I'm an emotional basket case today
Need to calm down----I keep thinking and worrying and what if-ing everything to death. Ridiculous! I got so worked up over that ultrasound yesterday and its really silly because I don't know anything yet and really at this point its more likely that things are fine and dandy than not and regardless worrying about it isn't going to change anything anyway.
So I know these things--how can I keep it out of my head? I'm banning myself from google--that I know. I'll have the results from bloodwork on Friday so that is only a couple days away but seems forever. I don't remember being this nuts with DD but I'm sure I probably was---not really known for being a calm person!

This. ((hugs))
Maybe try reading a book or magazine that's totally unrelated to baby stuff? IDK, I'm not good at calming down, either.
((hugs))
100% this. Sending you lots of calming vibes and good thoughts! {{hugs}}
Love this.
What about starting a new hobby? Scrapbooking? Knitting? Trashy tv? A new book? I agree with something that will make you try to get your mind off of it for a little bit at a time.
I work full time so technically I should be busy
But yes once home after DD goes to bed I plan to go for a walk and then catch up on some of my shows and a little of the trashy novel I'm reading before bed. Thanks for the suggestions! I NEED to scrapbook---poor Ry doesn't have one from her first year yet!

::sending calm vibes your way::
You guys are all so wonderful! I did give in to my crazy self and took another pregnancy test tonight and it was definately positive---in fact the pregnant indicator came up way before the control line even did. I know that doesn't mean everything is perfect but it made me feel better anyways since I hadn't taken one since Sunday and hoping that I get fantastic news on Friday from my betas tomorrow.
Been praying a lot and saying the mantra--appreciate all your thoughts and prayers. You guys rock!
