Irrational Pregnancy Fears. (Funny ones) Let's share!

Joanna O · April 2012

This is my second pregnancy, and I was blessed with a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby. For that I am VERY thankful. Every day I look at my son I fall more and more in love.

BUT that doesn't mean I didn't have worrying thoughts every 5 seconds when I was pregnant with him.

Thought it might be fun to share some of the more wacky fears we have (had).

Ok I'll go first.

I used to not want to push to hard when, ::unhemmm:: using the restroom as I thought that might push the baby out too. Embarrassed

I know that is so dumb but it scared me for reals! LOL

I keep having a dream where the baby chews through the cord. You know, because a fetus has shark teeth and all.

With my son I went into PTL at 28 weeks. The doctor had me come in right away and did an ultrasound. He was like "holy crap, woman your bladder is so full! Why haven't you gone pee?" I had to tell him that I was afraid of having a toilet baby and dreaded going pee. He made me pee right away and even gave me one of those hats to humor me. Apparently he had never watched "I didn't know I was pregnant"

I fear what will happen to my lady parts. Ugghhhhh.....

On a more serious note, I know this is somewhat vain, but I'm terrified of what this pregnancy will do to my body. I am very fit and active, and have always taken excellent care of my body. For the last month, I have had no desire to do my yoga, hike, or swim. I'm scared I'll lose all motivation :-(

That whole SHOW is my irrational fear. My yoga instructor just found out she was preggers at 15 weeks. She never missed a pill and was on Seasonale, so there was no missed period clue. No weight gain, no symptoms. Finally, she started to feel "off" so she took a HPT. Figured she was four weeks or so. NOPE. Fifteen. Yikes.

The bathroom thing, and only because I have nightmares of losing the baby like that. I wish they would STOP!! Embarrassed

Ever since my internal u/s, I'm afraid of sex. I KNOW it's safe, but if that rod could find the baby, then I wondered if hubby could jostle it too. Embarrassed

I am terrified that I will tear all the way or break my pelvis during delivery. It just doesn't seem like there is enough room down there for it to come out.

I was a 10.5 lb baby and my biggest fear is that this baby will be a similar size or bigger (because I know my mom has been praying for payback for 29 years now).

I'm scared to push too much when "ahheemmming" for fear of hemorroids. I guess they are pretty much inevitable. And, vainly, I'm afraid of what it will do to my body. At 9 weeks I've been very fortunate in the sickness department and have been able to keep running & yoga.

That's just mean of your mom!

I'm sort of worried about what will happen to my body, my stomach and whether or not I'll tear and become incontinent.

BarooGirl · April 2012

My usual fears: pooping or farting in front of the Drs and DH, being hungry while in the hospital and not being able to eat...

Now I have a new one:

I really dont want to break my tailbone in labor. I didnt know this could happen, I hope it doesnt.
