Help! Fear is controlling my pregnancy...

How can I stop letting fear control my pregnancy? Ever since I found out I was pregnant (2 weeks ago) I have had a build up of anxious thoughts. I am so consumed by all the fears I have about what could be wrong, that I feel like I’m not taking any time to be as excited as I want to be/should be. All I want is a happy healthy baby!

I’m currently 5 weeks 6 days and I’m just sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for my first doctors appointment (at 8 weeks). I thought the tww was hard when ttc, BOY was I wrong.

How can I ease my mind?

(Disclaimer I do have general anxiety disorder and I recognize that this is playing a huge part)
