I’m 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant. My husband is over the moon excited. We’re telling his family this weekend for Mother’s Day since we’re close and we would like their support if something happened. This is our second baby, we have a 2 year old daughter. But I am having an internal battle with myself. I’m not letting myself get excited about this baby and I don’t know why. I want to get through my first scan before I really relish in being pregnant. I’m terrified that if I get excited now, something bad will happen or we’ll get bad news at the scan. I tell my husband these things and he says that I have no reason to feel this way, there are no signs that anything is wrong. But I can’t help it. Our friends had a missed miscarriage last year. They found out at their 8 week scan that the baby stopped growing at 6 weeks, and for some reason that is sticking in my mind. I had my first ob appointment the other day to confirm pregnancy and also a pelvic exam and the dr said everything looked great. I still have some symptoms even though they’ve kinda chilled out the past couple of days so I’m freaking out about that. I want this baby so bad but I’m scared that as soon as I acknowledge it and get excited about being pregnant, my world will crumble. Just needed to vent. ❤️
