Pregnancy after MC

Amanda

Hi ladies. I’m currently 4 weeks pregnant, and I had a miscarriage in December 2016. I had my first doctors appointment yesterday for a blood pregnancy level and urine test. I’m to go back on Saturday for a repeat blood pregnancy level to make sure it had doubled. I’m very nervous and I just want to know now that everything is ok. My current HCG level shows that I’m 4 weeks like I should be. I’m nauseous and queasy in the mornings and sometimes throughout the day. I would think the symptoms would reassure me, but I’m still nervous to get excited about being pregnant. I have a pressure in my lower abdomen every now and then, and Dr said it could be uterus growing and stretching. Of course my brain wants to think it’s something bad though. The pressure I’m feeling is definitely not cramps, and I have not had any spotting at all. Please help me reassure myself and be patient for my HCG level on Saturday. I just want to relax and be happy about this.
