7 weeks today!!!  It feels like a milestone and yet I still have trouble believing this baby will make it.  It feels like it will be a huge miracle if he or she makes it.  I feel bad feeling so negative, but I know it's my mind trying to protect me from devastation again.  I feel like I am looking for signs-- whether it's a dream or a symptom or something to give me answers.  I used to think I had these really intuitive dreams.  When I had my first m/c I had a really vivid dream a couple of days before I lost the baby.  I had a dream that I was having a m/c shortly after I found out I was pregnant this time and was sure I would m/c any day-- but that was like 2 weeks ago so I feel better.  Then I dreamt I delivered a stillborn baby last week.  I think it's really just anxiety.

Other than that, I am doing really well.  I am trying to get my life organized.  Summer is rapidly coming and I know how crazy things get once the kids are out of school so I am trying to get organized so I can just enjoy being with my kids.  Happy Monday to all of you!

    I completely understand how you must be feeling. I do think it is the anxiety related to what you have been through. I told my therapist last week that I couldn't envision myself being pregnant, ever, and she thought it was definitely a protective mechanism. I do hope the anxiety gets better for you. I will be thinking of you and sending prayers and hugs your way! I am here if you need to talk! Congrats on the 7 week milestone! Small victories, whoohoo!

    woo hoo!!!! 7 weeks and counting.

    the dreams are probably anxiety about the last pregnancy, and not foretelling about this one...

    Awesome! 7 weeks:) I am 18 weeks today. The anxiety doesn't seem to go away. I have just come to the conclusion I won't be at ease until I deliver a healthy baby:) Just try to keep positive. I wish you the best! Hugs, Kristin
