Help, I feel like I am going crazy

Hi Smegs and congratulations on your pregnancy hun.

I also think your feelings are VERY normal for someone who has been ttc and suffered a loss. It does make it difficult to think positive but over time you will start to believe this is happening and you WILL become a mummy and you WILL hve a precious bub to take home and to hold on your arms.

It took me a while to accept these feelings too and I have to pinch myself everyday and make myself think positive thoughts and tell myself that I will take home a happy and healthy bub in the not too distant future.

I want to wish you all the very best for your pregnancy and know that we will be here for you when you need us to be.

Congratulations Smegs.
As you can see from my sig, we were 3 1/2 years TTC and exactly 2 years of seeing a FS. Although not nearly as long as you, there were plenty of disappointments along the way. I am very sorry you had a loss along the way. It must make the journey so much harder.
It's been just over a week since we found out, and things are very different to how i imagined. Although initially (for 48 hours) we were so excited, we don't talk about it at all now...there just seem to be too many things that can go wrong. I guess once the 6 week scan is over we will feel a little better. MIVF sent us a booklet about all the things that might be going on and it was very educational, but a bit saddening. We are so accustomed to TTC, that it seems weird not to be anymore. All that stress and heartache should be gone, but the joy and elation that i thought we'd be feeling isn't there yet. I know it will come, but after all our trials, we just keep expecting something else to go wrong.
I guess what i am trying to say is...whatever you are feeling, it's completely normal. I hope with time, and by sharing your journey with those that understand, you will sound as happy and joyful as Monnie and Mako do!
I hope you have a very happy and healthy pg.
Good Luck
Jo
