Pregnant very soon after miscarriage

I had a missed miscarriage early June, and although it was an unexpected pregnancy in a new relationship we were over the moon and ready to make a real go of it. Obviously wheen things didn't work out we were devastated but accepted it just mustn't have been the right time for us. After one cycle me and my partner have concieved again. We weren't expecting it to happen so soon, we wanted to give ourselves time to heal so avoided having sex when I was ovulating but sure enough I got a BFP 2 days ago making me 5 weeks and 3 days. I honestly thought I'd feel really happy and as though the void had been filled but I dont....
I feel awful saying this, surely I should be the happiest person in the world? I cant understand my feelings, I just feel numb, and can't accept that I'm pregnant again.
Has anyone else ever experienced these kind of emotions, I feel like a numb, cold awful person and I can't see me ever getting back that lovely special feeling I had the first time around.

Sorry for your loss
got pg 1 week after a mmc with surgical intervention, didn’t know it was even possible. My periods hadn’t returned and I was basically pg for a year!
Physically it was ok but psychologically it was very very hard and I felt it was somehow disrespectful to my lost baby. I had to mostly fake my excitement at being pg again and I didn’t really bond with her until she was around 8 months old (pnd with hindsight).
Sorry, I wish I could tell you differently but it was hard. However, it did work out ok in the end, Dd is 14 now and awesome and I have a 10 year old as well
Good luck x
