Trying to get pregnant is fun....actually being pregnant is kind of terrifying
Am I alone in this? I spent so much time trying to get pregnant and yet I still feel totally unprepared. I am 100% a type A personality. So I read everything possible on how I could get pregnant faster. I think I spent most of my time researching that and truly believing it would never happen than I did thinking about what to do when it does actually happen.
Don't get me wrong I am beyond ecstatic that I finally got pregnant. However, my husband and I went out to dinner the night I got my yes on the stick and I had no clue what to order at the restaurant. I was craving the goat cheese flatbread but remembered that soft cheeses are not recommended. So then I saw there was lobster, seafood and fish high in mercury are also a no no.
I can't complain because I actually feel really good! Almost too good. I don't feel pregnant which worries me. I have had so many friends who have had complications in their pregnancy and I can't help but worry that this will be me. I don't have any pregnancy symptoms so I must not be pregnant right? Or something must be wrong. So I have been taking about two pregnancy tests per day to make sure I'm still pregnant. Anyone else with me on these worries? I know that once I have my doctors appointment and start showing this anxiety will decrease. But I still have a few weeks to go until this is the case.
Any advice or similar feelings on this matter is appreciated. I know I am not alone in this journey so that is why I am reaching out.
