in Pregnant after a Loss
Hello all, 

I am so happy to be posting on this board. I really, really hope to stay on it! I got my BFP at 8 or 9 DPO. Confirmed with blood test. I'm either 14 or 15 DPO today. I'm so nervous after my first loss back in August. I've been experiencing cramps since I got my BFP. It's got me worried, but I am just worried in general! I've been taking FertilityBlend from GNC. I have decided to continue taking it until end of first trimester. Any tips for how not to worry so much?! I've already been convinced twice that I had lost the pregnancy.

BFP: 8/10/14 -- CP 8/22/14
BFP: 12/10/15 -- Prayers requested

    Congrats and welcome!  The mantras are my daily reassurance.  It may not take the worry away, but it may lessen it a little.

    Welcome and congrats. I echo the PP...the mantras help! I wrote them on my own sticky note and put them on my dashboard. I have an hour commute to work and that's when when my PGaL brains activates most, so the mantras calm me down. Take it one day at a time, the next 9 moths will be full of surprises! :)

    Congratulations and welcome! I had period like cramping almost the entire first tri! It can be scary, esp being PGAL. Try to remember the mantras.
