Rainbow baby after stillbirth

Nicole

Hi all!

Just wanted to introduce myself. I am 9w1d pregnant with my rainbow baby. I have 3 boys. My 4th boy had full Trisomy 18 and was stillborn at 35 weeks. I know the chances of this baby having a chromosomal abnormality is less than 1% but I'm still so nervous. I have my first doctor appointment this Thursday and I keep feeling like something will be wrong or it will be a missed miscarriage. I know these feelings are normal. We haven't told anyone yet, not even family, until our genetic screening and ultrasound comes back clear of any problems.

Any mommies here pregnant with their rainbows after stillbirth?
