I am trying to chalk it up to paranoia... my gut feeling is telling me things are not right. I am a chronic worrier (because of my history). With my last pregnancy, we were on the way to the first U/S and I told DH I didn't have a good feeling. Lo and behold, an hour later they were telling us the pregnancy was not viable.

I am trying not to freak.. I have no bleeding or change in symptoms. Just a sinking feeling.

I am sorry you are so worried.

I also have a hard time thinking everything will be okay. Even though we have had 2 u/s at 6 and 9 weeks, I still worry daily since there is no way of telling if everything is still going well.

I hope you can find some peace and your pregnancy is healthy...

I agree with Bellybean. Especially since I've recently announced it to the world, I feel as though I've jinxed myself or something. And that the spotting will start up again and...you know. And today I had a tinge of brown on the toliet paper so that didn't really help.

Oh, Kerri

Are you able to find out anything soon?

i had a loss at 10 weeks before my baby arrived and my whole pregnancy i felt as though i was holding my breath. i thought for sure i would see blood on the tp everytime i peed.. the whole 9 months was a panic filled stress party and i hated it and couldn't enjoy my pregnancy like i should have.

try to put all your bad feelings aside, mama. you deserve to have a happy pregnancy. i know our gut feelings are so very important and we should listen to them.. but i learned i need to have faith in my body, and i will next go round. try to do it now so you have no regrets.

thinking positive does wonders. good luck

: Sending lots of good vibes your way mama!

I am right there feeling the same thing. Especially since my all day m/s is gone. I try to reassure myself with the fact that we have a heartbeat but I have the same sinking feeling. I am anxious for Tuesday when we will get an u/s for reassurance.

Hang in there and I will be praying for us all!

 

[notjustmamie]

I am similarly confused by what may be a insight on my body and what is just anxiety from the past. I pray that your sinking feeling is just a worry and all is well with you and your babe!

Hoping all is well with this LO.

Yes, a lot is attributable to one's history. Before my first u/s at 6 weeks, I almost had what I called a panic attack. I was a bit relived after seeing a heartbeat, but worried when they said to confirm viability, I had to have a followup in 2 weeks. At 8 weeks, my LO had grown a lot and everything looked fine. I now have the NT scan scheduled for next week, and I'm starting to get a bit nervous all over again.

Try to think positive thoughts. I know I try to do the same.

Wishing you the best.

thinking of u and waiting to hear the GOOD news be positive its all we have sometimes

 

[Shanti_Mom]

I can totally relate! Although I've had just one m/c (blighted ovum), I'm growing with this one and still have some symptoms (though very mild), I am also paranoid that something has gone wrong and I just don't know it yet. I won't be going in to try to hear the heartbeat until another week from now. My u/s won't be until 20 weeks. Honestly, I don't think I'll totally relax until have a babe in arms!

If it makes you feel any better I had that vague feeling of unease when I was pregnant with Isla and so far it hasn't come to anything (she is now 2). I think I was about 85% convinced that I would never hold a live baby but it never turned into anything. Which isn't to say your feeling isn't anything but it turned out mine wasn't.

Just keep thinking positively. We are all here cheering for you and your little baby

 

[mamatolevi]

take this from someone who lost 7... worrying is praying for what you don't want.

I remind myself of that quite a bit, doesn't always help but sometimes allows me to put aside the worry for a bit and think of things other than being pregnant.

That is not to say that the little voice telling us something is always wrong, just that there are times to listen to it and times to tell it to quiet down.

I hope all is well for you.
