Confirmed pregnancy!

chrissie6

Hi Ladies, so I went to the doctor yesterday and I am pregnant.  I knew I was but when I went into the doctor last week the u/s showed nothing.. this week it showed the gestational sac and the yolk sac is present.  This is my second pregnancy (miscarried in January).. I am so worried that I will miscarry again.. I know it is out of my hands.. but it's always on my mind..

Did/do any of you feel the same way?  Anything I can do? 

Thanks!

Congratulations!!!  I know that everyone has/does feel the same way you are feeling right now and it lasts until the very end (I still worry).  Just think positive thoughts and repeat the mantras.

Congrats!

I feel that way and their is reason since we have all had a m/c...Like I said I am 11 weeks and still am a little scared of a m/c..

Just try to be thankful everyday that your pregnant and take one day at a time.

Congrats! Relax - I know easier said then done. I just keep telling myself that I am pregnant now and just b/c I had a m/c before doesn't mean that this one will end that way.

Congrats!  It's so hard to stay positive, but just try to take it one day at a time and celebrate little milestones.

Congratulations!  We like the mantras around here, they really do help!

--"Today I am pregnant and I love my baby."
--"I am pregnant until someone tells me otherwise."
--"My past does not dictate my future. A previous m/c does not mean I will have another m/c."
--"Just because something sad is happening to another poster, does not mean it will happen to you." We all know m/c and complications are not contagious!
-- "Hope does not make bad things happen" You cannot ?jinx? your pregnancy by creating a ticker, getting excited, or telling someone. Live in the positive!
--And this is the hardest one: "There is nothing I can do to prevent a m/c from happening. Worrying yourself sick doesn't prevent a m/c. And if (gods forbid) it were to happen again, I know I will survive."

Congrats on the pregnancy! Given the nature of this board, I think all of start off very very anxious anout the new PG.

For myself, I kept repeating the mantras and as time went on, I found myself slowly (but surely) believing that I was actually going to have this baby!

Again welcome to SAL and congrats!!

Congratulations!!!  We all have felt that way...and still do!  You just have to keep faith and don't lose hope!

Congrats.... that is great news.  WE actually all go through those fears... that is the world of SAL.  Pretty much one thing is to just take it one day at a time. The other is to keep the pg mantras in mind.

Congrats!!! I take it one day at a time and a lot of deep breaths! It is slowly getting better, although I'm only 9 wks, but so far so good! Set little milestones, remember the mantras, and we are all here for you when you need a pep talk!

Congrats! I was so overwhelmed when I got my bfp this time around.  The best advice I can give you is to take it one day at a time and keep the mantras in mind.  H&H 9 months to you!

Congratulations, Chrissie!  That's my name, too   I spell it the same, as well! 

It's hard not to worry.  I still worry.  I think I'll worry right up until the time I'm holding my healthy baby in my arms. But stay positive!  Rely on the good report at the doctor's office!  Enjoy your pregnancy   And a happy and healthy 9 months to you!!

Congratulations! I know you are scared, we have all felt like that. All you can do it find joy in being pregnant and try and relax. It is easier said then done. The mantras were a huge help for me, hopefully they will be for you.

I am so happy for you!!
