Premature baby who came at 24 weeks and pregnant again

[JessicaM111]

I had a baby boy on the 1st of June 2022, who came at 24 weeks 4 days, we spent 150 days in the neonatal unit travelled to 6 different hospitals, he underwent lots of surgery for multiple different things, he came home on the 27th of September, he’s due date was the 17th of September.
He came home on oxygen but is now currently off and very happy other than the regular hospital visits for him and the surgery upcoming, we was very settled, I was taking the mini pill and then only 2 weeks ago found out I am pregnant again.
I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks in 2018, I then had a baby at 22 weeks 6 days in 2020 who made the angels very happy by he’s presence, I then had a miscarriage at 12 weeks in 2020 and a ectopic in 2020, I also had a little baby boy at 16 weeks in 2021 who also sadly didn’t survive, and now I am feeling the pressure and don’t know how to feel about the new baby, I was just wondering if there’s any other Mummys out there who has been through something similar and would care to express how they coped🙄

So sorry to her about your experiences OP. I had 6 miscarriages before my son was born. All between 8 and 18 weeks. I understand what you're going through. My son was born full term but only weighed 4lbs11. Blamed myself a lot even though I was fit, healthy, didn't smoke, didn't drink etc. I don't know how I would feel if I were to get pregnant again but I'm sure it would be a worry. Have you spoken to your GP/midwife about how you feel? They may know of some resources which can help or services which can help you talk things through.

I’m sorry to hear about your experience and loses ❤️❤️

I have just had my booking appointment with the midwife this evening and spoke to her and expressed how I feel but as all people say “I know it’s easily said but please don’t stress” I want to be happy but I also don’t know how to feel, my DS is 6months old (2 months corrected) and very porly I feel selfish for having another baby right now, but I suppose that’s how I am gonna feel, i darent even tell the family I am pregnant again because they would just be as worried as me.. x

Just wanted to see how you and your LO are doing now @JessicaM111?
