Anyone else paranoid?

[Fishie Kisses]

Ok, so I just got my BFP, and now I'm imagining (I hope at least) cramps. And everytime I wipe, I am expecting to see AF!

[Mommy2Austin]

My DH keeps telling me not to get my hopes up and I'm trying not to, but two tests w/ faint lines (but still lines we both saw!!!) I'm convinced. What's your due date? Mine is around Jan 8!

[Fishie Kisses]

I'm due jan 11, but I just have this feeling I am going to go early....no reason for feeling this way....I just do.

[Mommy2Austin]

I pray I do! I want a December baby :D

[sunflwrmoonbeam]

I'm feeling really confident. I had a m/c in December, and I knew it would happen. Now, I know I'll be holding my baby in January.

[paniscus]

I am paranoid!!

I still expect to see AF when I wipe. If I remember correctly - it lasted, off and on, throughout the whole pregnancy with ds. So I just try to laugh at it now. Can one really be paranoid and confident at the same time?? That is what I am!!

I haven't been to see the dr yet (have to go get a pregnancy test so they can refer me to the mw). I am scared they will do the test and it will be negative. I know it is silly but . . . .

[daysofelijah]

Oh yes, I am very paranoid. I had a m/c in the middle of the night in Oct. so every night I wake up panicked that it's happening again. I'm telling myself that when I hit 6 weeks I will be fine. 6 days to go!

[zenma]

with dd i checked the toilet paper everytime until i heard the heartbeat and could feel her moving - then i always knew she was ok.

this time i only check the tp about once a day, so i'm relaxing a little. as long as i have some symptoms i'm ok, but i woke up feeling great this morning and now i'm nervous. i'm not supposed to feel great!! :lol

[matey]

Everytime I start to feel too confident, I panic, and become worried that it will all end. I have to make it to 10 weeks to feel safe, since I m/c my last baby at around 8 or 9 weeks. I keep thinking about how far away that is.

OMG!! Hi fishiekisses! you know, this si gonna sound weird, but I had this feeling from the ONE thread we would be preggo together!!! congrats!!!

[Surfacing]

Just chiming in to say yes, I'm paranoid too, keep checking after wiping, expecting to see AF. With each passing day (and greater nausea) I feel like this one is sticky....we'll see.... Good vibes to all and lots of healthy hormones :dust

Oh I went through this and made myself a nervous wreck. It si normal to have a little cramping and some spotting
A) after an exam
B) around the time your period was due
C) at the time of implantation

My implantation spotting and cramps seemed to come AFTER the time everyone said they would. I was so worried... but sure enough---I had a big ole' chunky baby boy who is 15 months now.

:hug

My midwife taught me to light a candle every night before bed to be thankful for that day, as a way to feel calm and centered and in the moment.

Remember, your hormones are shooting around a lot, too, and that can make you feel lots of things!

[pampered_mom]

Oh yeah...definitely a tad bit paranoid here!

[sunflwrmoonbeam]

I'm starting to get that way too. I had no morning sickness yesterday, but terrible m/s on Saturday.

It comes and goes, right?

[Chavaleh]

Definitely nervous. I've never know I was pregnant this early before so I'm trying to temper my enthusiasm a bit until I'm a bit 'more' pregnant.

[Mommy2Austin]

yes it can come and go :) I actually only had two incidents of m/s last pregnancy.

I'm pretty go with the flow this time with the exception of being uber excited and anxious to have this baby here already lol!

[sunflwrmoonbeam]

I'm mostly going by intuition, instinct, and I'm fairly relaxed. But I had an early miscarriage in December, so I'm also a bit nervous.

[leafwood]

I have been checking, but not really expecting to see AF. I also swing from feeling really pregnant to feeling just fine and that gets me a bit paranoid. The fact that I could have fallen asleep at the dinner table at 6pm provides me with confidence for today :lol . I also have had the strange thought that I will go for my first visit at 8wks and they will look at me like I'm crazy and tell me I'm not pregnant. It will be nice to hear a heartbeat.

[Surfacing]

Yeah it will be great to hear that heartbeat, won't it? :throb

[BallBaby]

I was totally freaked because I had 2 mc prior to this. But, I just made it past the dates I spotted with each of the 2 mc and so i'm feeling a lot more confident. Not relaxed yet, but getting there.

So my morning sickness has all but gone away this past week, just shows up occasionally now and then and today my breasts are barely sore at all. My DH laughed at me for being freaked out by this but I can't help but wonder if maybe the two pregnancy tests that were positive were false and I'm about to start my period or maybe miscarry. I'm having a hard time being rational. It still doesn't feel real. I wish I could relax.

[sunflwrmoonbeam]

Chavaleh, I have the same thing going on. I took a test yesterday, and it was still positive.

I've noticed my symptoms seem to take their turns. Two days ago it was sore boobs and peeing all the time. Yesterday was incredible moodiness. We'll see what today brings.

(waves to Amy!)

I have the usual paranoia, but the symptoms are there so there's no doubt in my mind about this!

[tyisrrs]

I was sick as could be two days ago, and now today I feel great. I am definately paranoid that something is wrong. I hate that I had a miscarriage, it seems to have robbed the joy out of this pregnancy. I keep thinking I am headed for another miscarriage. I hated feeling sick, but it was better than this paranoia.

[elisent]

I've had period-like cramps for several days now. I'm 4 weeks 2 days. No pregnancy symptoms, either, so I'm having a hard time believing this is real.

[Mommy2Austin]

I had a horrible nightmare last night and am still remembering it now. It was terrible, and has made me terribly paranoid. GAhhh!

Girl, I have ZERO morning sickness, breasts are almost not sore at all, and I still have cramping. Still VERY positive tests, and I have a much more positive attitude too! THIS IS IT.....IT'S REAL!! :lol

[Chavaleh]

Sore boobs are back! Last night going to bed I breathed a huge sigh or relief and said to my DH, "I'm so glad they are sore again" and he looked at me like I'd flipped my lid. :lol
