6 weeks Pregnant after Loss

[Mom2bangel]

Hi moms or soon to be's,

I just found out last week that I'm pregnant, and I'm very scared that this pregnancy will end in another missed miscarriage. I was 8 eight weeks when I lost my first child, and that was 6 months ago. I get scared over every cramp, my breast are not sore anymore, and I've only thrown up once. I need some reassurance to ease my mind, please moms can you give me some positive feedback. I want to be a mother so bad, I don't want to go through the pain of losing a child again. Thanks in advance.

Hang in there. I know being pregnant after a loss is very hard (and believe me, I do know. I'm currently expecting after 2 back to back losses last year.) but try not to compare this pregnancy with your loss. No two pregnancies are the same and symptoms can come or go SO easily when you are under stress. I have minor pg symptoms to begin with and barely had anything other than a missed period with this pg because my stress and anxiety were so bad. Try to relax as much as you can and, if you find you are getting overwhelmed, talk to your doctor. They can recommend relaxation techniques and possibly even order up a reassurance ultrasound. And know that the odds are in your favor-one miscarriage does not necessarily mean you will have more. Yes, there are those of us who have fertility issues BUT the majority of women who have a miscarriage go on to have successful, complication-free pregnancies after. Good luck and just take a breath. For now you are pregnant. Congrats!
