Pregnant after a Loss

How to make it...

I just feel sick to my stomach with nerves right now... I don't know how I am going to make it through the day, let alone past today.  I have my second beta blood draw this afternoon, and I am just sick about it... I already feel like my first number was too low for how far I should be... my u/s didn't go well.... I feel like I could cry at any given moment.... waiting for the shoe to drop.

I don't know what I am looking for here, maybe just to vent.  I feel so lost.

    Waiting for my 2nd beta results was the most terrifying thing ever.

  • I'm so sorry, in the beginning it feels like days take weeks.  Did you say your next u/s is Friday?  Big hugs and feel free to vent here whenever, it's about one of the only things that helps!
  • Just breathe! And take it one minute at a time. I think I missed your beta post...what was the first beta?
  • First beta was 13864 I think I was 6w 3d, only measured 5w6d on u/s

     

  • I'm sorry you're having a tough day! I hope it goes quickly for you and you can get some good answers that everything is ok. (((Hugs))) We'll be thinking of you!
  • I'm so sorry {HUGE HUGS}. 
  • We're here for you!  {BIG HUGS}
  • You're in my thoughts and prayers! ((Big hugs))
  • No advice, just {[HUGS}}
    DD1 is 3, DD2 is 1.
  • I know how you feel.  I felt the same way.  Realistically, we know that there is a chance that news could be good or bad and the anxiety of the second possibility is dreadful.  But make a decision to think positive.  Subbornly refuse to give in to the fear.  It isn't easy, but it is worth turning your thoughts away from anything negative.  "Today I am pregnant and I love my baby" should be your mantra.  The bottom line is that there is time enough grieve/worry over bad news once it is here.  For now, you are pg and your baby deserves mommy's hope and positive thoughts.

    ((hugs)).  Good Luck!!
