Pregnant after a Loss

3 losses, pregnant again. wish me luck!

edited August 2014 in Pregnant after a Loss
Hello,

Im looking to connect with other women who may be able to relate. My first son was born with a CHD called HLHS, we went the palliative surgery route, he ended up in cardiac failure so we went with an ABO incompatible heart tx at the time. He did well but still challenged many obstacles. .long story short passed away at 11 months and 1 week ( 11 years ago) from going septic. An infection they couldn't find. My second, I was forced into an abortion because it was an ectopic pregnancy. My third was a miscarriage this last may. We lost the baby at 10 weeks. Now we have tested twice this week, two days apart, both positive. Extremely nervous!

  • I have had four losses (three miscarriages and one stillborn).  It's hard and scary but stay optimisitic.  Lots of thoughts and prayers for you and your little one.
  • Thank you So much everyone! You are all So welcoming. I am very much an optimist, but I am unsure, yet something in my gut says this pregnancy will be okay. If that makes sense. I'm trying to be So careful the way I eat, how much water I drink...and even how I move. It's hard not to wonder if I am to blame for the last miscarriage. For example, the other day I jumped off the couch to go do something. And I consciously told myself, slow down...no jerking motions. I cant below but feel like a walking time bomb.
