Dealing with the loss of a child and now pregnancy

I recently lost my 1 1/2 year old beautiful baby boy to an accidental drowning and found out 7 months later I'm pregnant, has anyone had similar experiences? how have you felt with the pregnancy? Babies are miracles and what a blessing to be pregnant and nothing could ever replace my little angel, but how do you Handel the pregnancy while still griving the loss of a child?

Thank you all for your encouraging words, my emotions have been all over the place and I know nothing could ever replace my little boy I think of him everyday. I am very excited to be blessed with this baby and I'm hoping it brings joy not only to me but my whole family. I do worry about being judged by people I know, but this pregnancy happened and if it wasn't right it wouldn't have happened. I miss my boy soo much it breaks my heart, but I hope he watches over us and his new little brother or sister.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Mine may not be the same but I was 16 weeks pregnant and my water broke with my son I had to deliver him with him not being fully developed he couldn't survive. This all happened June 12 2014. I am now 7 weeks pregnant and found out in September with it being so close and me going through grief still from loosing my son I think God everyday he is giving me a second chance I know my son is in heaven looking over us and will be the best guardian angle my baby I will have in May could ask for. Its not easy but you have to keep your head up. Think of the positive not the negative. You have to stay strong for your child you are having now and just know your son will be the best guardian angle you could ask for for your unborn child. Again I am so sorry for your loss and no one can take the pain away or make you feel any better about your situation you my dear have to find out what it is that will help you grieve and be happy. Just know your son is in baby heaven being taken care of better than ever a and not feeling any pain waiting on you too come up there and be with him. My prayers go out to you and your family.
