I'm so sorry for your loss- miscarriages are so hard. I was an absolute mess when I was pregnant with my son after my MC, waiting for the shoe to drop. I was even googling "how much does anxiety hurt a fetus" because it was so bad.<br /> One technique from my therapist was acceptance- "well, I am super anxious because I lost a baby before and I'm pregnant. Of course I'm anxious. This is normal" It made me feel way better about it- to just accept of course I was nervous for good reason.<br /> I have also read that you really suffered some traumatic stuff- its PTSD that sort of hijacks your brain after loss and I think some people don't understand the residual impact of that.<br /> So give yourself some grace. I liked to stay busy, mediate, exercise, talk to friends and family, and just basically understand it was normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916780 Tue, 23 Jun 2020 19:12:52 +0000 Shybee23 2916780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone. Helps to know I’m not crazy, or alone in feeling this way (though I wouldn’t wish for anyone else to go through this). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916735 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 22:03:34 +0000 ALV91711 2916735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hugs mama. Sorry that you have to go through this. I had a loss and then was almost a year later when I got pregnant with DS2. I didn’t ever enjoy the pregnancy the same as when I had DS1. Always waiting/wondering if something was going to happen. </p> <p>Take care of yourself and hopefully you can enjoy your pregnancy even a little. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916692 Sun, 21 Jun 2020 18:13:59 +0000 dc yoga bee 2916692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’m sorry for your loss. I too got pregnant a month after a miscarriage and had infertility with both children. I definitely was more detached from the pregnancy and it was high risk. I also had severe hyperemesis worse than with my daughter and had it with the miscarriage in between and felt like I couldn’t catch a break. I ended up being induced at 37 weeks with pre-eclampsia again and ended up having heart complications that landed me back in the hospital 5 days postpartum. Baby boy is 16 months now and was totally worth the stress and heartache. I hope you have an uneventful and healthy pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916691 Sun, 21 Jun 2020 17:52:26 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2916691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shybee23: My daughter was born at 37 weeks and I was a terrified mess the entire time. I sobbed when I heard her cry after she was born because I was just so relieved. I am so sorry for your loss, but know you are experiencing totally normal feelings :( Praying the rest of your pregnancy is as peaceful as it can be &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916689 Sun, 21 Jun 2020 15:40:26 +0000 Shybee23 2916689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks so much. It helped to read this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916671 Sat, 20 Jun 2020 14:24:46 +0000 msmilkshake 2916671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First, I’m sorry for your loss and congratulations on being pregnant again. I don’t think you are crazy! I’m at 39 weeks with my pregnancy after loss and I have yet to totally shake that feeling that something is going to go wrong. Also, I think it’s worth noting that we are also pregnant in a very high anxiety time in the world! I have also found therapy and mindfulness so helpful, but I also just try to give myself the grace to know that my feelings are my feelings but/and I’m pregnant with a healthy baby and I’m taking it one day at a time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-miscarriage-1#post-2916666 Sat, 20 Jun 2020 11:01:03 +0000 Shybee23 2916666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a miscarriage in December. I got pregnant again quickly, which I’m very grateful for, but I cannot shake the feeling that I am just waiting for something to go horribly wrong. I keep thinking each milestone will make me feel a little better - making it past the week I miscarried, getting to 2nd trimester, etc. - but that doesn’t seem to be happening. I had my 20 week ultrasound last week and everything looks good, and I know that should make me feel better, but it doesn’t. I know it’s irrational but I feel like I just KNOW something will go wrong, and I’m pretty sure my family thinks I am crazy. </p> <p>I’m seeing a therapist, I’m on anxiety meds (predating pregnancy), I’m using the Expectful meditation app every day...I am just starting to think maybe I would relax til I’m holding her. I wasn’t anxious at all when I was pregnant with my son. Just looking for advice or confirmation I’m not crazy I guess. Thanks. </p>
