Nervous about anatomy scan..?

I know a lot of you mommas already had your scans. I can't stop feeling so nervous :( we had a miscarriage in feb and it's really thrown me off. I'm freaked out before every apt. We opted out of all the testing so this scan with be the first indication of babies health. Anyone else go through this anxiety? I def wasn't like this with my first two. My scan is in a week.

    I had mine yesterday........it took awhile for the doctor to come in and provide us the results. I was pretty anxious......hoping it didn't mean there was anything wrong.

    It turned out she was worried about the location of the placenta so she was looking at all the angles. Baby is just fine :)

    It's easy to worry - but you get to see your little one of the screen. And if anything is suspicious during the scan, they will just schedule another appointment to get better angles or get you better information. Most likely your mind will be put at ease and you will come out with some cool baby pictures :)

    I'm so sorry for your loss.
    I'm pretty nervous. I didn't find out until almost 3 months along I was pregnant. I have had two quick ultrasounds but they only checked to make sure there was a heartbeat and that the baby was growing...so I'm super nervous and want to know everything is ok.
    It's not uncommon to have this anxiety. I had it with my last pregnancy too and I know lots of mamas on here are feeling it.
    FX for healthy babies :) let us know how it goes :)

    I have my 20 week scan today and I am a bit nervous. So far the pregnancy has been so perfect, I always feel like something is bound to go wrong lol I am usually a glass half full person so feeling this way is out of character for me. We aren't finding out the sex (fingers crossed the tech doesn't slip up) so today is all about the health of this little one. We are also planning for an out of hospital birth so hoping that the placenta is high up and no abnormalities that would make our plan unsafe. 

    Fingers crossed we both get the all clear!

    STM and slightly nervous.  Dropped kiddo off at Parents Day Out and thought about organizing/sorting the bin of infant clothes upstairs but thought maybe I should wait until after A/S.  I try to minimize the worry and realize me sorting or not sorting clothes has NO impact on the health of my child.  Getting stressed isn't good though so I'm trying to stay positive.

    We had our NT Scan and bloodwork and all of that came back healthy, so that's definitely calming before going into the Anatomy Scan. It's still nervewracking, just not as much. Ours is next week. GL to you!

    I was pretty anxious before our AS. I was on edge all week before the appt, and then felt a huge sense of relief once we saw the baby was ok. Fingers crossed you also get good news at your appointment. It's totally normal to be nervous, try to find ways to relax, if you can.

    Mine is in two weeks and I'm super nervous!!! Had a bumpy start to the PG so not planning on telling anyone until after the scan!! Trying to keep myself busy so I forget about it and going to bed super early to make the days go faster!! I think it's normal to be anxious! We want our LOs to be healthy !!! Good luck hope all looks good with your scan!!

    I thought I was the only one who was nervous!! This makes me feel so much better. People keep asking if I'm excited, and I am to find out the sex...but there's still part of me that's anxious that something is wrong. No reason to be, but I will feel relieved once we see Sweetpea again and get all the measurements and know for sure.
