Been trying ttc for 2 months so far for #2 and I'm starting to freak myself out..

Lately all I've been seeing is posts about miscarriages, a coue of my friends at work had recently had miscarriages also, and I honestly don't know if I've ever had one because this is the first time that we're actually trying..the first one was just a fluke. But I'm wanting to test if I miss a period or get early ones, and at the same time not wanting to test too early because I don't want to know if I have a miscarriage or not. What do I do? :( (Also, I'm a hypochondriac, but still..)
