Pregnant again, but terrified of miscarrying again.
Honestly I was hearing talking to mothers who have been in similar situations can soothe my anxiety. Last year I found out I was pregnant on July 27th. I wasn’t with my boyfriend and was staying with my dad. My entire pregnancy I was stressed and had horrible morning sickness and the most god awful food aversions that made me lose 10 pounds. I ended up having a missed miscarriage and went to the er on the 20th of September to get help for my nausea. They couldn’t find the heartbeat I had seen two weeks before. I had a traumatizing miscarriage as they gave me meds to pass the fetus, but no pain medication and I had to get the ambulance because I was screaming in pain at like 2 in the morning and couldn’t do absolutely anything. It was horrible. I’m so so scared it’s going to happen again. I found out I’m pregnant again just over a week ago. Same month, just a little sooner this time. I’m here with my bf this time and my nausea hasn’t been as severe so soon and I definitely have food aversions but not as bad. But I have been so stressed every day and I keep crying and breaking down and I’m so scared the stress is gonna make me lose my baby. I’m so scared there’s something wrong with me and it’ll happen again. Idk what I’ll do if it happens again. I have a doc appt on September 7th to confirm the pregnancy. Originally made the appointment to discuss potential infertility after a year of trying and to see if I have endometriosis as it runs in the family, like, every woman on my moms side has it. I want to tell them how scared I am and I want to track my hcg with blood tests as much as I can because I’m so scared I’m going to lose it again and not know it. But I know since I only had one miscarriage they won’t label it high risk and I just have to hope and pray. I really don’t know how to stop thinking about it. I’m taking my prenatals and I’m doing my best but I am not getting a lot of sleep at night at all and the stress has been killing me. Can anyone offer some words of comfort maybe?
