How do you relax?

Question

I had a miscarriage last year and this is my rainbow baby! But I still find myself thinking the worst at times...currently I’m worried that the baby will have something wrong...how do you just relax and enjoy your pregnancy???

Answer

I set tiny goals for myself in pregnancy. When I reach then I celebrate them. 1st ultrasound. 2nd ultrasound (high risk so I get one at 6 weeks and 1 at 8 weeks) 2nd trimester. 20 weeks. 24 weeks (Yay viability!!!) 28 weeks. 32 weeks. 35 weeks. Term. I'll celebrate by getting myself of baby something special. Eating a special meal or dessert. A cute maternity outfit I really want but didn't want to spend the money on. Mani/pedi. Hair cut & color. Also I suggest you take way to many pictures. I did both weekly and monthly pictures. It's one of those things you don't realize you might want until it's over. I have bump picture boxes I make once baby is born and I put little notes in them like what I craved. Or special events going on. It's ok to be scared and nervous. It's ok to grieve the baby/babies you have lost. But it's also ok to let yourself enjoy this pregnancies and these moments. It's not always easy. 💖 Congratulations!
