I have to be honest, I am 5 weeks and 1 day and I am having a hard time thinking about this pregnancy/making plans too far into the future for fear of miscarriage. I am not overwhelmed with fear, but I just keep thinking, "well this pregnancy could go away, so I don't want to get too excited". I have not had a pregnancy before, so therefore no previous miscarriage. As far as I know, my mother did not have any miscarriages. I read on this app about women who have had multiple miscarriages and I just think how that must be so difficult to be pregnant over and over again and not know if it will last. That's kind of how I feel, without having the history of miscarriage. I don't want to change my life too much or get too excited only to be disappointed. I'm proceeding very cautiously. That said, this is my first pregnancy and will be my first child and I want to enjoy it because, if this one sticks, then I'll be busy with a young child the next time I'm pregnant. I want to be giddy and confident and sure about this pregnancy, but maybe that is just naive. How do I balance the reality that miscarriage is common with letting this feel real and amazing and exciting like it is? Anyone have any thoughts?
