Hi, and welcome. This blog has changed a bit recently. My husband and I fought through 4 consecutive losses to get our second healthy child (born in December 2012) . . . and while we had not shut the door on the idea of another pregnancy, we certainly were leaning in that direction. On August 8, 2014, we found out we are pregnant for the 7th time. A total surprise. So the neurotic journey continues . . . third child or fifth loss . . . I'm scared and confused and just a teensy bit excited . . .

In my head

My mind races a million miles an hour and I can not articulate any of the thoughts in isolation. But it goes something like this...

Iamnotfeelingenoughsymptoms.Chilloutfreakyouarenoteven5weekspregnant.Thereisnowaythispregnancywillwork.Thereisnowayourluckcanbebadenoughtoloseanotherone.Iwanttopeeonanothertesttoseehowdarkthelineis.Nothatscrazy.WhatiftheyseenothingonThursday.IshouldpreparemyselfforseeingnothingonThurday.OMGThursdayisamillionhoursaway.IfthisisanothermiscarriageIcantdothisagain.Iamcrazy.Andneurotic.AndthereisnowayIwillevergetanotherlivingchild.IguessIdontdeserveanotherlivingchild.Ifeellikecrying.GreatnowImcrying.Pullyourselftogetherandstopcrying.

:repeat indefinitely:

And it never ends. Never.
