1st time testing after miscarriage
posted 28th Apr '09
Okay, so I recently had a miscarriage and my DH and I just started TTC again. I took a POAS this morning and its a BFP. AF is not even due until Friday! I am going in for blood work this morning to confirm, but I think I'm PREGNANT!!!!
Now the worrying begins. I have already started to rack up a list of all the the things that I have done this last month that a pregnant person should not do. I don't even know for sure that I am pregnant, and I am already starting to freakout. As soon as I saw the BFP, I began to pray.
Other than prayer, does anyone have any good ideas of how to cope with the anxieties, emotions, and fears associated with pregnancy after miscarriage.
And for those of you still trying, I will continue to pray that your BFP is just around the corner.

Congrats!!!!!
That was quick!! I don't get to TTC until my next cycle.
I really, really wish I could tell you something to make you not worry. I don't it sounds stupid, but when you start to worry, just take a minute, breathe as deep as you can and just let it go. It does help. Also, check out yoga. It really is good for release, and relaxation. Look for a prenatal yoga video. There are tons out there! And of course pray, pray, pray! I hope you have plenty of support and DH is good to talk to.
I'll keep you in my prayers for a healthy pregnancy and for peace of mind!
Once again, Congrats!!!!!

Congrats on your pregnancy! And I hope you have a happy and heathy 9 months!! I really dont know any advice to tell you, b/c I actually just found out I am pregnant last week 6 weeks after my m/c! You just have to be calm and believe that everything is going to work out. This time I just feel more calmer and try and just relax in knowing that thing will work out the way they are suppose to.
Wish I could have helped more. What did the dr. say?

How did the first ultrasound go?

My insurance now requires that they send the blood work to an outside lab , so I won't get any results until tomorrow but I will keep you guys posted

I got the results back and I AM PREGNANT!!!!
My HCG is 129 and my progesterone is 20.1!!!! I still have to go back tomorrow (Thurs) for more blood work to make sure that my numbers are going up, but I am officially pregnant!!!
It does not seem real. Every time I feel myself starting to get excited, I pull back though. I feel safe being low key happy, but not too excited. I guess I am trying to keep from getting too attached. I don't know why I am doing this, because God forbid something happens I will still be devastated.
I am happy and terrified at the same time and prayer is my only comfort. Please keep me and my baby in your prayers and I will let you know Friday what I find out. Thanks
