Hi there. I am currently 13 weeks pregnant, but almost everyday, i worry that my baby is going to be stillborn, miscarried, or something is going to be wrong with it. i already had a sonogram and i saw the baby and heard the heartbeat, but for some reason all these worries come to my head. I am worried that my baby will die basically. Whats wrong with me? Has anyone else ever felt this way???? Any help would be great.

Congratulations. I too am pregnant, about 17 weeks along and I feel the same concerns. I think this comes from not being able to feel the baby move yet. When you get to about 20 weeks, or sometimes even sooner, you will feel the baby move and that will put your mind at ease. If you have any concerns talk to your OB-GYN. Normally they try to hear the baby's heartbeat at every prenatal visit and that sometimes helps reduce the stress. Just take it easy and take care of yourself. Remember to try not to stress too much, the baby feels it when you are worried. Enjoy your pregnancy and Good Luck!

These feelings are normal. your body and mind will go through a lot of things that you can not really avoid. The best thing to do is relax and enjoy the pregnancy. It is supposed to be a beautiful time. Stress will only make it harder on you and the growing baby. Take it easy and one day at a time. You have a lot bigger things to worry about! Like decorating a nursery for the baby! :-)

Is this your first pregnancy. I was the same way when i was pregnant with my son. I remember being so nervous for the first doctors app. thinkin that they would tell me i wasnt really pregnant or that my baby didnt have a heartbeat. I worried all throughout my pregnancy, i worried so much that my blood pressure got up and i had to be put on medicine. Just relax and take it day by day. Im sure your baby is fine and so are you.

Stop worrying! Everyone worries a little, but don't stress over losing your baby or having something be wrong. Just relax, because the more you worry the more you are putting stress on your baby. Try to focus on happy thoughts, it sounds silly, I know. Think about names, how you are going to decorate, all the things you are going to need. Be as positive as you can and you'll have positive results. Best of luck to you.

I did. After my miscarriage, I basically thought my other babies were go to die too. They put me on meds and had me talk to someone to try and get some of my pain off my chest. It helped with my last pregnancy, but this time around the fear is back and I cry alot thing that this little baby will die too. I pray it don't, but I have no control over that. Talk to your doctor and see what they think. I wish you all the luck in the world and hope all goes well with you.

It's natural to worry about your baby. You will worry about him or her for the rest of your life - it's part of what being a mother is! I worry about mine all the time. But you just have to think positive. There is no reason to think you won't have a very healthy baby. Try to enjoy being pregnant.

Welcome to the club....we all worry...and it doesn't go away. Just try to bombard yourself with the good thoughts of a healthy baby when you feel these worries getting the better of you. Key is to not let it get to you so bad that you get sick. That is more damaging to you and the fetus.
