Missy - I totally understand how you feel about the next bfp. I HATE that my blissful ignorance has been taken from me. After 2 miscarriages, I don't know how I'll feel next time. I know I can't help but be excited, but it will be very guarded. In some ways I think this mc was harder than the first. The first time you kinda think it's just bad luck. This time I was so convinced that would not happen to me again - then it did. I really started to question things.
I will be excited next bfp, but I will also be terrified. I have decided (though not sure I'll succeed) to not let it consume my life. I have to go on living, while caring for myself and the baby, but can't let it consume me. That's what hurts the most. So, until I am holding a baby in my arms, I can't let myself get excited. And I hate that I feel that way.
