pregnancy after loss

  • Tristine's Truimph -- Entry Two

    I am pregnant. I am so scared. I am worried about my reaction to seeing the pregnancy test result. I cannot believe my body just started trembling.

  • Tristine's Triumph Entry Six

    I went in today and got my blood drawn. They called me with the results. My HCG is fine but my progesterone is low.

  • Can I Have a Baby After a Stillbirth?

    QUESTION

    Dear Doula,
    My baby was stillborn 36 weeks into the pregnancy. It looks right now to be an antibody I have that produces blood clots. My doctor said I have to wait for 1 cycle and then I can start trying again. She has me set up for appointments with specialists.

    I was just wondering if you knew of any people who have lost so late into the pregnancy and have had a successful pregnancy after that.

    Thank you for your quick response.

  • Anxiety Early in Subsequent Pregnancies

    QUESTION

    Dear Experts,
    I have suffered 4 losses in the past year and a half. I am now just over 5 weeks pregnant and I am a basket case. Every time I am waiting for my beta results, I cry like a baby until I get them. My last results only doubled in 73 hours, so now I am in a complete state of panic! How do I deal with it?

    Thank you.

  • Another Pregnancy After a Baby Dies

    QUESTION

    Dear Experts,
    Last year we lost a baby girl to SIDS at the age of 3 months. Now, I am 5 months pregnant. We are both excited, but scared. We worry it will happen again. Also I feel guilty about having another baby. What could we do to help alleviate some of the stress?

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry Seven

    I went into the doctor's office today to get another blood draw. I asked the tech if the tests would be rushed like last time since my nurse never mentioned it to me.

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry 13

    What a crazy week this has been. I haven't had much time to think about our pregnancy with everything that has been going on. I guess that is a good thing though.

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry 14

    Another milestone passed and only one more to go! Today I went in for my first physical exam and another ultrasound.

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry 17

    Yesterday I had to go to the doctor's appointment by myself. I didn't like the idea because I feared the worse. My husband wasn't able to attend due to a work situation he could not get out of, especially since he is taking the rest of the week off for when I get the stitch in.

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry 22

    Over the last two days, I have been feeling something odd. I saw my doctor today so I talked to him about this new feeling because it reminds me of the feeling I had when Gabe was delivered.

  • Amanda's Journey Final entry -- week 33

    So here I sit. Months have gone by and I have not written. After writing my entry on my due date I just lost all goals for writing. There were just too many thoughts and happenings. Too many to put into words. It sounds like an excuse and it probably is. I guess I was just overwhelmed with it all.

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry 30

    Wow! I am 25 weeks pregnant today! Never, ever could I imagine myself getting this far into pregnancy. This is such a wonderful feeling.

  • Tristine's Triumph -- Entry 24

    I think I have been getting used to the roller coaster ride. But I also feel things settling down on the home front some. My in-laws have been wonderful to help me out and my husband has seemed in a way better mood.
