Will I ever stop freaking out??

adorsey2000

I have had three ultrasounds (6w, 8w and 10w) all showing a perfectly healthy baby with a perfect heartbeat but I still feel like I freak out everyday!  Every twinge or abdominal pain I get makes me think its the end.  Today I kept running to the bathroom b/c I felt like I was bleeding (it was actually just CM - sorry for TMI).  We have our NT scan next week, which will make me feel better for a few days but then I feel like I will go right back to freaking out again.  When will the insanity stop?!

Hate to tell you, but I still have my "freak out" moments every now and then. I think until we have our LO's in our arms, we'll always be on edge.

I agree with Babs.  I still freakout.  I just freak out less often.  But maybe once a week I'll have a moment where I have to calm myself and have faith in God.

I feel the same way

Yep... I agree too... The fear hasn't gone away for me yet. And I'm starting to think it won't until a healthy baby is delivered and placed in my arms. But on the bright side... you're not alone. Hopefully it'll feel better to know that many of us are feeling the exact same way you are.     Hang in there!

I don't think I'll ever not worry about this baby, but I've been good about not freaking out. I do, however, feel a huge relief now that I am in the second tri. I'm sure your baby is doing great. Good luck at the NT scan!

I still freak out.  I don't think I'll ever be able not to.  I kept thinking I'd feel better after each milestone, but I still freak out sometimes.

I'm still freaking out... I'm sorry, it's just the way it is.  I think I will freak out until he's in my arms safe and sound.

Hang in there!!!

I know I'm not that far along, but my DH and I have decided to rent a dopler for those months before you can feel movement to help calm my nerves inbetween appointments.

I'm so sorry that you feel that way- that must suck up so much energy- but I think it's definitely very normal, unfortunately, after a loss. It's sad, I wonder for me, have my prior losses taken away my ability to get excited bc I'll be worrying all the time?

I am right there with you...and I hate it! I am always scared that something will go wrong, or did go wrong--I check the toilet paper every time, check my boobs to make sure they are still sore, etc. It stinks to be this way and not just be able to relax and not be so scared this one thing I want so badly in life will be ripped away. I know exactly how you feel. I just keep praying and remembering that it's in God's hands.
