Pregnant after a Loss
Options

Today was my EDD.. :(

I am extremely grateful and blessed to be pregnant again (6w3d) but I am having a hard day today... I had a mc in October at 5 weeks and it has been extremely traumatic as you know, I don't even know what to do with myself today, I feel sort of paralyzed, sad, then angry, don't feel like doing anything, I am trying to focus on my new pregnancy obviously but I feel like today it's ok to just feel sad about what could have been..

I know many people would think that I should just feel happy about getting pregnant again but of course it is more complicated than that, I will always feel sad about this angel and wonder why..

Has your EDD come around yet? How did you feel? What did you do that day?

    My EDD was on Friday and we let a balloon go with how we've felt since we loss her. We watched it float away until we couldn't see it anymore.
    We decided that every year that's what we're going to do.
    And pray she sees our words one day

    I'm still a long way from my day. I lost her at 12 weeks, although she stopped growing about 10. I'm 6 weeks now and hoping for my rainbow baby. I am extremely worried all the time, I'm sure I will be until a normal 12 week scan. All the best to all of us!! Xoxo

    I am so sorry :( It is so hard, I have been very nervous too, have had cramping & spotting so it is terrifying. I cannot wait to get to week 13 so I can start breathing a little easier, even though I think I will always be a bit nervous until I am blessed to have my baby in my arms.. I also hope we all make it through!! :):)

    I'm happy to be pregnant again, too, but it does make me think of my first pregnancy. I never got this far or got to do these things for him. We got a little memorial for him made and I plan to keep it in the nursery (when it's done). I like to think he'll get too enjoy it, too, but it's sad. Thinking of you!
