brain sucks!

  • It is so hard not to constantly worry. I have to consciously push those thoughts out of my head all day long. I hate that pgal brain robs us of all the excitement we should be feeling. It's not fair! I don't know much about molar pregnancies but it seems like the odds of that happening again are pretty slim. Try to stay busy until that time passes to keep your mind off of it. Baby will be just fine!
