13 w today, all US have been reassuring, low risk NIPT, low risk NT.

I had a blighted ovum diagnosed at 10w in may of this year that stopped growing around 6. I took the meds but ultimately needed a d&c. It took 10 agonizing weeks to get my period back after d&c - so not till mid July. This was the absolute worst, I truly feel for anyone in the waiting period. It was awful.

I got a positive test 2nd cycle trying - early September/ but this was another loss around 5w.

Another positive mid October, and somehow here we are at 13w. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Hoping for everyone out there 🌈

5 weeks today. Had and ultrasound second HCG check. Everything looked good so I’m feeling a lot more confident and comfortable but it’s still scary.

My mom saw how upset I was the first time and doesn’t want me to get my hopes up but I feel like only being negative (and I often catastrophize on my own!) doesn’t do any good either.

When can you finally stop holding your breath?
