Today isn't one of my better days...

Today I am feeling really down for some reason, and very anxious. This is my first pregnancy and I am having a really hard time relaxing. I keep thinking of all the things that can go wrong and the fact that I wont have an u/s until 18 weeks. I will be 8 weeks tomorrow and I know that is good, but then I read stories about missed miscarriages and I start to worry. DH gets frusterated with me worrying but that is just how I am by nature. Maybe I am just feeling down because I have been really emotional the past couple of days. I am frusterated at work and DH is in Germany until the end of the week. I still have all my pregnancy symptoms, super sore boobs, nausea and throwing up pretty much every day, and exceptional fatigue...not to mention oily skin and breaking out! I just wish I could relax and enjoy myself but I keep thinking of the "what ifs..."

  • I know most things we worry about never happen...but I'm the same way.

    Try to occupy your mind else where if you can. Its hard when your stuck at work and its a SLOW day :(

  • I know exactly how you feel.  I was that way all throughout my first pregnancy.  Just keep in mind that right up there with eating healthy and getting plenty of rest, baby also needs a low-stress Mommy! 

    I've found that when I am feeling a little down, or stressed about things going wrong particiapting in some of the fun postings on this board help.  I've gotten some pretty good laughs from some ladies on this board!!  Keep your head up!! 

    Good luck and congrats Mama! Big Smile
