exercise? or have sex? or take a bath or hot shower? use cleaning products?

I know I'm being ridiculous but I'm feeling so nervous about losing this baby that I am avoiding all of the above.....help!

I have def had a fear of all those things recently.

For exercise I am sticking to walking, even though I worked out pretty intensely prior to getting pregnant - I told DH I would like to refrain from sex until we talk to the OB - and I had to use cleaning products today to clean my classroom, I had my shirt collar over my mouth and nose the entire time lol

I think it's perfectly natural to feel this way - I'm hoping to feel more relaxed once I talk to my OB and get some guidelines.

I have been too! My problem is that I look up things on the internet and hear horror stories! We havent had sex since we found out because DH saw a story where a girl had spotting after and he is like NOPE! I am very nervous too so I completely understand! I did take a warm bath the other day and it was VERY nice! Try not to be nervous and ill try too

! Heres to a very hopefully happy and healthy pregnancy!

I am scared to do everything!! I am trying to walk, no sex, and I have been turning down my showers.

I take burning hot showers usually, so I've been taking warm showers. Plus, I am a nurse so I brought home some masks from work and wore it while cleaning, hahah!! I am so freaking paranoid...

We had sex immediately following the positive test. He said "to make it stick", lol!

This was the most perfect post cause i was just about to post the same thing. We have had sex a couple times but nothing to crazy.haha. But today i asked my doctor about it and she said that it is better that i wait till i am further along. I have not yet shared the news with my hubby Big Smile

. I'm sure that is going to go over awesome, but of course he is extremely supportive. We also are big walkers and i want to continue to do that, just not as often. And cleaning i just can't help myself i have to clean.

We did too, but haven't since (we've both been really sick)..but I am kind of afraid to have sex so early on when we both start feeling better..This is my first time around for pretty much everything pregnancy, so I don't know what the limitations are..I've been working out at the gym 5 days a week since March (part of my pre-ttc plan), but again, since I've been sick, I haven't been to the gym..That is one thing that I think I will continue doing, once I'm feeling better..I heard it's ok to exercise during pregnancy as long as you were doing it pre-pregnancy..I also heard it helps with labor/delivery, and getting your pre-pregnancy body back faster

We've had sex, multiple times, but everything else, I am scared about. I've also been avoiding hot baths, cleaning with harsh chemicals, heavy lifting, exercise.. lol

My doctor said that NO MAN's penis can ever affect a pregnancy... they'll never get into a uterus.
