Got my surprise bfp and now I'm scared!

[Rae.Rae]

Hi ladies!

I'm so excited, yet so nervous to finally post here! I hope you all can give me some support and comfort.

DH and I have been trying for 3 years now. Two years ago, I became pregnant and found out around 5weeks. At my first apt, I was supposed to be 11 weeks, only to find out I had lost the baby at 9 weeks.

We did clomid September 2013-March 2014, with no success. I tried a holistic doctor, with no success. Finally, I had told my husband that if we didn't conceive by Christmas, I was booking an apt with a specialist. We didn't conceive by December 11th, when I got my last period, so I booked an apt for January 20th. The other da, the 9th, I hadn't felt good all day and randomly decided to test with a cheapie I still had. Faint positive! Not believing my eyes, I went out and got a FRER. Yup, pregnant!!

Now, naturally, I am so worried about losing this baby. Nothing was found out why I lost my baby before or why I have had such trouble conceiving. No tests have been done. I'm making an apt with my obgyn today. I m wondering if I am insulin resistant. This past month, I have been drinking 3-4 cups of red tea a day to help.

I entirely thank God for his baby, and am praying that this baby and I will have a H&H 9 months, but I was hoping ladies that have gone through similar emotions and possibly losing your first pregnancy and going on to have a healthy second one, could offer me some words of comfort to calm this mama down!

Congratulations

I too had a long and tiring road to where i am now. I lost my first miracle after finally conceiving after lap an dye surgery October 2013. I took 6 rounds of clomid and on my final round in May 2014 I found out i was expecting!! I was scared this one (turns out to be two!) wouldn't stick but i took each day as it came - each day you are pregnant, enjoy it, embrace it and before you know it you'll be holding your little one!

I will be delivering my miracle twin boys on Wednesday this week

Thank you! It's comforting to know that others have been where I am and had the same worries and fears and went on to be blessed with their little one. Congrats to you!!

Congratulations!! I also had a miscarriage with my first pregnancy at 9 weeks. I went on to have a little girl and am now expecting baby #2. From what I've read, your chances of having a second miscarriage are not much higher than a woman who has never had one. Try to relax and enjoy!

I accidentally stumbled into it not realizing it was a Pregnancy After Loss thread But perhaps you may want to introduce yourself? GL and praying for your sticky bean and a H&H nine months

I totally 1000% understand where you're coming from. I was (and still am, honestly) a nervous wreck through this pregnancy. Especially in the beginning, I feared everything. I've just stuck to constant prayer to ease my mind and friends also help me stay as anxiety free as possible. My advice is to stay away from Google! I would search anything and everything that worried me, and I never liked the results. It would turn out to be nothing, but I'd work myself into a frenzy because of things I read. Try not to do that Just enjoy this pregnancy every day. Try not to think about tomorrow or the next day (trust me, I know it's hard!) and focus on one day at a time. That's what one lovely user on this board told me.

I'll add you to my prayers! If you ever need someone to talk or vent or just chat with, feel free to message me. Best wishes!
