Know exactly how you feel. Like the other ladies on here I lost a baby at 11weeks, and they said it was the size of a 8/9 week feutus. So you can imagine that I am presently living in limbo and not really enjoying this pregnancy like I would like to. (im not 8 weeks & 1 day)
The trouble is you will compare, its human nature. Each milestone you get to is in comparison to the previous m/s. Silly thing is that in my case Ive already got Five wonderful and healthy children that are much older.
Doctor said that 8/10 pregnancys are successful...So perhaps this time you will be ok.
Weve Not told a soul yet...only the boards on here !!! Amazing telling complete strangers but not our parents. Its only that we dont want them to have to worry, as last time I was ill witha DVT at the same time.
As for going out and buying clothes, you must do as you feel is right. Perhaps set a Week, that you will start buying.
Sending you heaps of good luck & hope all goes well and happy baby buying!
Also sending hugs and love to all that have lost a baby ((((((hugs))))))
Best Wishes
