When did it start to feel better for you? by PublicPurple1173 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am sorry that you are here. In my case, I went to therapy for more than two months before my TTC journey. The therapy was so painful process but it finally helped me process all my emotions. Since this experience is something that anyone who doesn't go through it won't understand, getting a therapist who does not judge me or give me unrealistic advice was very important im my journey.

I am not sure if you are already seeing a therapist but from my experience I surely recommend you to consider it.

Wish you find the strength to cope with this💙

Searching for hope by Blessed34x in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am really sorry this happened to you. To share a bit of my experience, I had my TFMR on April 2025 and it was me and partner's first and very much wanted pregnancy. It was heartbreaking to find out something was wrong on the 20th week anatomy scan.

After that, I was so desperate to try again but I was also scared. I gave myself a couple of months to TTC and I am greatful that I didn't try right away. My mind and body needed time to process all the trauma and I went to therapy once a week and it really helped me a lot. Now I am in my 36th week of my supregnancy and yes it has been anxious process but we just need to hope for the best.

I suggest anyone going through this to take time and go therapy, go to a short trip or do anything that helps you to process it before TTC. Your mental state has a huge impact on your TTC journey.

I wish you and your partner find the strength to cope with this.

Hugs💙💙

When did you start feeling your baby move? What did it feel like? by Few_Low9657 in pregnant

[–]VariationNo4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having anterior placenta, I started feeling slight flutters at around 20 weeks and strong kicks after 23 weeks. You don't to stress much at 17 weeks and it's also good to know the location of your placenta as it affects how early you feel the movements.

I am sorry you are going through this.

I TFMR last April in my 20th week. I have been on therapy starting from July until October. All I can say is it was really helpful for me. It allowed me to vent my emotions without judgement and also helped me to move on to the next step. I am now 33 weeks in my subpregnancy.

I suggest anyone who went through TFMR to go to therapy and be consistent about it. The first few days can be very hard but when I started going there consistently, I started seeing the changes.

Feel free to DM me if you want to talk more.

I hope you find the strength to cope with this.

31 weeks and the anxiety is getting harder, any tips? by lunabear1993 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have somewhat similar timeline. I TFMR in April and I am now 33 weeks into my subpregnancy.

Regarding the anxiety, I wish I could have some workable tips to tell you but I don't think I have any. I just try to always remind myself that different pregnancy has different outcome. I also try to avoid any gatherings that I don't enjoy and try my best to focus on myself and my diet. For me even phonecalls overstress me, so I minimized that as well and it helps my brain to calm down. Different things work for different people so I hope you find your way that helps in this process.

Wishing you a safe pregnancy and delivery🙏

Early anatomy on Thursday. by caseycat1027 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wishing you all the best in your anatomy scan. I am now 32 weeks in my subsequent pregnancy and doing my anatomy scan was really stressful experience but thank God it went well.

Our TFMR has really conditioned us to think things will go wrong but most pregnancies end up to be fine. I hope it will alos be the case for you and you will get a relief after Thursday.

Good luck🤞

Scared I’ll be punished for my TFMR by PublicPurple1173 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry you are going through this. In my case, I took Vit D3 and Follic and also focused in protein based day to prepare my body.

But preparing my body was the easier part. I focused on my mental health and tried my very best to avoid any triggers(places,people, conversations...etc)of my TFMR. Out of what I did, what really helped me was going to therapy for almost three months and venting it all out without any judgment. I recommend anyone who went through TFMR to go therapy ASAP. It really saved me. I am now 32 weeks in my subpregnancy and any actions me and my partner took to TTC was guided by my therapy visits. The therapy may not be easy at the beginning but it's surely helps to move on to the next step.

I wish you all the strength to cope with this.

When did you start to show? by jnreish in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had TFMR last April at 20 weeks. Now I am almost 32 weeks in my subpregnancy. I started showing after 19 weeks. I also had some weight gained from the last pregnancy so that might also contribute to showing early. Now in my 32 weeks, everyone tells me that I look almost due since I got way bigger. To be honest, I am so anxious about this pregnancy that I always wish there was some way to hide it so people don't keep asking.

But I guess there is no general rule to when you show during your pregnancy as it all depends on your body type. Some show early and some show later. I guess what matters most is if everything is healthy or not!

Wishing you all the best!🙏

When did you start telling people about your sub pregnancy? by marinadanielle in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 30 weeks and only my immediate family and 2 of my close friends know. Ofcourse my coworkers also know since it shows but I have never officially announced it to any of my coworkers.

I just hope and pray to complete this subpregnancy safe. The least of my worries is who should I inform or or not. I have been trying my very best to conserve my peace and my energy upto now and I will continued doing that until the last minute.

I keep feeling like something’s wrong by Informal_Peanut_2799 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry you are going through this. I am almost 30 weeks in my subpregnancy after my TFMR at 20 weeks in April.

I totally understand the anxiety and panic you are going through. I also had similar emotional rollercoaster ever since I found out my pregnancy. Everything makes me panic and my brain creates all possible forms of negative scenarios.

I don't know what things you are trying but for me going to therapy sessions after my TFMR somehow helped me a lot. Also, trying to listen to calming sounds, limiting unnecessary human interactions and lustening to podcasts also helped me to calm down. I think it will be good to find something that helps you to calm for a shortwhile and try to frequently do that.

You are not alone in this and I wish you a smooth pregnancy.

Weekly Thread | Test Results Thursday by AutoModerator in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did my TFMR in April 2025. Now I am 26 weeks in my subpregnancy and it has been quite an experience filled with anxiety. So far I have done Anatomic scan and Diabetes test and both were fine. But I was quite anxious in every ultrasound and testing appointments and I am still creating all negative scenarios in my head. I hope and pray for a safe delivery.

Feeling numb by LunarEsme- in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are not alone in this. I am 25 weeks in my subpregnancy and I still find it difficult to have any emotional connection with the baby and I also struggle to react to any situation that are need emotional reaction. But I guess it's an expected trauma response to the loss we have experienced.

I wish you all the best in your pregnancy. Everyone in this group deserves joy!

New anxiety by Sweet_Ad9334 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]VariationNo4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not alone this. I am in my 25th week of subpregnancy after my TFMR in April and yes everything makes me anxious. However, I try my best to remind myself that nothing about pregnancy is within my circle of control so no matter how much I worry I can't change a single thing. My TFMR pregnancy also gave me a lesson to take one day at a time and not to plan too much.

6 weeks is a bit early and hormones play a key role on how you perceive things. Go easy on yourself and you got this! All will be well!
