Am I the only one?

Question

It's taken us quite a while to conceive, but I'm 4w 2d pregnant with our first. I can't help but be terrified I'm going to lose the baby or something since it's so early on! Anyone else having this problem? My SO says I'm being negative, but it's more of feeling scared than anything!

We're also going to Disney next week (I know crazy timing!) so I'm super scared to fly, even though my doctor said it was perfectly fine. I wish I knew how to calm my nerves!

Answer

I can't recommend the book Expecting Better enough. It was amazing and help calm almost all my fears. About the flight: the issue is radiation, and you'd have to take four of the longest flights available to get near the problem area. Only those who work on a plane have to worry! You'll be fine and have a great time!

Answer

I was freaking out about miscarriage until I was about 20 weeks. Everyday it would cross my mind, I'd count down the days until the next appointment jus to make sure baby is okay and everything is well. 
My boyfriend was worried to and he made sure I was doing everything I could to be healthy, safe, and rested jus to make sure baby was healthy. 
It's hard telling someone not to worry about it when I did and people saying don't worry only helped so much.. jus try and hang in there, do what you gotta do to stay healthy. Try being as positive as you can even though it's really hard! I wish you the best!!

Answer

Thanks everyone! I know I shouldn't worry, but I can't help it when it's something I want so bad! I just took another test & it was like barely positive. I hope everything will be okay

Answer

Don't be scared, I was scared until I was told by the dr that my pregnancy was fine, have strength you'll need it as you baby grows stay positive and don't stress the small things if your dr says it's okay your safe, remember your not the only pregnant lady they've ever dealt with, hope this helps :)

Answer

Its normal to feel scared. I lost our 1st baby in January after ttc for almost two years, and in april we found out we were expecting again we feel truly blessed. I cant help but feel anxious and scared what i do that helos is deep breathing and pay really close attention to my body anything that doesn't feel right i call my Doctors office. They are there for you fir whatever you need. You can do the same. Anything that feels wrong or not normal just give your O.B a call.

Answer

I'm 32 weeks today and I STILL worry something bad will happen and I STILL ask myself "is there really a baby in there?" 
Just keep pressing on, distract yourself, and embrace life! 😊
