Ive been lurking between here and the TTC forum since I got my BFP. I'm 4w5d today, and I've been terrified of the worst. I had a mc at 10 wks in September immediately followed by a chemical. My OB said she wanted to see me at 6 wks on the dot this time around and I'm finally letting myself accept this and feel excited. Guards are going down.. Although I admit I do check my mc percentage chance by the day everyday. I never got a sonogram before the mc, and I can't wait to see my little bean on the screen, just a little over a week away!! Anyways, just wanted to say hi and say I'm THRILLED to be here.

    woo hoo! I'm 35 weeks now after having a loss just over a year ago. I also remember checking the MC stats daily in the early part of this preg. Good luck and welcome to this side :)

    Thanks y'all! 35 weeks- you're almost there!!
    Checking the odds everyday sounds so morbid, but it's comforting to check another day off.
    I got a pregnancy journal as a Christmas gift (odd gift since I practically just miscarried and didn't know I was preggo yet, yes haha) .. I haven't been able to write in it yet.. I've considered pencil but decided I will backfill two weeks after the 6 week sonogram - with PEN ;)

    Thank you everyone :) I just keep repeating to my self- today I am pregnant, and my baby is fine! I read someone else doing that to stop negative thoughts..
    When did everyone start to relax with their next pregnancy after mc? I'm a wreck with worry some days! I feel like it HAS to be harder on us, then those conceiving the old fashion way, right? Pray for my sanity!!

    I had a big reduction in fears at the end of the 1st trimester. As well as that milestone, my hyperemesis stopped, plus I had the genetic testing for downs around that time, which showed no problems. Those 3 things occurring around the same time really helped. I remember feeling pretty nervous the day of the anatomy scan, but since then I feel like I've only had a normal amount of anxiety rather than any increased anxiety due to the MC.

    This is so exciting! I remember first worrying about your delayed ups package, then the next package you got was perfectly decorated. I'm so happy you got your bfp that round and almost at 7 weeks. Hope I can join you on this side soon. I am 6dpi just waiting.
    Celebrating 10 years together with 2 precious babies.
