Any rainbow baby mummas scared? 5w4d

Question

I lost my first pregnancy last year. After finally getting my life back together and just about to be referred to fertility clinic we found out that we are expecting miracle baby #2 after being told we probably wouldn't be able to conceive again naturally.

I thought I would be ok but I'm feeling so stressed with every ache and pain. I'm having cramping and my hormones are crazy mad. I know the worse I feel the more my body is doing what it should but I don't feel like I can relax and enjoy this just yet, just in case. I'm in no way being negative in fact in quite positive with everything so far. Is anyone else feeling like this? Xx

Answer

Hi Emma. I have had 7 miscarriages and had only one little girl. I have just found out in 4 weeks pregnant again. I cried a lot initially, because I am so scared to go thru another loss. But as hard as it is, i have put my fears aside and am focussing on all the positives that are ahead. The worry will always be in the back if my mind...it's only natural with loss. Just do your best to focus on the positives...whatever is meant to be will be 😊🌈🍼🎠🎈

Answer

Definitely scared. Had a mc in November. 5w4d today. I had an ultrasound today and was able to see the baby and heartbeat which was definitely reassuring, but I know I'll still be nervous the whole pregnancy. I was holding my breath at the ultrasound and when I heard the heart beat it was such a relief. Last time we went in at 8 weeks and there was no heartbeat. It was devastating. Can't wait to be past the 8 week mark for a little more relief.

Thank you! I have accepted what happened. It's just every cramp or stretch or anything is freaking me out a little. No matter how positive I am. Unfortunately I'm in the U.K. it's 1 in 4 chance and they won't do any tests. It's just praying until my 12 weeks scan ❤️❤️❤️

Terrified! 😢 had a MC earlier this year and now about 4w5d with our rainbow! Had bloodwork yesterday and waiting for the results now! I will have bloodwork again tomorrow to see if my hcg levels are doubling like they are supposed too! If all goes well my first ultrasound is scheduled for good Friday! 😊 praying we all get sticky babies!

Answer

I am 6 weeks today with rainbow baby and I feel exactly the same.
Doctors give us statistics but honestly 1 in 5 pregnancies being a miscarriage doesn't make me feel any better. The thing about a miscarriage, is that 9 times/10 it is completely unavoidable. It is due to a development issue and the pregnancy simply cannot continue. Basically, even if you eat as healthy as humanly possible and your tests come back perfect - it's just "one of those things" and out of our control.
I'm sorry for your loss as I am for mine - acceptance is key to moving on.
Best of luck to both of us I hope we both have beautiful big babies 💗

Girl I am SO anxious. This is my miracle baby as well. We had a very traumatic miscarriage last year at 10 weeks. My husband has very low sperm counts so we were so excited to find out I was pregnant. I am terrified every day! Wish I could relax! My due date is only 2 days off from my angel baby's due date 😞

Answer

I am so scared. I have had 3 miscarriages and they all stop growing around 6 weeks. I am 5 weeks today and I just started cramping so I'm getting pretty nervous right now.

Answer

Scared as week. 5 weeks and 1 day today and have started cramping a little. Had a miscarriage back in July at 6 weeks and started cramping at about 5-5.5 so I'm terrified. Gonna call and schedule an appt tomorrow this is my 3rd pregnancy I have a beautiful baby boy who is 4 so I'm hoping everything is okay and I'll have a healthy 9 months with this little one. Wishing all you rainbow Mommys a happy and healthy 9 months !! 👶🏼❤️
