I had a miscarriage last year at 11 weeks, but the baby was only measuring 6 weeks 1 day. Now I'm on my 2nd pregnancy, 6 weeks and 1 day along, and I'm so anxious about losing the baby again... Then I get anxious about being anxious because I don't want to cause anything bad to happen to the baby... anyone who has dealt with a loss then another pregnancy: how did you stay calm? how did you allow yourself to be excited again? that one seems impossible to me. my husband and I were making vacation plans with his family for the summer, and when we left I said "what will we do if I'm still pregnant?".... It breaks my heart that I'm assuming it will happen again. but then again, I feel like this time is different. ugh, so many hard, conflicting feelings :(
:-) talk to your doctor. See what they can offer. If not weekly appointments and ultrasounds then progesterone in one form or another. I sincerely hope everything works out. You can message me any time you need.
I lost my son, Bennett somewhere around 13-14 weeks. I am currently pregnant with my rainbow baby.. I didnt want to get too attached emotionally and I didnt keep up with how far along I was in the beginning.. I just didnt want to be happy about it until I was in a safe zone... I am so sorry for your loss. My son died from cystic hygroma. It truly is the hardest thing to ever go through. I have been having medical issues on my end and this baby may not make it... the scare never goes away, but you just more hopeful as each day, week, month passes.... Prayers for you❤
@bengsmom10, 6 times? oh, bless your heart, I couldn't imagine... I do wish I had weekly appt though... it would definitely help me rest a little better. and I love what you said, plan your life around the possibility. thank you♡
thank you ladies @angelkisses @mrscruz0530 @thesandersfamily - I'm trying to stay distracted and busy, is so hard with all this snow we got - I'm home on a snow day! so a ton of time to think, which is never good... I'm trying to pray more and stress less, it's just hard. I think I'll be able to breathe better if I make it to 13 weeks
Having been through this...6 times...to stay calm I allowed myself to cry, have fits of anger and be crazy when I needed. I also have doctors this time that did whatever they could medically to help me get past the first trimester weekly ultrasounds and visits, medication. A lot of hospitals won't take you up to labor and delivery that early if you go to the ER but mine demanded any time I went to the ER I was sent up there. The "what ifs" never go away you just learn to not say them and plan your life around the possibility. Good luck.
I agree with the above comment. It will still be on your mind, but try your hardest not to stress about it.
I miscarried in December of 2012 at 8W6D pregnant. I was SO depressed afterward.
My Husband and I conceived our Son Brantley our first month trying to conceive after the miscarriage (March of 2013), I was terrified of miscarrying again; but tried my hardest not to stress about it.
Brantley was born November 25th of 2013!
I am currently pregnant again, 28W2D pregnant, it's a healthy baby boy, estimated due date is April 3rd!
I know it's hard, but try not to stress out Mama! ❤
it's hard to not be scared I had two miscarriages when I was 18 & 19 and I was afraid of ever getting pregnant again for the same reasons I just couldn't go through it again ! but I did get pregnant im 22 now and I just stayed positive and honestly there's nothing you can do to prevent a miscarriage if it's going to happen it will so just try to go on about your day and put your trust and faith in your pregnancy it's tough but it's not anything we can control I freaked out when I had bleeding this time and just thought "oh no not again " but everything was fine and I freaked out for nothing , it's very tough to go through but just stay positive girl !
last year (2014) I got pregnant but I lost it at 11 weeks I started bleeding went to the hospital and they told me I had a blighted ovum which is just the sac and no baby I was crushed and hurting so much but couldn't show it bc I had a 1 year old at the time to take care of so when I got pregnant this time I had my midwife get an early ultrasound to make sure that there was a baby in my belly this time I was going crazy not knowing and crazy till my second trimester came along my husband kept me calm for the most part but I kept busy taking care of my daughter it's hard not to worrie but don't stress urself out to much
