i dont know why i have so much anxiety regarding this pregnancy...well, i mean, i do know why...lol...but i get so anxious around appointment times, wondering if the baby stopped growing, no heartbeat, etc....

so although there was no u/s today, atleast i got re assured that my little bean is still alive and kickin in there...next appointment is in 4 weeks...then the big one is 2 weeks after that.....wowswers....i feel like its moving so slow at times, and at other times, i feel like its moving so fast....

    I know how you feel!  For a split second today before the u/s started, I thought "what if the baby isn't there or it's not alive anymore?"  I felt crazy thinking it but it did run through my mind.  Hopefully we stop thinking those things the further along we get! Congrats on a great appointment!

    Glad you got to hear the heart. Honestly, until I posted on this board, I never knew there could be so many women who would go to their appointments and find out their babies stopped growing. Now I know that, sadly, it happens... but if I didn't post here, I would never have felt anxiety about it. Sometimes, too much information is not a good thing - it makes us even more anxious! But oh well, I like the Bump too much to leave lol.

    I hear ya! With my previous 2 pregnancies I never even remember worrying. Then I miscarried and it took my naive attitude away. I had my NT scan yesterday and DH couldnt be there because of an emergency at work. All I could think of was that I was going to be alone when they told me there was something wrong with my baby. All turned out just fine. I hope at some point in this pregnancy I can just relax a little.

    Although I am not carrying our child I understand the anxiety. My DH and I had a ton of previous miscarriages and this baby is the first in 9 years that we have ever made it this far along. I get so worried not only for the baby but the health of our birthmom. Glad to hear your appointment was awesome :)
