Constant Worry

I hate this feeling of being in a constant state of worry. As a Christian I know that I am not suppose to fear or be anxious but having had two mc's before I am so scared at every pain, twinge, etc. I think part of the worry is that my emotions are starting to go crazy between the pregnancy and the progesterone treatment we are taking. Anyone have any good advice for how to stay calm during this time. We are two weeks out from our first ultra sound but I might drive myself crazy before then.

Re: Constant Worry

  • I'm always worried too :/ However, I either practice breathing methods from yoga, pray, or just relax. My favorite way to relax from a long day is to take a warm bath with lavender epsom salt (I called my doc, this is perfectly fine!) This is my first pregnancy so everything is new, I don't know what to expect or when. It's crazy but in my heart I know everything will be worth all the worry (not an excessive amount but I'm sure all women worry some!) about 8 months from now! T&P for you!

  • I am about 2 weeks out from my 1st ultra sound too...I find it comforting to read the week by week tracker on here and articles that talk about things such as cramps being "normal".  I don't get them often but I am the same way, every time I get one I get nervous....of course looking at cute baby stuff is always a fun distraction too ;)
  • I completely understand why you're worried, I'm pretty sure most of us are worried. Just keep in mind that now that you're pregnant, the worry is not going to go away, but you're just going to have to learn to keep it under control. I still worry about DD#1 and she's over 7 months old. Your whole pregnancy, you may feel odd aches or pains that will make you worry. Once you start feeling your baby move you'll get worried every time you go too long and don't feel movement. After your baby is born, you'll worry about SIDS. It's just part of being a parent. I'm a Christian too, and all I can do is pray for protection and do my best to protect DD.
  • I've also had 2 losses so you're not alone.  Just take everyday as a blessing. 

    the PGAL motto is:   Today I am pregnant, and I love my baby.

  • I'm worry too, I dont think my parents have history of MC but DH mother does. I'm christian too, I jsut try to distract myself and pray to God to give some enlightenment. I usually either listen to xmas music (its almost there) or reading book, try to keep my chin up.

    Oh and I know this sound crazy but I kinda talk to my little poppy seed too, keep telling him/her to stay in there and be strong (I text msg DH today and told him I constantly talking to my belly and I feel crazy by doing it LOL)
