Moving on over (hopefully for 9 months)

in Pregnant after a Loss
hey everyone! I'm Lauren and I'm mostly on the ttcal boards. Well, I was pretty certain AF was coming because I was crabby and angry, but then it didn't happen, so I took a hpt last night and got a bfp (and by bfp I mean, there technically was a super light line, but a line is a line so I'll take it)! 

Ive had 2 previous losses both in the 6-7 wk range within the past 7 months. So needless to say, emotions are high. At first, I ran down stairs with the hpt to tell my husband and he confirmed that there was a super faint line as well. We were super excited. Then I had about 15 minutes of neutrality, then cried myself to sleep at the thought of another potential loss. On top of that, DH will be taking a business trip for 2 weeks to China in my 6-8 wk range and that scares the hell out of me to be alone during the time where I might mc. I'm trying to be an optimist, but I have no children so far (sans my fur baby), so my pregnancy experiences haven't been positive. 

Thanks for reading. I'm hoping I'll be on this board for a long long time.

    Welcome! I am also pregnant after 2 losses. It's so scary but I'm currently 26 weeks! My best advice is talk to your ob about your concerns and just try and enjoy today because today you are pregnant :).

    @RiverSong15 yes I did change my username! I was formally boots&co but the "&" threw off my profile. So I reverted back to my knot username. 

    Thanks everyone! I don't have tons on symptoms yet, which is scary (because I'm convinced it isn't going to work out), hoping for just a little bit of nausea or something to feel good about it today.

    I had two losses and now I'm 21 weeks. I felt the same way you do -- that when it comes to pregnancy, I always get the bad news. Hopefully the third time will be the charm for you as well. My fingers are crossed for you.
    TTC#1 since Jan 2015
    BFP 2/19/15  •  MMC found at 9 wks  •  D&E at 11 wks (age 36)
    BFP 8/29/15      •  CP (age 37)
    BFP 11/18/15  •  DD born at 41 weeks <3(age 37/38)

    TTC#2 since May 2017
    BFP 10/18/17  •  MMC found at 8 wks  •  Misoprostal at 10.5 wks (age 39)
    BFP 2/16/18      •  CP (age 39)
    BFP 4/13/18      •  CP (age 39)
    BFP 5/07/18  •  MMC found at 10.5 wks  •  D&E at 11.5 wks      •  Testing showed it was a girl with Trisomy 22. (age 39/40)
    9/5/18 Diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve (4-5 follicles, one ovary had none and was very atrophied)
    RE says the low egg count is likely causing my recurrent pregnancy loss. Less eggs results in more aneuploidy.

    Congrats! Getting a BFP after a loss is definitely an emotional roller coaster. Try to take it one day at a time. My OB let me get in a few extra ultrasounds in 1st trimester since I was really anxious. Maybe you can talk with your OB about having an extra visit or two.
