My wife's first ultrasound for this pregnancy is next Tuesday. I feel so
nervous as if I have never done it before with her; hope that my baby is
healthy. I do not even know what to think, it is so exciting. Cannot wait to
see my child. Although, I have my worries. What if something goes wrong? It
will be already 8 weeks then.
@stacemom and @bumphi First, this post is soooooo old. We don't resurrect old posts here with new statements, hence the mention by SEVERAL people now that this is a zombie thread. Please stop. Second, it must be a wonderful thing to see that new baby on the ultrasound and everything, but PLEASE keep in mind that that is not everyone's experience. I went to my first ultrasound expecting to see that heartbeat and baby and was super excited, and I got the worst news of my entire life. Thus, "seeing my baby released" was not relaxing in any way, shape, or form. It was true and utter terror, pain, heartache, and world-shattering.
That sounds like my biggest fear. I am so anxious our first ultrasound is May 20th. We are worried to find out how it is going. I think the anxiety is high due to the lack of appointments between and a 2 1/2 week wait.

There is nothing that can be done hence the "lack of appointments." The ONLY reason I got an early ultrasound was because I was on medication that I came off of and they needed to do a dating ultrasound. Otherwise I would not have gotten one until the anatomy scan.
You are blessed if you do not need more appointments in-between. I know someone w/ a serious health issue with baby and is in and out of appointments on a weekly basis. And she is only 20 weeks along.

Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see. Hebrews 11:1

> Yeah, but seeing the baby released is so relaxing...
and suddenly he/she is your everything.
There is no better feeling in the world than holding your precious child.
