Pregnant Again - No Period Between

Share Your Story: Stories of Pregnancy After Miscarriage

My Current Pregnancy

8 days ago I delivered a beautiful and healthy baby boy after 2 pregnancy losses.

My Pregnancy Loss

After being diagnosed with a miscarriage in mid- October, I found out that I was pregnant again in mid-November, didn't even have a period in between!

Deciding to Get Pregnant Again

This was the second pregnancy loss in one year so I felt like I could never have children and we were not trying to get pregnant but not trying to avoid it either.

I was very scared during the whole first trimester on this pregnancy as part of me was waiting for "the other shoe to drop" and it wasn't until I had entered the relative safety of the second trimester that I could finally allow myself to feel happy about being pregnant and actually plan on having a baby.

Advice

  • I have found that when I surrender to the "if it's meant to be, it will happen" mentality that things work out smoothly for us.
