  Sounds like you've been making good choices so far!  As far as m/c, it's just one of those things that is super scary and looms over you, but as long as you continue on the path you've set for yourself, that's all you can do at this point.  Try not to worry and just take care of yourself.

  Please do not worry about what you cannot control.  I understand harder said than done.  Worrying is not good for you or the baby and again its something you cannot control.

  
  

  Put your life and baby's life in God's hands and let Him take control.

  
  

  Enjoy every minute of this miracle

  Pray for the best! Honestly the doctors office I went to made me feel a lot better about this. My mom had a miscarriage before me so it's always a fear of mine as well (first time mom here too). When I spotted a couple weeks ago I was freaking out. They really put my mind at easy and made everything better. Luckily everything stopped. But remember, if it does happen it's not your fault. It wasn't meant to be. You can't stop it or control it so as the midwife I met with said, your emotion and feelings go to baby, so relax and think happy thoughts!

  You know, you only have so much control over the miscarriages and then the rest you have to leave up to God. Sometimes that little baby just isn't going to make it and the people having miscarriages are in the minority. It's like worrying yourself sick you're going to have a car accident every time you go out. Luckily, you can breathe easy at week 12! By then, miscarriage risk drops dramatically! Just keep your head up, keep making good decisions, and what will happen will happen.

  I know it's really hard but just try not to worry about having a mc. There is rly nothing you can do to stop it from happening, so don't stress yourself out over it.
  
  I had like 5 ppl tell me that I shouldn't have told anybody yet just incase I mc. I simply said "thanks for your concern but I am just going to enjoy my pregnancy and not worry about things I can't control"

  It's normal to worry.   Just do the best you can, and try to get through each day.  It gets easier as you get farther along, can see your belly grow and can feel baby move.  But even once baby comes, you still get to worry about them every day.  It's your new job as a mom!

  My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage and so now I am worried about this one but each day that my symptoms get worse the more I feel like this is baby is gonna be a keeper. I may not enjoy the symptoms but they bring me some peace.

  it's really hard to believe you could be pregnant the first time around or to believe your body knows what its doing. it is such an amazing thing-- I always thought: that will never happen to me! or work out for me! that is just like winning the lottery! we will be praying for you! try to enjoy yourself. I can't wait for you to see your ultrasound and hear the heartbeat---you are going to feel great!
  
  sounds like you know who is ultimately in control
