Anyone else nervous?

Question

I wish I could get a weekly ultrasound of my peanut. I saw him/her at 8 weeks, 4 days. I'm super nervous because my husband and I tried for nearly 2 years for this baby. I just want to know everything is okay...being high risk and all adds to the nervousness. 
Not many symptoms this week (11 weeks, 1 day today), just fatigue. I was super nauseous and exhausted from 8-10 weeks. I have an appointment next week when I am 12 weeks, 4 days. Hopefully, my OB will pull out her handy dandy pocket doppler.
I just need some reassurance today. 😔

Answer

The way I reassure myself is that once you've been in to your first ultrasound and have seen the heartbeat the risk of mc goes way down. Now from this point on where we are close to the end of the first trimester I tell myself if something were to happen I would know right away. You would be in pain and bleeding. Its not like early on when you aren't even sure if a heartbeat has developed yet. Try to trust in the process! You'll hear the heartbeat at each appointment but will likely only have one more ultrasound (possibly two if they need to check on the size later in the 3rd trimester)

Answer

You can buy a baby Doppler it’s only 59$. That’s what I did my last pregnancy because i was in the same boat as you. And let me tell you, it was the best little investment ever. It gave me such a great peace of mind!
