*Sensitive post* and worried it will end like last time

[chickp]

So I managed to wait until 6am to take a test and it was a bfp!!! I can’t believe I have a bfp naturally after Ttc for 4.5 years and 6 cycles of iui. We were due to start ivf in September.

Although there were no tears and jumping up and down like last time. It would have been my due date in two weeks time had the last one worked out.

Anyone been in the same situation? Any advice on coping with the anxiety that you’ll have another loss? The fear hasn’t really sunk in yet but I know it will.

Also I haven’t exactly been eating and drinking sensibly as we’re on holiday and I’m a bit worried about the travel sickness tablets I took on the way here...

every emotion that you’re feeling right now is of course completely normal and I believe that even for those that have never experienced a loss go through similar emotions.... I’m not about to tell you to relax it as it’s always easier said then done and I suppose you’ll never really get the reassurance until your baby is born...

As for drinking and taking sickness tablets I don’t suppose although you are ttc that you would have anticipated getting pregnant so I wouldn’t concern yourself too much with how you have been pre pregnancy or pre finding out (it may have been that glass or two that has allowed you to relax enough to get pregnant 😉) so take today as a new day for all things eating and drinking ☺️

I do hope in time you are able to get the reassurance you need and are able to enjoy your pregnancy!

Also congratulations ☺️☺️!!! Xxx

Thank you 🙂 It definitely hasn’t sunk in yet. I don’t feel the same excitement I did last time but I’m ok with that. I think I’ll try to step away from the internet for a bit to avoid the feeling that it’s more likely to go wrong than right xxx
