Dealing with Daily M/C Fears

Kholmes · #1 February 17th, 2008, 08:17 AM

I am 4 weeks, 2 days knocked up and I have had 2 self diagnosed chemical pregnancies within the last 5 months. How do I go through daily life without thinking "I may m/c and have to get used to that idea". Everyone I know, EVERYONE, has had at least 1 m/c before their baby was meant to thrive. I want to think maybe, just maybe my 1st BFP will be a sticky bean. Has it happened to anyone?

Trying to stay positive...hoping for the best,
kari

It is rough, I will say that. I am a little over 6w pg after a m/c in October. There have been a few days during this pg that I just broke down and cried b/c I was so scared of going through another loss. You just have to appreciate every day of your pg, and try your hardest to stay positive. I know it's easier said than done, believe me! Try to keep busy and keep your mind away from negative thoughts. I wish you the best of luck, and I'm sure we BOTH have nice sticky beans in there!

Im 8wks 2 days pregnant. my last pregnancy i lost my baby at 8wks3days (went in for an u/s and found no heartbeat) and am freaking out!!!

it is VERY hard not to worry all the time, but I just keep telling myselfi need to be positive for my baby and treasure every second. Sometimes I also break down and cry. but most of the time i pray/talk to the baby 24/7 to stay safe and healthy and alive, and that always makes me feel better.

I haven't gotten pg again since my loss, but I know I will be fearful too. Try not to stress too much

I think that the feeling you are having are very normal.

We have all been through some sort of pregnancy loss and none of us want to experience that again.

You are your little bean are in my T&Ps.
