Is anyone else worrying like me?

Question

Hi there,

This is going to sound ridiculous but I've just found out I'm pregnant and both me and my other half are thrilled. The only thing is I am panicking like crazy that something will go wrong and I dread going to the toilet in case I see that I'm bleeding or something. Is anyone else as worried as me?

It's my first pregnancy and I don't know how it's supposed to feel. I keep getting period type pains and I was due to have my period this weekend. Argh! I'm so worried!

Answer

It is 100% normal! I was a worry wart! I just thought about it the other day how I had found out and almost immediately starting thinking oh no- is that a miscarriage cramp? Oh no is normal is that normal??! Agh. Do not worry missy your baby will be fine. Just deep breaths and remember your body can protect the baby.

Answer

Oh felt like I'm reading my own post. I'm same like you. Yesterday I got BFP , tested three times lol. Again today I'm so scared that what if something is wrong so tested today too. Of course it was positive again. I'm also having pain like how I used to get in periods so it worries me a lot. Doc appointment is on June 6th. Fingers crossed until then. Not sure how I'm gonna go through this.

I'm also a FTM and I worried like crazy since I found out at 3w2d! You read all the horror stories and bad things that can happen. I went days without sleep and barely ate. I finally realized that I'm taking care of myself and no amount of worrying will prevent anything bad from happening. Try and relax and enjoy this brief and special time! Congrats!

Answer

Oh I think it's completely normal to worry. I'm worrying even more now because our first was a miscarriage and i'm pregnant again. I'm just trying to take really good care of myself. Not overdo it. Rest. Exercise. Eat healthy. Stay positive and pray... A lot! Good luck! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Answer

It's normal, I think it's part of just being a mom now! 
First I worried about miscarriage And making it to second trimester. Then I worried about his movements, everything being normal with tests, eating right to make sure he was getting nutrients for healthy growth and making it to "viability". Now I worry about his weight gain and movements constantly, not trying to go into labor early and basically everything you can imagine.

I'm sure once he's here I'll worry about SIDS, him being safe and healthy and lord knows probably worrying about if the polar ice caps will melt and drown him 😂
