I am now just about 11 weeks along. This is my worrisome week. We lost our first baby around this time, although I was having troubles before learning the baby had no heartbeat. This pregnancy has been fine and for the most part I have had much peace about it, until this week. I am just not "feeling" pregnant. I am still having symptoms, nausea, hurting boobs, indigestion and tiredness, but that feeling of loss always creeps in about this time for me.
I hate not being able to be naive about pregnancy, but at the same time know that God took me through that loss for a reason. It was a time of great faith growing for me and God started directing me towards the Biblical understanding of motherhood. I am just ready for the next few weeks to be over with, so I can officially be in the 2nd trimester.

It is hard being a Mama, we are called to have open hearts, even to pain and loss. I am so sorry you lost your first Sweet Baby, what a precious life and that Baby is rejoicing with our Savior.
I pray that the Lord of All Creation helps you relax and gives you peace as He knits ANOTHER gift and blessing inside your womb.
Many Blessings Honey!

girl, i know that exact feeling. i do. i can remember being up crying & crying, scared to death i'd lose adrianne. praying for you.
Thanks for your prayers:)
I have been there too. I haven't been pregnant again since my loss back in October (that was my fifth pregnancy), but I can easily imagine having those same feelings if/when I am blessed with another. I will be praying for perfect peace, and for a very uneventful pregnancy!
