Ack! The anxiety!

Kasey

In my early 20s, I miscarried 2 pregnancies before carrying my son to term. I'm now pregnant again (for the first time since giving birth to my son about 11 years ago). Even though my last pregnancy was successful and I've made it to week 11 without any complications, I'm still a decade older and 30lbs heavier now than I was when I was last pregnant... and I'm constantly worrying. I had an ultrasound at 8w3d that showed baby measuring on track with a great heart rate of 161, but I'm still all in my head about it.

We are planning on telling our families next weekend, so I've booked a private sneak peek ultrasound tomorrow. I think I'll feel a lot better telling people if I can see a wiggly baby with a strong heartbeat again. I'm not sure I'll get another u/s at the doctor's office before my 20wk anatomy scan and I don't think my nerves can handle waiting 2 more months.

Anyone else as nervous as I am??
