First pregnancy post-missed miscarriage and feeling anxious

Hi all, I've never posted on something like this before, but I was a secret lurker for the last couple of months of last year as I went through the roller-coaster of getting pregnant for the first time and then finding out at my 11 week scan, a few days before xmas, that I'd had a missed miscarriage. Thanks to all of you who shared your stories and support on here - I read through so many of them and it really helped me to know I wasn't alone, and to get through it all (I ended up having a D&C on New Year's Eve - not the greatest way to see in the new year, but it all went well, and was glad to put it all behind me.) Anyway, a couple of months on, I've just got a positive pregnancy test, and I really don't know how to feel about it. I want to be happy and excited, but I'm so scared to get my hopes up in case it all goes wrong again. Of course, the current situation also makes it tough. My husband is telling me I should self-isolate, but we live in a tiny flat and going out for daily walks keeps me sane, and I'm struggling to take it seriously as I have no symptoms yet and can't help feeling it isn't real and won't last again. Anyway, thanks for letting me get it off my chest. If there's anyone out there going through, or been through similar things, I'd love to hear how you're doing or how you dealt with it. Lots of love to all of you.

Sending you lots of positivity and I'd definitely say enjoying some fresh air can't be a bad thing as long as you are social distancing. I'm hoping to be in the same situation as you soon but currently still TTC after a MMC in March 🌈💜
