I guess I've been waiting so long for this and now that it's finally here, I think that it's too good to be true

Answer 1

I think every pregnant mom worries about something happening to their baby whether unborn or born. You are perfectly normal. Just remember to take a few breaths and relax, maybe try to meditate. You are fine especially since you are not experiencing any symptoms of miscarriage. Don't worry about worrying, we all do it. Once you see the dr. it will help calm your nerves. Trust me you will be happy and be able to rejoice, just allowed yourself to get through the scary parts of pregnancy. There are a few more scary parts but always remember you will be ok.

I wish you the best of luck congratulations on receiving the most beautiful gift in the world

Answer 2

omg, trust me you are not alone at all! Even though I had no cramping/ bleeding, etc. i was CERTAIN I was one of the ones with a missed miscarriage (even though it is extremely rare). But again as long as you don't have bleeding/cramping you are most likely just fine. It will put you at ease once you hear the heartbeat (around 8-10 weeks). And also once you pass the magical 12th week your risk goes way down. I waited until I was 4 months to tell alot of people of the pregnancy- because I was so nervous about something bad happening. Just take the best care possible of yourself (right foods, prenatal vitamin, no heavy lifting, etc) and that way you know you are doing everything humanly possible. Take comfort in knowing that.

Answer 3

wow. im 5 weeks also and i cant stop thinking the same either. This is also my first pregnancy.The whole time I would say when i get a postive test I would be so happy and feel at ease. But everyday I think of miscarriage. I don't know why! I wont even tell my close friends im pregnant yet! Only my parents, boyfriend, and sisters know! I have a trans l ultrasound on the 25th but my nerves are me until then. If u need someone to talk to please feel free to email me. I feel alot better knowing im not the only one thinking these thoughts. Congrats on your pregnancy!

Answer 4

this is extremely widely used. My hubby and that i've got been attempting for 6 years to get pregnant. i found out interior the start of Nov i exchange into pregnant. I took 3 hpt try (2 that have been +- for helpful and one that exchange into = -) 7 days in the previous my neglected era. :) After the urine try on the docs place of work my hubby exchange into confident, even though it took me a blood try to the ultrasound to be confident. i exchange into afraid that with the blood try i will have had a pretend helpful and that i wasn't truly pregnant (the failings a pregnant women human beings think of) and so i did no longer choose to be devastated if that exchange into the case. So while the ultrasound confirmed the newborn and the pulse, i exchange into excited and relieved. The cramps (minor just about era like) are very widely used up till around 12 weeks and then are replaced by cramps (somewhat diverse than the 1st 12 weeks) as a results of fact of ligament stretching. The cramps interior the 1st 12 weeks are often due on your uterus enlarging. If there is blood or something, i might call your health care professional. additionally, comprehend that troubling with your first or final pregnancies are widely used. this is my first to boot, and however i'm no longer as nerve-racking as a results of fact the 1st trimester, I nonetheless hassle that some thing would desire to ensue. as long as your health care professional isn't nerve-racking then you somewhat are ok. Congratulations on your being pregnant and comprehend that the crampy feeling is widely used.

Answer 5

I'm 6 weeks and feel the same way. It's so hard to think that after you've spread the news and gotten so excited, it could just end. I think after you go to the doctor, you'll feel better...I did. He did an ultrasound and I was able to see the sack and a dot (baby), which I'm guessing it tells me it's not ectopic. Then you'll have a new set of worries after that.

Miscarriage wise, I guess it's just a waiting game. All we can do is try to take our minds off it. I wish you the best!

Answer 6

I feel the same exact way and I am about 5 weeks too. I think it is natural to be concerned. I mean it isnt like we can feel the baby just the effects of the pregnancy.Plus the fact that all of the books talk about it around this time. Just try not to stress about. Im sure eveything will be fine. When I think about it I just reassure myself by thinking about when I have my baby. Good Luck

Answer 7

I did the same thing. I was always afraid that my pregnancy would not make it to term. But, most pregnancies make it. Every pain, or ache I would worry.

I know, I have one 2 year old, and am currently 23 weeks pregnant with my second.

Do your best to take it easy. If something is going to happen, there isn't much you can do. But, keep a positive attitude that nothing is going to happen.

Answer 8

it's normal to feel that way, you start thinking of all the negative things that might happen. As long as you take good care of yourself and your growing baby, you should have a normal pregnancy. Those types of pregnancies don't happen too often so try to take a breath and relax and think about all the joy your going to have once the baby does arrive. Good Luck and Congrats!!!

Answer 9

i was the same at thebeginin its mainly cause u hear bout things like that and u really dont want it 2 happen just try and not think bout it then everything should be good not all pregnancy end up in miscarriages instead of thinkin of what it wil be like when he or she is born and focus on names for both so when u find out u can name her or him instead of leaving it till last minute
34weeks on monday with a boy and this is my first pregnancy

Answer 10

Stressin out about it could only give your body more of a reason to terminate your pregnancy!! You have no reason to worry, unless youre experincing heavy bleeding and bad cramps. Other than that you have no reason to be happy, I understand what yorue syaing tho, at the beginning of my pregnancy i had wished I had an ultrasound machiene so I could watch mine every day. You really have no reason to worry tho until your body gives you a reason to worry! Just relax and take care of yourself! Congrats on your pregnancy!!
