Excited (and scared)

HI all,
I am excited to finally be able to post in this section. I was diagnosed with PCOS about a year ago along with some other health issues. My husband and I decided to actively start trying in February so my doctor put me on Metformin twice a day. I had my FIRST period on my own (without the help of birth control) on April 21st and decided to start temping. Next thing you know, I see a clear jump and realized I had ovulated. Faint positive test 13 dpo on 5/21 and the rest is history. Needless to say, my husband nd I are ecstatic. However, I am so beyond scared of mc. My beta HCG was 36.8 at 15 dpo and it jumped to 433.4 at 19 dpo. We have our first appointment on 6/2 and we are counting down the hours. I am trying hard to reduce my worry but it is very difficult and, for once, I wish I wasn't a nurse. Any advice on how to reduce the worry and stress?
Congrats to all!

Its normal to worry about loss and you will find that most all of us are, especially this early in the game. The best advice I have is to take it one day at a time....today I am pregnant. I tell myself that I know I'm doing every thing "right" and if it happens its complety out of my control.
