How did you react??

[ladybirdflies]

I had a miscarriage early december last year. And I am postive I am pregnant now, my period is not due till Friday I have been having symptoms since Friday just gone and they are getting stronger everyday, I just don't know how to feel. I want to know, but I am not sure how it will be when I do know. Is it normal to feel not excited, but excited mixed together???


How did you react when you got pregnant after a miscarriage?

I was scared!!!! Petrified actually!!! Nervous.. excited, but scared!!!! Very scared!!!

I hope you have a BFP waiting for you on a stick and a happy healthy bubba in 8-9 months time!!!!! xxoxoxo

i was excited and not excited at the same time. Once you have lost one the naivety of pregnancy goes too. I waited until 23 weeks before I got my first scan after my first 2 losses I was that scared and in so much denial. I wish you all the best and hope you get yout BFP next week!

I was really excited to find out I was pregnant again but really scared throughout the pregnancy.

I was a little the opposite when I feel pregnant after my 2nd MC. With that MC, I think I knew from about 4.5wks that something was not right, at 5 wks I had some old blood and at 9 wks I MC. I got an early BFP and I just felt right and knew everything was going to be ok. I was more nervous when pregnant with DD2 because I kept waiting for the same feeling of everything been ok to come and it never did but it all turned out wonderfully.

Good luck and I hope you get a BFP. There is no rush to test. Then just take one day at a time.

^^^ Exactly what StarBright said.

When I got my BFP, I literally sat on the couch shaking... I was petrified. I got my BFP on the Tuesday, and booked in to see my Ob on the Friday... I started spotting on the Thursday and burst into tears at work.

To this day, I am thankful I didn't find out until I was nearly 10w because it took about 6 weeks worth of stress out of it for me.

I have everything crossed for you hun

THanks for all the replies, I really appreciate the sharing of experiences. Well, the wondering got the best of me last night when I started to feel nausea , and the familiar run to the bathroom, on top of the already unstoppable hunger, metalic taste, sore (.)(.). So, i POAS and it is + Yesterday i was only 10po, so I am just sitting with it quietly and wondering what will be. I guess all I can do is wait, and trust in how this all unfolds.

Thanks again for the replies!

Awesome news!!!

Best advice I was given was to take it one day at a time too...

I would wake up in the morning and say to myself 'I'll just get through today, and it's one day closer my next scan / 12 weeks / 13 weeks along'.

Congrats and I am sending you lots of calm and sticky vibes.

Congratulations hun! Yes, exactly what the other ladies have said, it's pretty scary and it's hard to be excited, but you just have to have faith and cross your fingers and toes that everything will turn out OK.

Very scared and anxious....i just had my second scan today and all is well so now i am very excited that the scary part is over for me

I remember feeling so anxious for weeks when I got pregnant after a M/C, especially around the 10/11 week mark as this is when I lost the baby. Once I had that 12 week scan and it was all good my anxiety eased - it was a shame the morning sickness didn't ease too!

Thankyou for the continued replies and support everyone, I really appreciate it.


Today I am having a struggle in myself, I feel so teary, like the wave of grief is back again... I can't say I feel scared, because I don't feel scared, but at the same time I don't know what is going to happen. So with that has come some tears, I probably just need a big cry and talk about it IRL, but that requires me telling someone and I am not sure that I am ready for that either! My DH is having is own stuff come up about it all, what we went through was a lot more painful for him then I had thought, I guess I was caught up in the process at the time that I really wasn't able to see his pain.

So today is a challenging day...coming here and reading the posts have helped, so thankyou again.....
