I know I haven't posted here too much but I wanted to let you guys know...

I had a m/c in January and we decided to start trying again last cycle. So AF was due yesterday and I had been having cramps since the night before. All day yesterday at work I had cramps and everytime I went to the toilet, which was about 25 times I had a tampon in hand but it never showed. So when I got home and it still hadn't showed I thought I have to test just so I know that it's on it's way and I can stop thinking that there is a possibility that I'm pregnant.

Well I rushed because my DH was to be home in 5 minutes and I didn't want him to know I was testing. So I do my thing...stare at it...nothing...for a 30 seconds...go yell at the dogs because they are barking like crazy!! Then I head back, look at the test and...BFP! I couldn't believe it! I literally almost passed out! I was shaking so bad I went to the kitchen and stood there with the test in hand and drank three huge glasses of water to try to calm down. I told DH as soon as he walked in the door.

It's funny because I feel nothing like the last time I was pregnant and had a m/c so I'm taking that as a good sign. I am very nervous and trying not to get too excited but it's hard not to think about the future and that this one will stick and I hope and pray that it does.

This board is great and I want to thank you all for being here. I didn't post a lot but I read a lot of posts and learned a lot and didn't feel so alone.

I hope you all get your sticky beans!!!!!!!

When I was pregnant with my last one that ended up in m/c I thought for sure my period was coming. I was moody like I normally am around that time and I also had AF like cramps. I was so sure it was coming that I put in a tampon before work and was shocked when I came home and there was nothing on it. On the ttc forums they have somewhere where people can list the pregnany symptoms and there are many women who say they have AF like cramps too on the day their periods were due.


I just got another + yesterday and I'm freaked out. I'm 1 day behind you. I just don't want the same thing to happen again. This time I knew I was pregnant by Wed because my boobs felt fuller than they normaly do and I decided to take a test yesterday. It is weird how I felt symptoms sooner this time. Is it possible I ovulated before 2 weeks after my m/c? I don't know but I just hope this one sticks.

Congratulations!

It's funny, b/c I was similar in the sense I tested when my husband was in the shower. I didn't want him knowing I tested either of course until after I tested positive. Then after crying for a minute, I went and showed him.

We too had a m/c about 2 1/2 years ago. It took us 2 years to get pregnant that time and about 2 1/2 years to get pregnant this time. I think I'm so scared of m/c again b/c it takes us so long to get pregnant. We're both a little older (34 and 39) so if it takes 2 more years..... Anyway, I'm trying to have positive thoughts.

My pregnancy symptoms are different than last, which I take as a good sign. I feel much more pregnant this time than last. I go for an early u/s on Thursday, so as the day gets closer of course I start getting more paranoid that the doc will see something wrong. I'm just really hoping she'll see a heartbeat and I can stop obsessing (as much).

Good luck to you though!!!
