Pregnant after a Loss

BFP yesterday

Hello everyone, I'm Carrie, I'm 37 and this (hopefully) will be my first child. I got a BFP yesterday, which is crazy because this is the first month I didn't have phantom symptoms. I haven't missed AF yet, so it's super early and like everyone else on this board, I'm nervous about whether this will stick. I had a missed miscarriage in March. The baby stopped growing at 6 weeks, so that's the milestone I look forward to passing, although I'll be nervous until the second trimester. Just writing "second trimester" sounds like wishful thinking. I swore to myself that I would be happy if I got pregnant again and not miss out on the joy, so for now I will say, "Today I am pregnant." ...And that's pretty amazing. I saw some names I recognize on this board, so hello, and I'm glad to be joining you! I haven't joined the May '16 board yet or changed my Bump status. Maybe after I miss AF...
