BFP!!! Extremely grateful but scared about Covid-19. Help!
Hi Ladies,
I just got a positive pregnancy test over the weekend and am feeling extremely grateful but at the same time am second guessing everything because of Covid. This will hopefully be our 2nd child and my husband and I debated long and hard if we should ttc or wait due to covid. At the end of the day I didn’t feel like we had the time. It took 3 years to have our first due to a series of recurrent miscarriages. Our rainbow baby was my 7th time being pregnant and she is truly a miracle. I am 36 now and have a slightly diminished egg reserve for my age and also question my egg quality. Anyway this last cycle we decided to try and I never in a million years would have guessed I would get pregnant especially since I am still breastfeeding my 17 month old but here I am with a BFP!
I praying for a healthy sticky baby, but also feeling stressed/scared about covid-19, possible exposure at all the doctors appointments and of course delivery in January. I feel guilty feeling anything but hopeful and blessed to be pregnant again but can’t help it and don’t want to put my daughter at risk either. Again, we didn’t decide to try on a whim and this had always been our timeline although We pushed off ttc for 2 cycles due to covid but I felt like we didn’t have time to wait any longer and also couldn’t wait possibly years for a vaccine because I might miss my window.
Is anyone else feeling this way or have any reassuring thoughts?! Please!
