First trimester - denial?

I'm around 6 weeks going off period dates, baby #2 ... I've done 4 tests since Friday - 2 first response - dark positives, a clear blue digital - positive and a boots own brand - positive.

But I just cannot believe it. I want to be excited and happy but I just keep thinking the tests are wrong, I'm going to rock up to my scan and there'll be nothing there, etc.

I've had a few symptoms (dry heaving at smells & tingly boobs) but I just can't seem to shake this feeling that it's not real and I'm not sure how to handle it.

With my first I felt like this a little but I was also super excited about being pregnant.

I had an early MC in July - and even though I've passed the day it happened, I just keep thinking it's going to happen again. Every twinge or slight cramp and I just expect the worse. Anybody else?

After loss, it's very hard to trust things will be okay, even though statistically most pregnancies do end in a baby, that isn't our experience. You'll find lots of people who understand here: www.mumsnet.com/talk/pregnancy/4616195-due-aprilmay-after-mc?page=14&reply=120531261
