I love your blog and I wish you all the luck in the world with TTC!<br /><br />Your post says everything I've been thinking about celebrating pregnancy. And that is why only my husband and my mom (well, and my blog readers!) know about my miscarriages. I wish I could bring myself to tell people so they could be there to provide support when things end badly, as they always seem to do.<br /><br />I don't really qualify for the term "subfertile", since both my pregnancies have been, um, less than planned. But I know I first heard the term from Kym at I'm a Smart One.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490746375774981338.post-46102585532698056432009-11-03T14:20:37.611-08:002009-11-03T14:20:37.611-08:00I wish I could say that those feelings go away the...I wish I could say that those feelings go away the second time around, but they don't. They get worse on a certain level because losing a pregnancy is not only losing that baby but a family member, a sibling--this hit me hard when I thought we were losing this baby. I hesitated telling anyone at all and most people didn't find out until just a few weeks ago, and I'm 21/22 weeks now. <br /><br />Pregnancy is amazing, but it is so so scary--something you wouldn't know until you've been touched with a "worst case" scenario. I wish your friend the best. And I hope that when you do have another that you will have more peace.

And I haven't had fertility problems ( at least nothing like most people go through) and even I wouldn't tell anyone until I was at least 13 weeks. Maybe 8 weeks if I saw the heart beat but even then so much can go wrong. I've only had one miscarriage (although it might have been more but only one that I know of we were trying for 13 months before I got pregnant so who really knows), so everything is a "if this last, if this sticks, if this happens".PamalaLaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04357664965020460429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490746375774981338.post-15759717612713333752009-11-03T09:35:32.899-08:002009-11-03T09:35:32.899-08:00*hugs*

I'm also sad that I couldn't just feel that uncontrolled happiness that other women feel when they find out they're having a baby. I think I had a panic attack everyday of my pregnancy. I missed out on the joy that most women take for granted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
