    Hey girls I just thought I wld pop in here, I am feeling quite anxious but dont want to bring my bb group down with my worries!

    I dont have any real reason to be anxious this time... everything has been perfect from the start... I guess once uve had a few miscarriages the fear never leaves u though
    I am currently 15 weeks but have measured a week ahead from 9 weeks so bub is very healthy. Im not certain of my dates as I never got af after my d&c at 10.5 weeks (baby had died a couple days beforehand) im just going off early dating scan result.

    The last 6 months have been a big rollercoaster ride.. pretty much having to do the first trimester twice straight after each other was a killer! But im here now and survived it! I just wish I cld relax now and be positive!

    Im not seeing my ob. til the end of the month now and im dreading the big wait! I do have a doppler and can find babies heartbeat easily enough but the few seconds it takes to find it really stresses me out so I try and limit myself to one check a week... and during business hrs incase I need to go and see ob. for reassurance!

    My placenta is anterior (sadly!) so im guessing I wont feel baby move for another few weeks.. it hasnt stopped me from obsessing about it though and constantly laying there waiting to get a sign that bubs is doing well.. I cant wait to get those first kicks!

    I have a 2.5 year old DD so am already so blessed but am really looking forward to adding to our family... I just dont think ive let myself believe its going to happen yet.. its horrible to be feeling so negative!

    Thankyou for reading this big all about me post, looking forward to getting to know u all. xx

    welcome reet - it is nice to have others who understand the added stress that TTC after MC/loss brings with it. Even with all the poor results I had the first time I was pregnant - it was a really different level of stress than I feel this time.

    So nice to hear that things are looking good for you though xox

    welcome reet. it sucks to have anterior placenta when you have been through mc, I should know! I started getting vague movement which left me unsure but now I am getting a lot, it just takes longer to feel it with the placenta in the way. I am sure we all know what you are going through xx
