    I think every expectant mom has those fears. I worry it too, but remind myself that I am having no symptoms and every week I am closer to my little one developing a heart beat and then entering the second trimester. At both milestones there is a drop off in miscarriages and by the second trimester it is only 1%

    Yep, I have an active PgAL mind.  I keep reminding myself that I am pregnant today, and all signs point to being a healthy baby.  Once I saw the heartbeat, that helped a bunch.  My doctor told me that my mc risk dropped to like 5% with that milestone.

    Thanks guys. I'm 4 weeks and have my first prenatal appointment next Friday on the 5th so hopefully everything goes normal.

    Yes, and I am hoping its totally normal. I had my u/s about 2.5 weeks ago and had been feeling some symptoms. Today, I should be measuring 9 weeks according to my u/s but I haven't really had symptoms recently. I know I should be happy to be feeling better, but it gives me such unease and I keep wondering if something has gone wrong.

    My doctor said at our last appointment, "Congrats, now you can tell your family at Thanksgiving since everything looks good." I should feel confident that he felt we could tell our families this soon (without my even asking), but I am definitely still nervous.

    You're hoping it's normal to be paranoid?! Of course it is! No matter what you're history is you're always afraid of having to experience the pain of a loss. I'm very lucky... we've gotten pregnant on the first try twice and I've never had a loss (I hope that doesn't rub anyone the wrong way. I am NOT bragging. I know I'm extremely lucky and I feel for anyone who has had a loss), but I still worry every time I go to the bathroom or feel anything weird. The nerves won't calm down until you go into labor... then it's a whole new set of nerves! And once that's over... a whole new set of nerves about raising your child correctly! And then nerves about them coming home every night... and going off to college...it never ends!

    Yeah I have a 6 year old so I'm trying to remember how I felt then but I'm having no luck. It was so long ago. I'm glad you feel the same way every pain or weird feeling I get paranoid. But even more so that 2 weeks ago I bled for 3 days which was odd but then a week later I took a test and it was positive. And just to be sure I have taken one for the past week almost every day and it's still positive so just ultra worried and I really hope my doctor says everything is normal next week

    I'm a worrier by nature, so yes - now that I'm pregnant, I am worrying about miscarriage! I just keep telling myself that I feel healthy and everything seems to be normal! And there isn't much I can do until my first doctors appointment anyways! I will be 7.5 weeks at my first appt, so hopefully I can get a good idea of where I'm at! And then it'll only be a few more weeks until my first u/s!! Just trying to keep busy to distract my mind and wait for the little milestones!!

    I am 5 and a half weeks right now, had a m/c in 2010. I have my first ultrasound tomorrow and am a little nervous because my last hcg result didn't double like it should have so they wanted to get me in sooner. Not sure what that means but I am paranoid but I also tell myself as long as I have no bleeding and cramping, all is good. I also keep telling myself everything will be ok, everything happens for a reason

    Yes.  I had a miscarriage last year and this is my first pregnancy since then.  Every thing I feel, every cramp etc I am panicked.
