BFP after miscarriage

So excited to wake up to a BFP this morning! I miscarried 6 months ago and as excited as I am to be expecting, I am freaking out! I want to shout it from the rooftops but after the last time I am scared out of my wits... any advice? EDD 8/22/12!

So happy for you. Praying everything goes well.  As far as letting others know, that's a tuff one.  I can never keep a secret and my patience level sucks..... just ask Momma Maryn
Good luck on your decision

hahahaha... patience grasshopper!

Congrats on your BFP!!!  With my first pregnancy I did shout it from the rooftops(not literally, but told everyone), then I too miscarried.  With my next 3 I kept it secret, lost those as well.  This current pregnancy I have kept it a secret and go for my viability scan Monday.  I am so nervous.  Hopefully on Wednesday I will get the results (here in Canada that is the way it works, the tech cannot tell you anything, the report goes to your DR then you get the results from him/her) and praying they will be good results then I may let the cat out of the bag or may continue to wait another 2 weeks for when I go for my IPS scan (get pictures at that one)on the 9th of Jan.  Dunno!!!  LOL  I am feeling confident with this pregnancy but will feel better when I start getting awesome results.

Again Congrats and hope you have a Happy & Healthy 9 Months!!!

I don't have any advice for you.  Just wanted to say Congratulations and prayers for a sticky baby!

Congrats on your BFP.  I got my 1st bfp and told A LOT of ppl.  Then I MC'd at 7wks.  Sending out that email was horrible!  Then a few months later, I MC'd again but much earlier.  So we didn't tell anyone on that one.  Now I'm pg again and I'm 10w3d today.  I got pg from IVF and had the benefit of a 6w2d US and a 8w2d US.  We saw the heartbeat on both US's and on the 2nd one my fertility doc confirmed that everything is looking very good and that the baby was measuring right on track perfectly.  He released me  back into the care of my OB.  At that point I made the big announcement to everyone.  We KNOW this lil one is our baby and is staying put for the long haul.

it's really a personal choice for everyone.  Some women keep it under wraps until they make it to the 2nd trimester.  There's no way I could have waited that long.  I say tell only the people you are the very closest to now and then when you see the heartbeat and know the fetus is growing on track, then you can decide if you want to make the big announcement then or wait until 2nd tri.

Good luck to you and hopefully this lil bean sticks!

 First of all, congrats to you!  I've had two miscarriages before I had my son six months ago and when I was pregnant with him I hesitated at first to tell everyone but then I realized that I shouldn't have to hide my excitement to anyone and that whatever happened was going to happen and if it that meant another miscarriage, as hard as that would be, it's far better to have told people and have their love and support if I had to go through that again.  I think if you want to shout your happiness about your sweet baby, feel free!  No matter what happens, you'll have plenty of love and support :). Best wishes to you and your baby :)

Awwww!!!My 14yo's birthday is the 22nd of August....Great day! Congrats!!

Thank you, everyone... the support is amazing. My fiance is on the side of mums the word as well, but that means I'll be waiting until practically Valentine's Day! This will truly be a test of my patience. Merry Christmas to me!!!!!

Congrats on your BFP! I also got a BFP this month, after an ectopic pregnancy in July. Last time I told everyone right away... and then kept people updated as things didn't progress normally. This time I am scared to tell too many people. I would prefer to go through a loss alone this time. Or, with close family only. I am waiting until close to or after 2nd trimester to announce this one at work. Ironically this pregnancy is looking much more normal than last one. Oh the things we learn!
Good luck! I say do what is right for you!
