Pregnant again, and still unashamedly optimistic

[iMum]

Right so I had a miscarriage 5 weeks ago and it seems i am once more up the duff-a huge shock seeing as we only had sex on day 10 and from day 24 as we had decided that that was it-no more trying so I know it must be a new pregnancy and not hormones left over from the last one as I did 4 hpg after the miscarriage and all came back negative then the 2 +tive tests 4/3 days ago.
Now I am yet again completly convinced that this will result in a baby, am thinking about names planning the nursery etc-you'd think by now Id be a little wait and see so ive no idea how far gone i am, in a normal cycle I ovulate on day 18/19 so did I ovulate really late this month? no idea.
Im obvs going to go to the docs tomorrow but they cant do anything as the EPU wont do an early scan until you get to 8 weeks, whenever that may be.
Youd think that after everything ive been through in this department I wouldnt let myself get so excited, I just can help it

congrats i am so pleased for you. i think it is good that you are positive about this pregnancy, it can do no harm. well you are probably between 4 and weeks. this is excellent news. i hope you are gong to tel the oct gang. stay positive and keep taking the folic acid etc etc.

Congratulations!!

Listen, you would be no less upset and miserable if things went wrong just because you had not been excited. Let yourself be excited, let yourself visualise this baby when it arrives, and try to enjoy what you can.

I am not being flippant - I had a missed miscarriage and was very anxious going into the next pregnancy, but somehow knowing that I could survive/handle the miscarriage allowed me to enjoy it in part. I was still anxious but I felt the optimism helped.

All the best and here's to a happy, uneventful 9 months ahead

congratulations iMum - get yourself to the doctors asap to book yourself a scan.

I miscarried 12 weeks ago (at 6 weeks). I am now 12 weeks pregnant. It can happen- the first few weeks were nervewrecking. I had a scan at 8 weeks and all was fine. A scan any earlier would not have reassured me. My next scan is tomorrow.

Good luck

congratulations and good luck!

thanks folks, I've wanted this pregnancy for so long- I can feel every fiber of me just willing it to go well! Just dreading the"bad wipe" as it was put on another thread the day.
