Pregnant after IF

PAIF brain is running wild today

I am 11w2d today and I can't quiet that PAIF brain today.  I have my first OB appt tomorrow and I am nervous.  Usually I can quiet myself thinking about the 2 u/s we've had and being able to hear the hb twice but it's not working today. 

As we get closer to the 12w mark(when we decided we would let people know) I just can't shake the nerves.  We're going to a BBQ today and while I am so proud to know that we're carrying our miracle baby I don't know if I'm ready to tell anyone.  I know being superstitious is silly. 

I already love this little person so much.  I don't want to lose him/her.  

I guess I just have to suck it up.  Vent over.

    It's ok. Tell people when you are comfortable. I thought we'd tell everyone by 12 weeks, but I was still a nervous mess so we told immediate family only. I am 17 weeks and still haven't told a lot of people especially if I don't see them on a regular basis. Forcing it before I felt comfortable just increased my anxiety, so do what feels right to you. Hang in there!

  • I am about the same as you at 11 weeks and I feel the same. I am so scared of loosing this baby and it was a lot of work to get there. I have OB on Monday and a Ultrasound on Friday. I have a dopler and check daily, but I am still scared a lot. 

    Best of luck and lets hope our beans stick. Happy holiday!

  • Tell people when you are ready! We waited to tell my job at 25 weeks and our families at 31 weeks. It's up to you. I hope tomorrow's visit brings you more comfort and confidence.

  • You just do what you are comfortable with.  Honestly though the nerves never stop.  I am still a basket case.  But I told everyone right away.  Everyone knew about the IVF and I figured that the more prayers I had for the baby the better.  Esp because my numbers were so bad and it was such a bad start.   That's just me though, I can't keep my trap shut.  Also, there was no way to hide the constant vomitting :P
