Heartbeat!

We lost our first baby in June at 20 weeks and losing him was THE hardest thing. I am still in shock that I got pregnant our first time after delivering and I went in today for my 6 week check up and there’s a heartbeat! I have been so terrified it was a fluke. It’s such a weird place to be in because I should still be pregnant with our son. Mourning the death of one baby and trying to not let the fears and anxiety take away from celebrating this new life!

I lost one at 11 weeks in April and I am getting an 8 week scan tomorrow and im SO NERVOUS!!! I’ve been having to supplement progesterone and it’s just not going as high as I need it to and I’m totally freaked out. I also don’t have nausea which I really feel like I need to have. I had it with my first baby and I didn’t have it with my loss 😢 I really want this to be a baby and not another loss

I’m so happy for you to have that heartbeat 💓 that is such a wonderful feeling and huge relief

Hi Candyce, first of all, I'm sorry for your loss. And secondly, congratulations. Of course, grieve your loss, but also try to take it easy, one day at a time. If you don't feel excited yet, it's fine. You need to mourn your baby first. One emotion at a time xx

@Lisa I didn’t have any nausea with my first or with this one! My mom didn’t have any with me. I was nervous about that too but not everyone gets it!

@Deb that’s such a great way to look at it One at a time.
