I hate this feeling

Aubs13

I hate feeling like something is going to go wrong.  I think it just about every minute of the day. 

I'm jealous of the girls on my month board, b/c they're already posting bump pictures, and I don't have a bump.  I know that everyone is different, but having a bump would make me feel at least a little bit better.  Granted, I've got more "fluff" than the girls that are posting pictures, but still...)

I think I'm starting to get really worried b/c we're planning to announce to our families this week and next week, so everything is starting to worry me.

Sorry for the vent; I knew you would understand, and I think DH is done listening to me panic.

Aubs, when was your last U/S? And how far along are you?  I feel like such a bad buddy having to ask but you need a clicky ticker or something

Everything will be perfect!!!

Ah - the game that is PgAL. I think I have peed on more than 25 pee sticks in the last week trying to set my mind at ease. 

But try not to worry.  I can't remember - when is or was your ultrasound?

I'm 12w, 2 days today.  My last u/s was the beginning of the month, and everything looked great.  My next appointment is Jan. 3rd, but they're not planning to do another u/s at that time.  (I don't understand why they don't do one at EVERY appointment!!)  If I request an u/s "off schedule", we have to pay out of pocket.  Of course, I think its worth it, but with traveling for Christmas, we won't have that extra money this week.

Rock-elle...you're not a bad buddy!  I've tried to do a clicky ticker MANY times, but I'm technologically impaired, and it never works out right!

Yes, are the naive comments that they make too.

Aubs, for me, if I make it that far I fully realize that I will never be able to do BPF until like 30w without horrifying half of the Bump.  I think I have fluffy bloat now but will never be able to sport an official bump for awhile.

I don't know why they don't so an US at every visit, esp in our case, I think thats dumb.  Do you have a dopplar yet? 

I vote you tell and enjoy every minute of it. Do you want a clicky ticker?  I'd make you one...or twelve

I was going to say the same thing. I can't properly stalk you ladies when there is no ticker/linked ticker

12 weeks??? Woohoo!! So excited for you Aubs. Depending on which doc you ask or what medical journal you look in you are officially in 2nd tri. Lol.

I TOTALLY get you. My symptoms have subsided a little and of course I'm freaking out now.  I talked to my dr this am and they said as long as no bleeding, you're still good.  I think I'm even more nbervous because we are going to tell the parents on Xmas.  I will be just about 8w or so and we have heard the heartbeat, but it's still not real.  I have another u/s next Thurs, so I'm just killing time until then.  Best of luck to you!

How exciting you're getting ready to tell your families!  I recall having a lot more anxiety than normal right before we told our folks because it meant making it a little more "real" which meant to me having more than just my heart and DH's heart at risk of breaking if something happened again...  I can't say it has gone away even now, but there def was a spike right before the big reveal.  Hope you have fun telling them!!!

I hear you - I just had a 2nd appt monday where I thought I'd get to see LO again but he just used the doppler to find the heartbeat....which was amazing!!! but seemed so short lived. You need to keep reminding yourself that this pregnancy is different, you have no reason to believe it will end badly. This is such a weird time right now, I keep poking my belly and I don't really feel anything different. It just looks like I havent been working out very well. You will be just fine, just relax and try to enjoy the holidays.
