T&Ps please!!
Well... got another BFP!!! I am *barely* pregnant.
We are cautiously excited. Having a m/c really messes with your mind! On Sunday, I thought a few times "oh, I should be 29 wks today"... but it didn't make me sob uncontrollably like it had the past few months (have had the worst/crazy emotional PMS since the m/c in July). Then I thought... hmm, I went to bed before 10 on both Friday and Saturday and I haven't spotted like I have pre-AF since the miscarriage. And I'm tired today. That's weird. So... bought a test when i was at the grocery store, and woo hoo!
I just happened to have an appointment scheduled with a new OB on Monday, and he seems good. My thyroid is still slightly out of whack (or my meds are off), but it's nothing like it was in June/July. He's drawing betas and measuring progesterone every week, and have an ultrasound in 3 weeks (at around 7 weeks). If this one sticks around, I'd be due the week of our anniversary!!
Thanks!!

Stick Baby Stick!! Grow Baby Grow!!! Congratulations!!!! PgAL is definitely hard stuff. I'm here if you want to talk (you can also find me on FB, I'm there a lot more than on TN or TB.) Here are a few points that helped me in the first scary bit... .
Today I am pregnant and I love my baby
A previous miscarriage does not mean I will have another miscarriage
You cannot ?jinx? your pregnancy by creating a ticker, getting excited, or telling someone. Live in the positive!
Today's worries don't change tomorrow's troubles; they only steal today's joy.
You Grew in My Heart instead of My Tummy

Congrats Ellen!! That is great news. I will keep you in my prayers and pray for a sticky baby!!
I agree MCs mess with your mind. I had a hard time for a few months after mine and still being around babies is hard sometimes. My emotions were also a mess for months! I have been doing much better lately. However, my due date would have been Dec. 15th and as that date approaches, I find myself feelings the sad feelilngs again and grieving.
I am so glad you posted because I had been thinking about how you were doing!
