I have my first OB appt and ultrasound for this pregnancy today at 1pm and I would love some happy, positive T&P around that time. I'm 7w2d today so hoping to see a nice strong heartbeat and measuring on-schedule, in the right place. Remaining calm and zen has not really worked for me...I was up almost all night (partly due to a storm, but mostly due to worry) and today I feel like my heart is going to pound its way out of my chest. I even POAS last night, even though that isn't really going to tell me anything.
Then of course since I had my loss in the 8th week last time, so even a great appt today will only temporarily relieve the worry. So I guess I could use some anti-anxiety vibes as well!
Thanks for listening to my PGAL craziness.
Re: I could use some sticky dust...
When 3 Became 4
Take slow, deep breaths. Innnn.... hold for 5 seconds.... outtttt...slowly. Over and over until you can feel your body relax.
Tell your baby that you love him and you are going to keep him safe for the next 7 months and for the rest of his life.
I will pray for a flickering dot on the u/s and for strength for mama. And for the u/s tech to be lightening quick!
eta: I had debilitating anxiety with my pregnancy and the breathing seemed to help, if only a little. But it was rare for me to lay down on the table and not burst into tears because I was so worried. Hang in there, dear. You are strong. You can do this.
