Scared and stressed..

ChanelA

I'm trying to be so positve during this time but it's so hard. I delayed my firsg appointment because of the fear of having another horrible ultrasound experience. My first appointment is for next week and I should be 7w5d. Well I've been having horrible hip and pelvic pain and it gets worse everyday. I called and they want me to go in tomorrow. The though of it is making me sick. I'm going in on Tuesday which is their "procedure" day the same day I had my D&C in October. I'll only be 6w2 and I'm petrified of not seeing anything again.

It's like i can't win! If I cramp I'm scared if i don't I'm scared too!

Edit: half my post was gone!

((Hugs))) take some deep breaths. I agree with PP. I had my first us and they wrre abke to measure and make sure i was in track. Baby will be small but there! They will probably do another scan in a week

My hips gave me a ton of problems during first and second trimester. They "loosen" during pregnancy to make way for baby. I bought a hip brace on Amazon, it helped so, so much.

I agree with @Megdowntheshore‌ don't fret about the day you are scheduled. One thing I learned from this board is don't borrow trouble. I try and look for the positive, ie., that's awesome they can get me in so soon. I mean, it doesn't always work, but sometimes flipping my interpretation of what is going on helps.

Thank you so much for the advice... I'm trying to think positive. I am definitely going to look into a hip brace because the pain is becoming unbearable. I will update tomorrow, thanks!!

Hopefully everything tomorrow looks fantastic! There are many strange aches and pains during pregnancy. It is all part of your body making room for baby. I'll be thinking of you ((((Hugs))).

It was 20 dollars and I slept in it. Such a simple remedy

Thank you ladies, my appointment went well. I'm measuring one week ahead and was able to see and hear the heartbeat. My ultrasound tech was the same one who saw me when I had my blighted ovum. The first thing she did was tell me I see everything. I cried the whole time.

For the pain I'm doing hearing pads and purchasing a hip brace. Thank you so much for the advice!

So very happy and excited for you! I had similar pains up to about 11 weeks, so I totally understand the anxiety that follows. The mantras help me, hang in there and congrats! ((Hugs))
