For a lot of folks, especially really early in the pregnancy or with high risk pregnancy, there is still a high chance of miscarriage, complications, etc that cause sudden loss of the pregnancy.
To help with the trauma of it all, a lot of folks try to not become too attached until they know they're past the high risk stages.
For some folks trying for a baby is a repeat hell of several years of nothing working and then miscarriage when it does work.
