How to deal with waiting for ultrasound?

Jenn

Hi everyone,

I am 8 weeks 2 days. I won’t have an ultrasound until 11 weeks. I tried to get an abdominal the other day but I have a retroverted uterus so they couldn’t see anything. I am dealing with a lot of anxiety not knowing everything is ok. My symptoms have been pretty minimal, except for bloating, some fatigue, sore breasts and some food aversions (mostly being a picky eater and not wanting to eat anything cooked at home).

I’m struggling between wanting peace of mind and waiting until my providers recommended scan.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on how to cope? I wasn’t prepared for how difficult this part of pregnancy is!
