BFP a few mins ago....happy and terrified!

I am in disguise for now because i haven't told DP yet.

I got a bfp on a tesco test a few mins ago and i am so so happy but at the same time i am terrified! My last pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage and i am so worried that it could happen again. I feel sick already which was one of the reasons i did the test as i have irregular periods so no idea when i should be due. I didn't have ANY symptoms last time.

I want to run around telling everyone my news but i would be so gutted if i then had to tell them i had miscarried again. Would you rather know that someone was pregnant and then be told they had miscarried or would you just rather not know?

AM shaking i am so pleased and scared!!

Congratulations!

I've been in the same situation as you and now have a beautiful DD! Enjoy your pregnancy as much as you can. Go to the doctors and ask about a dating scan.

oh congratulations...I can understand your mixed feelings - wishing you a wonderful and stress free pregnancy

LilRedWG · 17/07/2007 10:14

Agree - it's what you want and need that counts - not everyone else!

HenriettaHippo · 17/07/2007 10:15

Congratulations! It really is up to you whether to tell people or not - you only need to worry about yourself!

aww congratulations

peeonastick · 17/07/2007 10:18

well, i didn't have the support of my family when i miscarried. I think i would have if i had asked for it but i hid away.

Am worried now because i have been cramping, and i thought AF was on the way on friday so i wore a tampon...oh god this is going to be so worrying! You would think i was a first timer!!

Fantastick news from the phantom pee'er! Congratulations.
I was in exactly the same situation as you (mmc then preg again) and couldn't tell a soul, but it is totally up to you. I was aware that as this would be the first GC on both sides of our family, the reaction would be one of wild excitement and I couldn't face the prospect of telling and then having to dissapoint everyone if I misscarried again.
Am due in 6 weeks, so am dealing with hugely over-excited GPs!! Good luck!!

First of all many congrats!

It's only natural to be scared even if you hadn't had a m/c, but even more so that you have.

But that doesn't mean this pregnancy will end up in m/c does it, so tell yourself that thousands of women have had m/c and gone on to have a baby.

My friend just m/c at 17 weeks and I knew at 5 wks when she found out and she has a history of m/c but, even so, it was wonderful to share in her joy for the short time she was pregnant.

So personally I'm glad she told me and I could support her when she lost the baby, because if she hadn't told me I would still have known something was up when she lost it and found it more difficult to help.

But don't even think about that! Think +++++++ yippee

But I understand your reticence in telling everyone - I'm sure you want to shout it from the rooftops!

thank you for all messages.

Can come out of hiding now as i have told DP. He took it quite well. It wasn't entirely planned but not exactly unplanned either.
