Intro (loss mentioned)

I already started posting, but I should probably introduce myself! I'm very excited to be here. I got a positive test on Tuesday at 9dpo. This was our first doctor-approved cycle after an 8-week mc in May, so I'm still a bit surprised it happened so soon. I never joined a due date board with my last pregnancy (although I lurked all over) because I didn't want to get all attached to a group and due date so early on. This time, I'm just going to get attached anyway and whatever happens will happen.

A little about me: My husband and I have been married for 7 years. He's in software, I'm in hardware engineering. We live in the SF bay area and work in the San Jose area. We have a golden retriever that is ridiculously spoiled by my husband. He's 31 and I'm 32. This will be our first kid. 

It's nice to meet everyone!

    Welcome. I definitely have the same thoughts after loss. I want this baby to have as much love and support for whatever time we have. So congrats and I hope this baby that gets to come with you.

  • Welcome and Congrats.  I am sorry for your loss, and I hope this is your take-home baby.  
  • Congrats and welcome!  I'm sorry for your loss and check out the PGAL check in :)

  • Welcome! I'm so sorry for your loss ): I am trying to do the same as you are. No amount of shielding myself from feeling has ever worked in the past so I'm trying my best to let myself be excited and believe I will be taking this baby home in March. Hope to see you on the pgal check in!
    Yup - I was very cautious about my excitement last time and I don't think it made the mc less sad, just made the time I was pregnant more nerve-wracking. This time I'm going to browse at baby stores and think of names and generally give no fucks about my excitement timeline.
