Anyone have this feeling...

Ok, so this is my first time for the whole baby craze stuff...Problem is I keep feeling like it isn't real. I  mean, how is there really something sooo tiny growing in my belly? Anyone feel like they are going to wake up and it will all be gone? Is anyone worried about that. The whole thing just seems like a dream.

Re: Anyone have this feeling...

  • Yes. I definitely feel like that.  I just can't wait for my appointment next week, hopefully I will get an ultrasound and hear the heartbeat.

  • I completely understand. They say you will continue to feel that way until you look pregnant and can feel the baby kick and stuff. Just keep you mind positive. Worrying won't do ya any good.

  • I get that feeling. Mostly because this being my 4th pregnancy, it's just a backend fear of mine. That I'll wake up and it'll be over. I don't want it to be over. And I can't wait to start feeling something inside of me. I find it easier to truly connect after an u/s and when you start to see your belly growing outward.

  • Completely. I struggled with infertility so the fact that I'm finally pregnant after a year and a half of really trying with infertility treatment is mind boggling. I am also SO worried that I'm going to go in next week for my last blood draw and first ultrasound and my beta will have dropped and that'll be that. My nurse warned me I also might not see the sac because of how early I am but if I saw it I know it would calm me down so much.

    I'm trying sooo hard to stay optimistic and relaxed but it's just so hard!

  • It definitely doesn't feel real to me, either.  Hopefully once I have that first u/s it will become real!

  • Yes I can definitely relate!  It is so incredible that there is a growing person inside of me that is changing everyday!  The whole process is really amazing! So fun that we are all on this journey together (cheesy but true).

    Yep. All of this. This is my 3rd pregnancy after dealing with IF since 2007. It is just amazing to me that people manage to have healthy babies at all. Everytime I go to the bathroom, I check the TP for blood.

  • Yes, I can absolutely relate
  • I feel this though out the day too. I will stop and think OMG, I have a baby in me! It is so wierd and exciting. I wake up in the mornings and remember I am pregnant and it just freaks me out (in a great way).

    I cant wait for my 1st appointment- I am hoping it feels real then.

    I also keep checking my boobs, I think they have grown and I think I might be starting to be a bit bloated.

    I also cant wait until we tell our families. We are telling them on Thanksgiving. It will be a bit early (6w1d), but everyone will be together and it is just immediate family plus grandparents. We plan on announcing during the time we go around the table saying what we are thankful for. "And we are thankful for our expanding family..." Oh, I cant wait for that, and all the food :)
