@pugh I just wanted you to know I am right here with you. Iām 5 wks 4 days today. First pregnancy was a chemical in Feb of ā22. I got pregnant via IUI December 22ā, and that ended in an MMC at 12 weeks- found out at the scan that our baby stopped growing around 8 weeks. After waiting weeks to miscarry naturally I had a D&C in March.
We did our third IUI December ā23 and it was successful. Iāve been managing the anxiety well for the last week and a half, but partially I think that is because Iām just scared to truly connect in case something happens again. My first scan is 1/24 at exactly 8 weeks and just in the last two days my anxiety has really started to ramp up. I think the best we can do is try to keep ourselves distracted and keep the anxiousness at bay through anything that helps us feel good- meditation, light exercise/stretching, sunshine, good food, fun, etc.
Thank you to the other posters for their helpful tips for the weeks ahead.
Keep us posted on your progress! You are in my prayers.
