Snuggly its so good to see you in here, i had bad morning sickness this time around too whereas i didnt with the last one and they say ms is a good sign so bring it on i say. How many weeks would you say you are??
Sorry for no other persies just been so busy with work and then housework and walking the dog on top of that so havent had much time to post.
I hope everyone is doing really well.
Take care, talk soon
elise - yeah, feels awesome to be here! I was really sick last time too, and unfortunately having had a molar preg, being sick is not necessarily a good sign for me. But I think it feels different to last time, so we'll see.
dory - awesome choice on the cerclage. Whichever way you went, I'm really glad you have made and owned that decision. Good luck with it chicky.
I'm slowly coming back down to earth now, especially after being back at work today! Need to sit down and nut out whether or not I am going to continue working, and for how long. One the one hand, we can survive without the money if I give up now, and then I can rest up and give this pregnancy the very best shot. On the other hand - what if it's disaster again? I don't want to give up a job that I love and end up with all that heartbreak. At the moment we're thinking I'll stick it out til Easter and check out what my betas are up til then, and maybe make a decision later.
finally feeling ready to post on this thread after a few weeks of lurking... Congratulations to all of you brave ladies in here on your pregnancies.
Currently cautiously pregnant!! 9+2!!
Lost my little boy in October 2009 and was really struggling at the beginning of the year...I was so unsure about trying again but my DH wanted it so desperately. In the end I'm so glad we did as we were lucky enough to fall pg in the first cycle of trying.
Got our on february 13th and after one day of freaking out I decided that no amount of worrying was ever going to change the outcome of this pg. It has been my first real positive move forward. No longer circling round in my own grief, I have been focused on trying to stay happy and positive for this new little life. I have made the positive decision not to read a single page of a pregnancy book but to react with my gut instincts this time (which I really wish I had gone with last time but it was my first pg then and what did I know?)
I have booked a private scan for next week (I'm in the UK and there are serious issues with early pregnancy care on the NHS here in my opinion.) Swinging from excitement to sheer terror about the prospect of the scan but I know that it's another positive choice I have made for this little one.
Worrying a bit about the 13th of April, due date of my first wee man. I feel I bonded more with him after he died than during my pg with him... (if that makes sense) and not sure how to approach this day and honour his memory whilst this new life grows where he should have been. On the other hand, don't want to wish him back there as our current wee one would never have come to be without him leaving us. Feeling a bit conflicted ATM.
Anyway, thanks for listening so far, will try to keep it shorter in the furture!

Hi Kermit. Welcome aboard. I am even more tentative here than you at about 4 + 1 - but I figure this is the place to offload all that.
I have joined a Belly Buddies group, and someone has posted about high hcg levels and early bfps. My mind defaults to molar - everyone else thinks "twins!" It's strange. The mantra, given to me by a counsellor, forever ago, is "every pregnancy is different." I say it all day every day - it's only been three days since my bfp and I am already going batty with nerves. How am I going to get through this?
Hi Kermit - congratulations on your pregnancy! I hope you feel some more reassurance after your ultrasound!!
snugglybean - the first trimester can be so hard... i know it is awful for me, it can be really hard to think positive at times!
Dory - I think I would be completely on edge with any weird feeling, if I'd had pre-term labour before.... As it is I'm bad enough with any pain that isn't something I've experienced before, and automatically think bad thoughts.
I got an appt in the post y/day for a growth scan next monday - can't wait.. but I don't have anyone to go with me, so I'm not sure what the heck to do about my 3yo DD... I guess i have to hope she'll be a perfect princess & sit still the whole time, lol
Hi guys,
I am new to this thread, I tried to post yesterday but it didnt seem to work, so apologies if I am repeating myself.
Hubby and I lost our little angel at 7-8 weeks on 6th february. We were both so devastated.
We are TTC at the moment and I am currently reading into every twinge, bit of cm, and moment of possiblity...its insane!!
So So hoping to be pregnant again this month and waiting to find out, and have been reading on BB for a while, it all seems so supportive and a great place to express.
