Pregnant after infant loss?

Is anyone here expecting a child after the loss of an infant ? Our sweet Harper passed just last November at 3 weeks old. Currently 23 weeks with Baby #3 and couldn't be happier/paranoid/anxious/excited. I can assure you, I will hardly sleep the first year of this baby's life!

As you should be. So normal. Bless your sweet family from one mother who knows that depth of pain to another. Enjoy this pregnancy and this new bundle <3 Harper was our second daughter and something that has really helped me with this pregnancy is keeping the gender a surprise! The pregnancy has flown and I'm sure wanting to know will make labor easier. On top of that, our family just needs a truly happy surprise this year and nothing to me is more of a surprise than finding our whether you have a new son or daughter when you get to meet them for the first time <3 Good luck and Congratulations!

Me.  I lost my daughter when she was a month old last august and now I'm 10 weeks pregnant. She was my first and I'm a ball of mixed emotions.
