Disclaimer: This is in no way me trying to be braggy, and I hope this doesn't come off offensive to anyone because by no means is that my intention.

I know this goes without saying but I am so grateful everything happened how it did with TTC my little miracle. My boyfriend at the time, now husband, and I weren't trying but we weren't preventing up until the month I conceived we were 100% trying and when we got our BFP in September we were over the moon, then come October we found out the baby didn't make it and the day I got married I started to miscarry. More than 2 weeks later I finally passed everything and without even trying/knowing I was pregnant again before I even got my MP. Now I will be 12 weeks on Saturday and I honestly couldn't be more grateful and happy. I think everyday how lucky my husband and I were, and are, to only try for a month for a baby even though we had a little hiccup. That miscarriage took a huge toll physically and emotionally on me, I can't even begin to imagine having multiple miscarriages before conceiving or having to go through fertility treatments and progesterone injections. I cannot applaud the women enough who go through all of that and more. You guys are honestly some of the strongest women and I hope each and every one of you know that!

This is my first thread on this board and I just wanted to share how I've been feeling lately which is nothing but love, happiness, and gratefulness

Hope everyone has a lovely day!

It is very hard to loss a child at any stage I feel. I have lost four and with every pregnancy for me it still doesn't get easier. I still have anxiety until I approach the week I had all my complications. I just got a cerclage yesterday and it is my fourth cerclage and I'm still nervous. I would love to just enjoy being pregnant like many others but I'm high risk and hopefully in the end we will all have full term healthy babies. Good luck with everything

Welcome, congratulations on your pregnancy, and I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Can I suggest that you add one more disclaimer to your post? Just to be sensitive to members that might have a hard time reading about pregnancy loss, it would be considerate of you to add a little warning before you mention your miscarriage. On The Bump we use the words "Trigger Warning" or the abbreviation "TW" either in the title of the post or include a little break in your post with that warning.

I went through something very similar to you. My fiance at the time (now husband) and I decided to start trying to conceive at the end of September, knowing we were getting married in November and really wanted more kids. We got pregnant immediately but lost the baby at 5 weeks, on Halloween.
We ended up conceiving again in November, just a few days after our wedding, and I'm now just over 12 weeks and feeling so grateful to be here. I'm with you - I can't imagine having issues with fertility and multiple losses. Congrats, mama!

We had the same thing happen as @1faceinacrowd. We lost a baby in October at 5 weeks and were so so lucky to get pregnant again in November.

Both DH and I are only children and not by choice. I couldn't imagine going through month after month of trying for a baby and not getting a positive like my parents or having multiple miscarriages like my MIL. My heart goes out to all of those that have had to go through so much. Knowing their stories we feel so lucky we have the chance to have #2 and complete our family in a way our parents never did.
