I took another test tonight....I’m 6 weeks pregnant and I found out over 2 weeks ago. I had a box of 50 cheap tests and I’ve probably taken 20 of them since finding out I was pregnant. Most of the time I’m able to keep my thoughts really positive but every once in a while, I read something about miscarriages and I freak out and take another test just to check. My first appointment is 2/21 and my biggest fear is that nothing will be on the ultrasound. I was nauseous all day today but didn’t vomit and my nipples have been really sore...but the intensity of the pain fluctuates - sometimes it’s really bad, sometimes not so much - and that terrifies me like something is going wrong. So here I am..almost 11pm taking a test with really diluted urine...and the test line is darker than the control line...and I’m still scared... I love glow, but I think I might need to take a break from this app because this app has made me hyper-aware of how common miscarriages really are and this anxiety I have can’t be good for my little pumpkin I’m trying to grow.

I’m so happy that this place exists for people to come for support though and if I do decide to take a break, I’m 100% sure I’ll be back!
