Pregnant after 35

So anxious...kind of long, sorry

This is my 2nd pregnancy, so you would think I would know the drill.  I promised myself (and my DH) that I would not be the crazy person I was when I was pregnant with my son, but honestly, the anxiety is getting the better of me.  I am a little over 5 weeks (based on my LMP, haven't been to the doctor yet), and I am so incredibly scared that something is going to happen.  I have been really sick for about a week...lovely cold from my son's preschool, no doubt, so my attention has been focused on feeling better.  Now that I am starting to feel better, my mind is starting to go crazy again.  

I go to the doctor on Thursday, but just to talk to the OB nurse and for the routine blood work.  My first true doctor's appointment isn't until Feb. 15 (day after my birthday) and I think that is when they will do the first ultrasound.  I don't know how I'm going to make it until then.  When I was PG with my son, I was working full-time, and now I am a stay-at-home-mom.  I'm busy, but busy in a different way, with more free time to freak out.  I'm just son anxious to make sure that everything is ok.   Sorry if I sound like a big baby!

  • Don't think you're crazy or a big baby. Some anxiety is normal, right? Having a baby is a big deal no matter how many you've had :

  • I'd say it's normal to worry....but try to focus on wonderful DS turned out.  I know it seems like a long time, but the appointment will be here before you know it.
