Thankful to have a BFP
Hello!! I've been an on-again/off-again visitor to this board. One of my last posts was probably about a MC we had in May 2011. I'm happy to say this post is about me being pregnant again! We are due early July.
I am so thankful I am pregnant. I'm still not super excited because I am fearful of having another MC. However, I do expect to get more excited once I have the appointments where the heartbeat can be heard. I had an U/S last week and the baby was doing great so there is no cause for concern...yet the worry is still there. :/
Anyways, just wanted to pop in and share my good news!
Met him 12/2001 in NJ; He moved from NJ to WA 05/2002; Married 06/2006; Attempt #1 2008 with Clomid and metformin, no luck. Decided to go back on BCP; LapBand 09/2009 at 371.1 lbs. Got down to 268 by 2012; Went off BCP 08/2010. Started Metformin; BFP 05/01/2011 followed by MC 05/13/2011 (Friday the 13th of all days!). Upped Metformin 09/2011; Continued on Metformin. On 10/28/2012 (3 days before semen analysis), had BFP :) Due date 07/07/13 by size of baby but 6/30/13 by LMP. Taken off Metformin at 8 weeks due to elevated liver levels.
Congrats! I know it's extremely difficult to not have that nagging worry about miscarriage. I had a miscarriage, had my son, and I'm now 8 weeks. I'm just getting through week by week while hoping and praying for the best. I think I've read that after 12 or 13 weeks the chance of miscarriage drops to something around 3%, which is extremely low. Keep your head up, you're pretty much past the scary stage.
Big Fat Positive :)
And thank you everyone for the reassuring words!
