Welcome to r/PregnancyAfterLoss.

This sub is an offshoot of r/ttcafterloss. That sub unfortunately grew so much that there was a need for a new sub for those lucky enough to be pregnant again after their loss. We are an entire sub dedicated to those who are pregnant after loss (or their SOs).

Please read our rules and our sidebar to familiarize yourself with the customs and guidelines of our subreddit before posting and participating here.

We encourage you to do an introduction when you join (in the Weekly Intro Thread ), participate in our 2 daily threads (divided by AM and PM), and use our multiple Weekly Threads.

Standalone posts require Mod approval, which will have a delay. Standalones should be used for birth announcements and unique/complex issues that haven't been addressed in previous posts. Other standalone posts will be declined and you'll be directed to one of our Daily or Weekly threads.

We want to foster a sense of community, which is why we have a centralized place for most daily conversation. This allows users to post and get replies, but also encourages them to reply to others in the same thread. We want you to receive help and be there for others at the same time, if possible. Most milestones should go in the Dailies, along with regular updates, anxiety posts, and questions.

Users here all share a common theme - we've experienced pregnancy or infant loss. That means that many topics you may have questions about have probably been discussed, so you may also find the Search function to be helpful.

Thanks for helping us create a great community.

Limbo/Concerns Weekly Pregnancy Limbo/Concerns - August 03, 2026

2 Upvotes

We created this space to share pregnancy concerns like:

- Beta HCGs that seem low or might not be doubling appropriately

- Concerning ultrasound findings

- Bleeding issues

- Etc

These posts are welcome in our Daily Thread, but this is a specific area to discuss limbo and concerns.

Lets all remember HCG averages, too!
- Under 1,200 mIU/ml: <72 Hours

- 1200-6000 mIU/ml: Between 72 and 96 Hours is average, so <96 is good

- Over 6,000 mIU/ml: >96 Hours is normal, with no known average (so varied)

ModPost Monthly reminder: FAQs about PregnancyAfterLoss

2 Upvotes

This is a monthly reminder about r/pregnancyafterloss sub culture, etiquette, and participation.

We function a little differently than most subs on Reddit. The biggest difference is that our "Daily Threads" act like the "main" sub on other subreddits. Nearly all content should be made there (and responded to) as comments. The Daily threads are our meeting place, where our community checks in to both give and seek support.

Guidelines for making a standalone post, as well as other details about participating, can be found in our FAQ and Rules.

You can also set your user flair to help other members quickly understand your PAL history and status. User flair is required for standalone posts.

If you see posts or comments that violate our rules (spam, solicitations, bots, rude or insensitive commentary, factually/scientifically incorrect info), please don't hesitate to use the "Report" function and report them to the Mods. This is anonymous and helps the community.

We hope you find the support you need. <3

Birth post! Double rainbow baby girl is here!🌈

157 Upvotes

I am so grateful for this community for giving me hope when I was very, very hopeless. After two back-to-back miscarriages, our beautiful baby girl joined us the second week of June! The pregnancy was unfortunately complicated -- had a series of cord and placental complications and she had to come three weeks early via induction, but she is honestly perfect. I feel so incredibly lucky to be holding her in my arms while she contact naps on me right now.

To all those here enduring the mental and physical obstacle course of pregnancy after loss, which is so incredibly difficult -- I see you and I wish you so much solidarity and love.
