I been wanting to post for a few days now... but for some reason or another I end up procrastinating on it. The last time I wrote was about a month ago right after my d&c. Well, that was quite an experience. I hope never to have to go through again. After the week of recovery, the doc said to avoid getting pregnant again until I had had at least my first normal menstrual cycle. I'm not sure why doctors recommend that. From what I've read online (and trust me I read!) it seems that your chances of having a second miscarriage do not really get higher after a first miscarriage. Some people get pregnant right away and give birth to a healthy baby, while others that follow instructions and wait 3 months or more sometimes end up having another miscarriage.. so why wait?... I suppose its just to be 'safe' and let your body heal and go back to 0 pregnancy hormone levels.
Well, I didn't quite follow directions. I just really didn't want to listen. It seems that I might be pregnant again. I never got my period and a few weeks later I took a pregnancy test that came out positive. I scheduled a doctor appointment which will be in about a week, with a different doctor though, one that my mom, sister, and other family members suggested. Let's see what the deal is. If I'm pregnant again I will be happy, that's what I'd like... but scared at the same time. Hopefully everything goes well this time.
