Exciting news

by Veronica on December 30, 2011

I appear to have fallen pregnant immediately after the miscarriage. Which is a) lovely and b) absolutely ridiculous.

I should never expect my body to do anything sensible and of course, getting pregnant twice in three months (after failing to fall pregnant for over two years) is EXACTLY the kind of shit my body pulls on a regular basis.

I am cautiously optimistic, feeling lots more like I’ve been hit by a bus than last time and the nausea feels more like morning sickness and less like an EDS reaction to progesterone. Which is me saying that eating dry toast and crackers eases it slightly, whereas EDS + progesterone nausea needs drugs to fix it. We’re getting some of that too.

Am I making sense, Internet?

By my reckoning, I’m about 5 weeks now, which is early still.

But there we go.

Pregnant.

river December 30, 2011 at 3:14 pm: When I read your last pregnancy post where you’d lost the baby, or never had one, but still felt pregnant, I wondered if maybe you’d conceived twins and just lost one of them. It happens.
Perhaps this was the case, or you DID fall pregnant immediately after the miscarriage. I did this with my last baby. Lost one, asked the doctor how long I should wait before trying again, he suggested 3 months. Well, 3 months later I was 10 weeks pregnant!
Congratulations.

I know this sounds weird but I’ve been wondering if you were pg. I’m so glad you are!!!!
I think Magnetoboldtoo is perhaps a little strange as a name. Try Kelley instead 😉

Big but very gentle hugs
