Just wanted to see, how are you all feeling??? I am just coming out of my miscarriage from the end of January but I am findings myself feeling so very much different about this pregnancy.

I am not sure if it was about the holidays and the rush of telling everyone and the rush of wanting ultrasounds to show people in time... but I started to feel some doubts once I found out I was pregnant, or even just a bit after... Ultrasound after ultrasound, bad news then more bad news, waiting and waiting.

This time, even though it started off as a shock (on the verge of a much needed weekend off) and it ruined my weekend plans - I could not be more thrilled and finding the news sinking in more everyday. Not only that but I feel such positivity about this pregnancy. No doubt that this one, is the one! It's gonna be our son or daughter by year's end!

How are you all feeling with this pregnancy since your miscarriage(s)? I hope well, but thought it might be nice to share our feelings with this thread.

Much love!

I feel so much more confident about this pregnancy, and I have since before I even got my BFP! I don't know what it is, but I just feel like everything is going to be okay this time.

Glad you feel good about things this time around as well!

I'll be scared the whole pregnancy, but I made it to 27 weeks before my daughter passed, so I wasn't even safe in the 3rd tri.

Oh my, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I can understand how you will be reserved throughout your pregnancy but I hope that as times goes on you find more and more peace with each ultrasound.

Amjon, i am so sorry about your loss

Jezzielin, i feel 100% the same as you

with my first pregnany, my head was telling my i would have a baby, i mean come on i was pregnant, so why wouldnt i!? but secretly heart was telling me that this wasnt my time

this time, i just feel at peace with it, and know i will have a baby to hold at the end. im even excited about going for ultrasounds, because i know everything will be fine. first pregnancy i was crying before my 12 week scan i just did not want to go. i wanted to stay at home where it was safe and where i could keep pretending everything was okay, because i knew the ultrasound would show otherwise.

im glad you feel the same way, its the best feeling to actually be truly happy and at peace with being pregnant

I am feeling so much better about this pregnancy then my last. I had two previous healthy normal pregnancies(although I had brown spotting with the first I still didn't feel like it was anything too sinister) but with my miscarriage I just had a bad feeling that I couldn't shake and when I started bleeding I was praying everything would be ok, but just got a feeling off"I can't stop what has already happened" and felt calm, but knew it was not going to be the outcome I wanted. With this pregnancy I have had two dreams before my bfp that I had a baby at Christmas. It feels different, more like my first two. Hope we all have a h&h 9 months!

For me its hard to differentiate whether its a bad gut feeling or me being silly and doubtful....i think if alot of certain stuff hadnt happened id be more relaxed but im not....8 days til my 3rd scan, it might be my final....im trying not to think that way but its difficult..

xCookieDoughx · Apr 18th, 2012, 02:55 AM

I am feeling so much better about this pregnancy than the other 2 this year. I feel like my body is protecting it this time

I can smile and say I'm pregnant instead of hide away because I know in my heart something isn't right

Deethehippy · Apr 18th, 2012, 03:14 AM

I was feeling pretty confident in the beginning but last night i had slight cramps and i went into meltdown panicking

I would say in general i feel better about this one but i am not 100% sure it's going to be ok, i just keep hoping so badly

I know how you feel, I feel like my body is protecting it too and responding well to the pregnancy as well. So far, so good!
