I'm just going to throw this here. I'm not ready to talk about it in real life yet (except with gozf, who kindly congratulated me while I cried this morning). I am pregnant. We really want a baby , though this was a surprise because we weren't exactly trying last month and I thought our timing sucked. I want to be excited, but I had an ectopic in December and I am so scared it's going to happen again. Like, I'm not sure if the amount I'm crying and worrying about this is normal. I start lab work tomorrow and keep going after that to see how my hcg levels are. So for now, any good vibes you could throw my way that this pregnancy ends with a healthy baby would be greatly appreciated.
Good vibes for a happy and healthy 9 months. When I got pregnant after my mc I worried every.single.day and it took me a long time to really be comfortable being pregnant so I understand what you are feeling and would say it's totally normal.

Good vibes. Are they going to monitor things closer in the first tri? They did this with me after two m/c. Also, renting a doppler was the best money spent during my pregnancy.
Congratulations and good luck. I'm sorry you went through what you did in December, and I'm sorry that it is affecting your excitement now. Sticky vibes are coming your way.
Crying and worrying after a loss - especially such a physically demanding one - is completely normal. Take your time. Feel what you feel. See if your doc can get you in for blood tests or even a earlier ultrasound to determine if the fetus is in your uterus. Good luck!
It took me until about 8 weeks (after a slew of blood tests and two ultrasounds) to even admit to myself I was pregnant again. And I'm only now announcing at 15+ weeks.
Thank you, everyone. It really does mean so much. And hearing people say that it's normal and okay to cry is just making me cry harder Ha! I'm such a mess.
The doctor's office wants to closely monitor me so I start the lab work tomorrow then go back Monday to see if my levels doubled. They want to do that for at least the first eight weeks, and during that time, they may bring me in for an early ultrasound if they think it's necessary.
