Intro (repeat)

in Pregnant after a Loss
Hi all. I intro'd here back in June, and then I took a bit of a bump break with the exception of staying on the loss board. If its okay, I'd like to re-post my intro and be active on TB again!  I figured I would repost this since it has been so long since it has been up and I didn't want to seem like I was crashing a board. 

Hi all.  I wanted to quickly introduce myself (my story is lengthy but I'll try to get to the important things).  I have PCOS and went through two years of infertility to have one very successful IVF cycle in August of 2013.  We got pregnant with our twin boys, Conner and Benjamin.  On January 10th, 2014, we lost them due to possible IC and Chorioamnionitis.  They lived for a little over two hours and were both baptized in my arms as soon as they were born by the same pastor who married my husband and I. We miss them terribly and the grief still remains, but my boys have left us a legacy of love and strength.  

We had 8 frozen embryos left from our fresh IVF cycle and we transferred one very strong baby on June 18th.  **edit** - we are now 5 months into our pregnancy.

I am already freaking out over this pregnancy thinking that I am going to lose another baby. I don't think I can survive losing another.  

I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and offering support.
