pregnancy after loss

I lost my last pregnancy at 14weeks but had a sucessful pregnacy before that, my son is now 7. I got my bfp one year exactly since the dnc a year ago. Im due Jan. 16 and have great feelings about this baby. Were super excited. I look forward to growing friendships and bellies with all of the other Jan 2012 mommies to be!

I had a m/c last Aug. 2010 and now after months of trying I am 11weeks. When I saw our baby's heartbeat for the first time, I cryed and couldn't believe how amazing the techs were with the whole thing. I'm still nervous to tell people but, I doing that very slowly and I can't wait for Aug. 24 for my 20 weeks ultrasound.

I have had two M/C's and I'm now 7 weeks. Had a scan at 5 weeks and there was a sack and yolk. I have my second scan on Thursday which will make me 7+2 and I am petrified.. really hoping to hear the HB.

Update: We had an ultrasound on June 2, and we go back again June 9, then every 2weeks.....its twins! Natural twins, I am not on any fertility drugs, it just runs on my Moms side-never thought it would happen to me though-but so greatful for this opportunity to be a mommy to 2 babies at the same time. My son is gonna be so excited when we tell him-but were still safeguarding his heart until we see more u/s and know things are looking well. He is 7 and the m/c last year was devistating and hard to understand for him-so were trying to prevent him from anything sad- which, we are not thinking much about, were praying things go well this preg. and we'll be holding 2 babies by Jan! :)

Im still waiting to get into an obgyn for my initial visit, and anxious for an u/s to see a strong heartbeating. I asked for another blood test to see the numbers while nothing else has been done, higher numbers would be good enough til my u/s. They told me my number was 509.5 which im not even sure if thats great or not but im putting my faith in it and thinking yes its good. I was just about 5 weeks with that number so i think its good. Heres to more waiting.   How are you ladys doing? Im queasy but not throwing up, nipples are huge with bumps heavy and sore. Bloated and backed up. Tired and hungry all the time.

I had a mc at 13 weeks this February. We waited two months after my D and C like our doctor asked and we got pregnant on the first try.  We,too,are due on January 16th. :)  I am 6 weeks 3 days today.  We had an early scan to rule out an ectopic since I was having pain on my left side.  We found out that it was just probably a cyst that went away on its own that was causing a little bit of discomfort and not an ectopic.  Baby measured right on target and we got to hear a normal hb.  I was terrified that there was not going to even be a hb, but the little one proved us wrong.  I know this will be a rough time for both of us, but we just have to remember that every pregnancy is completely different and the last one was just not meant to be (like you said). I am not as nauseaus time around, but am dizzy headed and have very sore boobs.  My hcg level is not only doubling, but it is tripling. I will keep you in my thoughts.  I look forward to getting to know you and everyone else a little better.

I just had bloodwork and a urine test done yesterday. Now its a waiting game until I get into see the OBGYN, im a veteran, so i have to go through military VA doctors first, but plan on getting the benifits transfered to the doctor that delivered my son, and our m/c,as soon as they let me switch care.
Symptom ? : I know its early in the pregnancy still, but im not getting morning sickness persay. I wasnt sick with my son, but the baby i m/c at 14 wks was causing me to be sick everyday since the day i got the BFP. This time not so sick, dizzy, discharge, sore nipples, bathroom issues, and food aversion more than cravings at this point. What about everyone else?
Mantra "Healthy baby, healthy mom....." over and over to myself when feeling stressed or doubting things.....
the dr. also told us after our m/c to try again whenever we were ready- that this isnt the usual outcome, some babys have something line up wrong and just wasnt meant to be. SO im praying that DH and My DNA work well this go round. Looking forward to a baby and heartbeat on the first U/S whenever that is. :)

I have a 11 yr old and 4 yr old and 6 m/c after My Dr thinks it's bad luck as well. I have all the testing done and everything comes out great. So I am hoping this one is it! My EDD is 1-21-11 but that will probably change after my 1st sonogram.

Hi,

In the same boat here! Have had four miscarriages in a row now. I have an 8 yr old daughter as well. The Dr seems to think since I had one healthy pregnancy that the last 4 have just been bad luck. I'm not sure I'm buying that! We'll see. Trying to stay positive.

I lost my first pregnancy at about 6.5 weeks and got my BFP almost to the day that my first baby would have been due. We are super excited and nervous and can't wait to meet our little one!! Good luck and happy healthy pregnancies!!!!
