Yeah everyone here probably experienced something like this. Myself included. You just have to take one day at a time. The mantra's on the board has helped a lot of us! Congrats and welcome!
((hugs)) What you've described was definitely how I felt when I was in the first tri with DS; it was after a blighted ovum, and knowing that I'd gone around for an extra month thinking I was pregnant when I wasn't was awful. But... you do get through it. Remember the mantras -- today you are pregnant and you love your baby. Congratulations on your pregnancy and welcome aboard! Sending T&P for a great ultrasound!
I'm so sorry for your losses. Congratulations on your current pregnancy and welcome! I know how scary it can be - just remember that today you are pregnant and you love your child.
I'm very sorry for your losses. Congrats on this pregnancy.
What you are feeling is so normal. I am pretty sure each lady in this board could have written the same post, at least I know I could've. There are many mantras repeated over and over in this board (I believe there is a sucky post on the top of the board) that can help. All that said, the waiting is the hardest part. I hate the helpless feeling if not knowing what is going on. I wish you a H&H 9 months.

Welcome and congratulations on your BFP. I think probably all of us here have felt or do feel the way you do. I just had my first ultrasound last Thursday at ~8 weeks and was expecting to see an empty sac like last time (I had a prior blighted ovum). PgAL brain sucks, but hang in there. The mantras are really helpful. We have a check-in on Tuesdays for those in the first trimester. You are welcome to join in!
BFP #1 on 3/26/14. M/C on 4/29/14 (Blighted ovum).
I'm sorry for you losses. We have all been there. Scared, cautious, not wanting to get attached for fear of losing another. It's very normal to feel this way. You just have to take it one day at a time. No matter what happens tomorrow, or next week, or next month, today you are pregnant. Hold on to that.
Welcome and congrats on your new pregnancy!

It's so hard. I recognize those feelings of reliving and dreading reliving the trauma from before. It's absolutely normal to be scared and to have so many difficult feelings because of your past losses. Just take it one breath, one hour, or one day at a time - whatever you're up for. I hope you get reassuring news at your appointment. Keep is posted.

I'm feeling quite similar and am cautious about this one and scared to get excited until it has been here past 12 weeks. I think a lot of ladies on this board understand how you feel. ::hugs::
Congratulations on this pregnancy and I hope you get the stay for a happy healthy 9 months! ::hugs::
