Anyone else terrified?

Question

I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow and my first scan is 2 weeks away. I Darent let myself get excited or think too much about the baby yet as I'm terrified something is going to be wrong at the scan.

I've had quite an easy pregnancy so far with only occasional nausea and sore breasts. I just can't get it into my head that this is real. I'm hoping once I see it with my eyes I'll then be able to relax and enjoy the journey.

I'm scared to admit this to anyone close to me as I don't want them to think I'm insane...but I can't be the only one right?

Answer

I'm 10 weeks and saw my baby and heard heartbeat at 6 weeks. I know it's growing bc I look huge!!! I get to see it again this week and I can't wait!!! We are so excited! I feel like everything is ok but I'll feel much better hearing it from the dr!

Answer

Hollie, you're definitely not the only one! I have had a super easy pregnancy also. Sore boobs occasionally, bloated sometimes and some crazy dreams. Other then that I have been great. I did see baby at 7 weeks 2 days and got to hear the heart beat briefly but I wasn't told what my HCG levels were or the heart rate. Just the due date and then they set up my next appointment for 12 weeks. So, I'm in the same boat. So much can change in the next 4 weeks and we want to announce on Easter but I would hate to announce and then go for my ultrasound the next day just to find out something is wrong. But let's try to stay positive and hope for the best! Right now, we are the lucky ones. Here's to a happy healthy 9 months to us! ❤️

I am the same. Im only 6w2d thou. I google everything, every twinge (even when I know it's gas) has me on Google! I know I shouldn't but I can't help it. I'm a born worrier so this isn't out of character for me at all! X

Answer

It's hard to know what's going on inside of you and that can be scary. Try to think positive thoughts, eat well,  take your vitamins and try to exercise. There is nothing you can do beyond taking care of yourself to help ensure a healthy baby. Although the statistics are scary (10% of pregnancies end in miscarriage) it is significant to note that women who have miscarriages tend to hane more than one which drives the numbers up. Your risk is actually fairly low. Try to relax.

Answer

I'm the same way. Its almost like if you keep thinking negative if something does happen it won't hurt as much. But with pregnancy the more negative thoughts you have, the more stressed you you'll stay. You have to breath girl ☺ if your having an easy pregnancy then your lucky. I'm sure everything is fine. Good luck to you

Answer

I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow too! I've seen my baby on ultrasound once and I'll see baby again tomorrow and I still keep thinking the worst! I keep trying to push those terrible thoughts out! I know Gods got me! This baby is going to be a okay! Prayers for you and your sanity!

Answer

I'm right there with you! I finally have my first appointment tomorrow at 10w1d. I am terrified that something is wrong even though I have been feeling symptoms. We just have to stay positive that everything will be ok. Hope all you ladies have happy and healthy fall babies!

Answer

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Up until a few days ago, I have been constantly anxious! Just worrying about silly little things. Over these past few days I've been a little more relaxed about the whole situation. I find the more you worry and make yourself anxious, the slower time seems to pass!

Nausea is a good sign, even if it is just occasional! It is a sure sign of a healthy baby. Tender breasts means that your body is changing and getting ready for when you have your baby. Embrace being pregnant and although easier said than done, enjoy your pregnancy!

It's not massively enjoyable for me at this moment because my sickness is so severe! Congratulations and good luck. It's normal to worry 😊
