Is it common for first time mothers to constantly feel like something might be wrong in their early pregnancy? I just find myself always worried about something terrible happening or going to an appointment and getting bad news. I’m a relatively healthy person for the most part I’d say, but the thoughts keep crossing my mind.

Im so cautious about literally everything I do. The other day my husband exhaled his thc vape pen right next to me, and I inhaled the smoke for about 3 seconds and immediately started hyperventilating because I thought it’d harm me or the fetus. I just wanna enjoy my pregnancy and not to have to worry about everything, and I’m trying, but it’s so hard to do.

Lately, I’ve been having these mild cramps that come and go on one side of my belly, that keep making me worry, and i’ve been having no other symptoms other than sore nipples, and I keep feeling concerned because I thought i’d be experiencing more symptoms.

What symptoms did you feel at 5 weeks? Am I overthinking it too much right now?
