We're ttc now and I'm terrified!!

5littleladies wrote: Well I got AF about 2 weeks ago so we've been bd'ing and I'm really hoping I will get pregnant but I am so afraid of another m/c that I'm afraid to get my hopes up. I'm afraid that it will take me forever to get pregnant again and that when I do get pregnant that I will lose the baby again. I don't think I could handle another loss. It was just too hard. I know my chances of having a normal healthy pregnancy are just as good as a person who has never miscarried but I always feel like I will be the person who goes against the norm. I want more than anything to get pregnant again so I won't stop trying but I'm afraid of what will happen.

Kaitlin'smom replied: try and relax....I know its not easy but adding this type of stress is not good on you. I wish you the best and when you do concieve a very happy and healthy 9 months to you and the bean

MommyToAshley replied:
I understand how you feel. I was told that the chances of having another baby with the trisomy that Joshua had was 1,000,000:1... that may seem like good odds, but not so reassuring when you have been that 1.

I was both excited and scared to get PG again. It's a hard thing to go through. My advice is just to be sure to keep talking to your DH about how you feel. That always seems to make things a little easier. And, you have us to lean on.



Sending some ~~~~ BABY DUST~~~~ your way!

mummy2girls replied: I know what you are feeling dear! The odds of me having another baby with hirschsprungs disease was 1:5. it was ascrey odd but i felt of god wanted me to have a healthy baby he will give me one. I belivev he gives you what you can handle. And it happens for a reason. You rpobably heard that many times!

I hope you have fun TTC...

coasterqueen replied: Aww sweetie, I wish you a happy and healthy pg when you get pg again. And I'm confident you will get pg again.

I don't know what you are going thru with your loss, but I know this all must be scary. Just know we are here for you no matter what. It's great to have a support system here and IRL to know they will be here for you.

I know just with my "issues" I'm been a mess and you all have been so great to me and my husband has been my #1 fan. I tell him constantly of my fears and he's just my rock through this.

and good luck!

redchief replied: I don't know if this will help or not, but I've another life experience to share.

After our first child my wife had an ectopic pregnancy. It was one of the scariest days of our lives together as she went to the OB with a little pain and found herself rushed to the hosp. with internal bleeding. My dad came and got me from work and rushed me to the hosp also. I remember how scared we both were (and how young as we were 22 at the time).

The surgery was successful but the pregnancy had to be terminated in order to save her. Lisa also lost one of her fallopian tubes due to the trauma and her OB said she had a 50/50 chance of being able to conceive.

That was three wonderful kids ago. All of her subsequent pregnancies were normal and all of our babies were delivered normally. Good luck to both of you regardless of your choice.

kimberley replied: i do remember how you feel all too well. telling you not to worry is pointless because you will anyways. just try to relax and focus on that new little baby waiting to come into your life. remember this... being happy or excited about TTC and another baby in no way hurting the memory of your angel. it just means this baby will have someone watching over him/her all the time

have faith. ~~~baby dust~~~ coming your way!

jem0622 replied: HUGS. I was in your shoes also. I wanted desperately to try again but felt my body would betray me. I would really encourage you to have your progesterone tested as soon as you get a positive HPT or ask for a blood test. The earlier, the better.

I did have low progesterone and I really feel that is why I lost my angel in January. But here I am...30 wks with twins this Friday...and I've made it.

The gestational age when I lost my angel was a very stressful time but I just had to give it to God and hope that the progesterone, plus all my vitamins (I take 8-10 nightly) would get me through and it surely did.

Lots of P&PT and lots of sticky baby dust to you!

~Roo'sMama~ replied: I'm so sorry you have to go through this! I know it's almost impossible not to worry but try not to. I'm praying my 'lil heart out that you'll get pg again fast and everything will be OK.

Littlejojames replied: So Sorry that you have to go through that.

Please stay positive even if your finding it hard.

I'm sure that everything will be ok and you will have a H&H 9 months xxx

Tamatha replied: Wishing you all the best!! It is so hard not to worry about the things that are most important to us. My DH and I are also TTC, and I am getting quite impatient! It has only been a couple months! lol I thought for a few days it might have happened, but alas, AF visited a few weeks later. I know what a roller coaster I'm on, so I can only imagine the emotions you are feeling... Just know that, when everything is just right, God will give you another baby--a happy, healthy, perfect little baby! Believe that, hold on to that, let that be your victory chant! Keep your thoughts positive as much as you can--it will only help!!

Good luck to you! I'd send you baby dust, but I'm kinda hoarding what I've got here...
