Anyone terrified?

bunnybean · March 2013

Not of pregnancy or being a mom (this is my first time ever), but of miscarrying? I haven't had trouble getting pregnant, and I only have one risk factor for miscarriage (I am overweight), but I am seriously TERRIFIED. I am afraid every time I go to the bathroom that I'll see blood. I feel pretty good today, and it makes me think I've lost it.

I have pretty serious anxiety, but is this just normal for early pregnancy anyway? Are you guys all nervous too? Or am I a crazy person?

sameoldash · March 2013

if you're crazy, i'm crazy too. i was in shock when i first found out, and of course that means i'm freaked constantly. i keep thinking, what if i miscarry? or it's just a chemical pregnancy? or an ectopic pregnancy? what if there's no egg in the sac a

Well if you're crazy, so am I

This is my first pregnancy, too, and I'm kinda nervous. I think part of that is because I'm not at all naive, and most of my best friends and friends already have kids... and there have been many miscarriages amon

Omg me too. I made the mistake of reading about blighted ovum. And I feel like I know WAY too many people that have miscarried. So I'm really nervous to tell people and I'm trying not to get too attached, and that sucks!

I'll join the crazies.. this is my 2nd pregnancy and I should know from the first time that all of these twinges and teeny cramps are totally normal. Do I use that rationale in my head when they happen, though? Of course not. I freak a little bit insid

I think this is a normal fear. As someone who has suffered two losses in the same year let me tell you that the anxiety and "whatifs" will do absolutely nothing for you. Do not google stuff if you aren't having symptoms. Heck, even if

StinaLeigh · March 2013

Yep. Same here. But I realize there isn't anything I can do, so I'm just trying to be in the moment and am trying to stay busy so my mind doesn't wander into what-if's too much.

As I always say, live by this motto: "Today I am pregnant, and I love my baby."

Me! I'm doing it alone for the 2nd time, I have a 4 year old boy!

I don't even get menstrual cramps and have cramped through both my previous pregnancies but every cramp still makes me nervous!

I miscarried before and it's hard but beyond our control. Reminding myself of that helps

I'll go ahead and toss my name into the paranoid category as well. I am getting a little better, but I had cramps for a few days that had me concerned.

Here's hoping we can all find some peace.

We just found out about our baby this past Sunday and like most women on here I'm nervous. I feel a bit better knowing that I'm not the only one with mild cramping. That's ladies, and congratulations.

I'm definitely nervous! I was with my other pregnancies as well. I hate that it is out if my control.

This is my 5th pregnancy and I'm still worried about the baby falling out when I poop LOL. Just because you know something can't happen doesn't make it any less worrisome I guess. :

bunnybean · March 2013

So glad I'm not alone! Keep hoping to take it one day at a time!

Unknown · March 2013

This is my first pregnancy but we tried for a year and a half and took two rounds of Clomid to get here. I feel like it was so hard to get here and I'm scared everyday! I have mild cramping and it makes me nervous but I know this baby was ment to be, I fe

criswithnoh · March 2013

Every day I'm scared something's going to happen and my husband keep reassuring me. He understands my need to POAS every day. I just have to keep reminding myself that every pregnancy starts this early and you just keep trotting along.

MLKrill03 · March 2013

I feel a lot better know that I'm not alone with these feelings! Thanks for starting the post!

MrsQueale · March 2013

I am very scared! I lost ours a couple days after 12 weeks. So I don't think I'll be able to relax this whole pregnancy.

My due date is a few days after our loss, so it makes it very bittersweet. We weren't even trying this month for that re
