Hello. I am 38 years old and I was diagnosed with PCOS many years ago. My husband and I tried to have a baby for 6 years but without success. Then I decided to live my life without children. I found my peace. However, things were not meant to stay peaceful. Last year we found out we were pregnant. Imagine our surprise. Everything was perfect until my water broke at 23 weeks. Our little girl was too little and too fragile to survive. That pregnancy changed everything for us. This September we started our first medicated cycle using Clomid and Metformin. On CD 14 ultrasound showed three mature follicles, all over 20 mm. I ovulated a day after. Last Tuesday, 14 dpo, I found out I was pregnant. We are so happy and excited but also very scared. I don't want to be paralyzed by fear. I would love to have a stress-free pregnancy, to enjoy it as much as possible. But the loss of our baby girl is still fresh in my mind. Any advice, tips? God bless you all.

I'm so sorry for your loss 
I'm not sure how I can help you but wanted you to know i'm here to talk if you need too.
I too had a loss but much earlier then yours. I had a hard time dealing with another pregnancy terrified I would lose this one too, but the further along I got, the fear eased some. I think you may fear for this little one longer, until you pass the mark in which you lost your angel. I dont think we will ever stop worrying until baby is here but it will certainly ease some as due date approaches.
I'm sorry I was of no help. I wish you a happy and healthy nine months!!!

I am so sorry for your loss. I have only had a loss at 11 weeks, so by no means the same as at 23 weeks. I am 41 years old and 8 weeks pregnant now, so know all the risks. Did they find any cause for your late miscarriage? Are you been more closely monitored because of it?
As for dealing with pregnancy after a loss. I have good and bad days. On the bad days I am sure it will happen again, but I try hard to stop my thoughts going there. Positive thinking has to be your mantra. Remind yourself that this is a different pregnancy and every pregnancy is unique. If having extra scans late on will help, then get some extra scans. Buy a Doppler, so you can check your los HB when you need to. But positive thinking, meditation if you can, to help continue been positive, it's a hard ride, ups and downs all the wa but you have to believe that all will be ok and this is different and it is. Big hugs and congratulations on your pregnancy x
