    Thank you hope postive love and murraycod.

    Murraycod. Yes everyday i wake up and i think this is a dream to good to be true. I get happy and think about the future then i say to myself don't get to excited which is sad i know. But after you have had one m/c or more it's hard to be happy. But i am trying to stay postive and i hope that you do. Thinking postive brings something postive that is the new way i am trying to think.

    Hi everyone,

    I am new to this site and am looking for some advice. In February this year i miscarried at 8weeks. Needless to say my husband and i were devastated. I didn't require a D&C so my dr said it was ok to start trying againg. On Friday i found out i was almost 5 weeks pregnant. I am so excited but really worried that i will miscarry again. I guess my main question is does anyone know of any precautions i should be taking being pregnant again after a miscarriage.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hoping.

    Kitfaerie: eeek! I agree! So excited to be sharing this cyberspace with you and everyone who has graduated from the TTC threads! I'm still feeling pregnant mainly at night only: queasy in the middle of the night and having bad dreams every night (which i had early in both my previous pregnancies). A bit of mild pg cramping on and off but not much else. Maybe my M/S will kick in later?

    Murray: It is sad that we become so cautious in feeling happy about our pregnancies...but totally understandable. I hope that soon you'll have a lovely u/s photo of your baby to go with the blastie photo and you'll feel confident enough to take them out of the drawer a little more often. I'm hanging out for my first u/s too.
    Sammy: I hope you get some good news with your scan. Is that coming up this week?
    Alice: Glad you are lurking. I'm looking out for your posts too.

    Angelfish: Welcome. HOpe your pregnancy is trouble free this time.
    Hoping: Congrats on your pregnancy. Unless your dr gave you any advice relating to the circumstances of your miscarriage, i don't think there is much you need to do differently with a pg following miscarriage than for any other pg. Just eating right, resting etc. All the best for smooth sailing ahead for you.
    Ric: glad you have joined too!
    Twin sister: hello good to meet you. You must be sooo excited getting so close to due date!

    Hope.Positive.Love: Sounds like a good plan to help you count down to September.
    Audax: How are you? Have the pukies stopped yet?
    EliseLouise: Yay for the count down to stopping work!

    AFM: just counting the days til another week ticks over. I hope to see my OB next week (when i'm 6 and a bit weeks) so i can get a scan done in his rooms and see if there is a HB. (The mildness of my pg symptoms worries me and i know it might mean nothing but i'd like some reassurance).

    Thanks girls,

    I am feeling a little more positive this time as i have started having some m/s which i didn't have when i miscarried. I'm going for an u/s in just over a week so i am hoping to see a little heart beat which will be very reassuring.

    Wishing everyone the best

    Hoping

    Murraycod - ugh it doesn't feel like last month to me LOL. This pregnancy has been so rough I feel like I've been PG for years. I am so ready to have the baby already. I am so thrilled you are finally PG. I haven't been posting much but I've been keeping my eye on you guys and it's so nice to see you finally in this thread!!! As for symptoms I didn't have many with DS either in the beginning. It took awhile for them to kick in.

    angelfish - congrats on your pregnancy, I know how hard it is in the early days to stay positive. I wasn't able to get excited and stop worrying until I passed the 24 week mark this time. It does get easier though, sending lots of sticky vibes your way.

    Hoping - welcome and congrats on your pregnancy too. Since you didn't do anything wrong last time, there isn't really much you can do different this time around. As possum said just make sure you eat well and and get lots of rest. Sending sticky vibes your way too!

    Possum - wow another congratulations! It's so exciting to see so many new BFP's in here! Don't worry too much about lack of symptoms, like I said to murray, it was quite awhile before I felt symptoms with my DS. Hope all goes well at your OB appt!

    Millyd - congratulations and best of luck on your U/S. I'm sure all will be well and you will get to see baby's heartbeat. I'll be sending you goo thoughts on Thursday (though it will only be Wednesday for me )

    Wish me luck girls, I have a scan at 9.30 tomorrow morning. Then maybe I can stop being so negative. I have kept myself busy this weekend, trying to keep my mind off things. We took DD to the snow for the first time. She loved it at first but didn't really understand the concept of snow. After an hour she started screaming "take it off, take it off" so we took her gloves off and she kept yelling the same thing. We said "what do you want us to take off?" and she said "take the cold off!"
