First Timer (with anxiety) from Austin

hey y'all! This is my first BFP and I'm about 4 weeks in (got it at 12 DPO). I live in Austin, TX and am so glad that I'm in the March 2016 birth month! 1) Because no one wants to be 9 months pregnant in 105 degree summer weather! and 2) because March has a little bit of luck from the Irish!

Right now my biggest fear is this baby won't stick and I've taken a HPT or two every day since I got my BFP to check on it. This fear has also lead to many nights of four hours of sleep or less. :( Hoping the boards can ease my mind and help me get a little more rest and take care of this growing poppyseed!

Just wanted to say "hi" before I start posting!

:-h

    Hi! Congratulations! Try not to stress (easier said then done) but I completely understand, this is my 3rd and I still worry about everything! :)

    This is my second pregnancy, first one ended in a miscarriage at 7 weeks. I am 7 weeks now and it takes a great deal of mental effort to not fixate on every twinge. It's stressful, but it's totally normal. No matter how many tests you take, it will not change the outcome of the pregnancy, at least that is what I have been telling myself this pregnancy just to get through without breaking the bank. Also, I read an article recently about choosing to live in fear or faith after losing a child and becoming pregnant again. I'm choosing faith. Some days my resolve to have faith is stronger than others though!

    Welcome! I live close to Austin. The wait for your doctors appointment is tough! I am trying to take it one day at a time!

    Hi! From Austin, too! This is my 2nd pregnancy, 1st one ended in a miscarriage mid March. I am grateful for that experience, as crazy as it sounds. It truly solidified our decision about having a baby and showed me that I really am a tough cookie. I believe everything happens for a reason. Certainly I am a bit stressed about the possibility of it happening again, but I can tell you, based on my own experience, it's almost like I knew the first one wasn't going to stick. This time around, I am so overjoyed and it is sucj a different feeling from the last time. Fingers crossed yours is a sticky baby and try not to stress. What will be, will be!
