After 3 miscariages we're tryin again

Well after 3 miscarriages in the past 18 months im pregnant again. I've had a 9 week scan because of my history and im terrified that something is going to go wrong. Im not booked for another scan for nearly three weeks which has me scared half to death. Im trying to be optomistic but there is nothing about this pregnancy that differes to the previous three. Im 10 w 6d pregnant. I have sore boobs and im tired but other than that - NOTHING. Nothing is different. No morning sickness or anything. Has anyone else experienced this?

First Pregnancy!! :)

We just found out on September 5 that I am pregnant. My husband and I are extatic about this. We are newleyweds and have known that we wanted to have a child right away. Per the data online the calculation shows that we conceived on the wedding night. Pretty Awesome!! There were definitely no guarantees as to how fast this would happen. As it took some friends of ours a year to get pregnant. We can't wait until the 18th when the doctors appt is scheduled. My husband and I are planning on telling my parents tonight. This will be their first grandchild!! :) It's amazing to read how fast everything is happening. The baby develops at such an increadibly fast rate.
I wish everyone the best of luck in their pregnancy as well as the best of luck to those who are trying!!

P.S. For those who are experiencing symptoms at what stage did you first notice them? How many weeks were you and what symptoms did you have?

Crazy

I have been trying to get pregnant for the past two months and never thought it would happen so fast. For the past month I have been having cramps and was worried there was something wrong with me. The one thing I was concerned about was not being able to get pregnant.That maybe my body was going through one of the worst thing possible because I missed 2 periods and had 3 negative pregnancy test in the past month.

So I went to the doctors yesterday because my cramps were happening all the time.She didnt really have any answers at all, just that I should take another test.I told her " it's going to be negative,but I will do it anyways". So this time instead of taking a urine test I took a blood test because its more accurate.I called later that day and they didnt have my results and was told to call in 10 minutes.

When I called she said it was positive.I asked her three different times if she was sure and she said yes.I'm still a little shocked and dont think it will actually kick in until I am further along and getting a pregnancy belly.

First and Scared

This is my first pregnancy, and this morning sickness needs to go away. I finally tested myself because I knew I wasnt having the flu for a week straight, and it came back positive. Im very scared of my families reaction when I tell them this weekend, Im having a bi-racial baby, and one side of my families extremely racist, so wish me luck!!

2nd pregnancy -- 20 years later

I just found out the I am pregnant! I am about 9 weeks and I am very happy yet freaked out! This is my second child. My first child just turned 20!! 20 years not months! I have no others! I have no idea what to expect with this second one. I can barely remember my pregnancy with my first one. I was only 16! Should I treat this one like a 'first' since it has been so long or can I expect the 'typical' second time symptoms? Has anyone else been through this situation or is currently? I'd just like to hear others thoughts and stories. Thanks!
