Waiting for the bad news...

[dueinMay]

I just recently found out that I am pregnant again after MMC in November. I can't help but feel like I am just waiting to hear the bad news. I don't know why but I have an overwhelming feeling that I will never have another healthy baby. I want so badly to be excited and happy but I just keep thinking about last time. I'm sorry to be such a downer, I just had to get it out.

What you are feeling is absolutely normal while pal.
I was constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop
this whole pregnancy due to my previous loss.
Wishing you a H&H 9 months!

I can totally relate to what your feeling and going through. This is my 6th pregnancy and I only have carried 1 to full term and I'm ever so thankful for her. The others were miscarriages and one ectopic. With this pregnancy I'm having a hard time. Thinking something bad will happen again. Just try your best to stay positive. I wish you the best!!!

Thanks ladies. It's nice to be able to talk with people who understand. My husband doesn't even get it. He just thinks I am being negative.

I feel exactly the same way as you do. I mc'd in November and am so anxious about this pregnancy. I'm hoping that I'll start to feel more positive after I pass the first trimester.

Looks like we are in the exact same boat. I had a MMC in November, I was 12 weeks but the baby stopped growing at 9 weeks. Today I am 5 weeks 2 days. My first doctors appointment is on February 14. How about you?

I felt the exact same. I lost 2 babies last year But got pregnant again in October and I am now 17 weeks. More ofter than not, you won't lose this baby. My husband didn't really get it either, I struggled with feeling really alone. But when the 12 week mark hit, I felt quite a bit better. I have also rented a doppler, so anytime I am worried I double check. My first loss was a mmc. I jsut read a quote yesterday that reminded me of this "Worrying is like praying for what you don't want to happen". Try and think positive thoughts. Or be like me and try not to think about it at all, If i didn't think about it, it couldn't be negative, lol.

My first doctor's appt is on Feb 26th. I'll be getting the first ultrasound that day, so I'm really nervous. The last time, they did an ultrasound at 8 wks and there was no heartbeat, so I'm really hoping that this time will be different!

Please keep us informed about how your appt on Feb 14th goes! I think it's good luck to have it on Valentine's day.

I know how you feel
Everyone keeps telling me I am being negative and I should stop it....well maybe they should go through something that traumatic it took me 2 years to get over it "fully"

But as others said hun we have to try and stay positive as hard as it is, take one day at a time.
