Trying to just get through the next few weeks

Lauren

I am 5/6 weeks, have my viability scan next Thursday. Trying to come to terms with the fact that this is all out of my control, and that I WILL eventually be beyond this point. I had a late loss (22 weeks) and I didn’t realize how anxious I would be early on (I figured I would get crazy closer to then).

I know the odds are in my favor. I’m 31, I don’t drink or smoke, I’ve been taking prenatals and folic acid since my last pregnancy, and my loss was due to a viral infection which means I’m not even considered high risk this time. I know every day that goes by increases the odds of coming home with a healthy baby.

I just want to fast forward. My OB told me if she could put me in a medically induced coma for the next 7.5 months she would! Lol
