I have my 1st appointment tomorrow and I'm so nervous! I have a 19-month old son but I had a loss in September and I'm about 6 weeks along this time around so I'm just so scared to go through that again. Hoping this one sticks!
I felt the exact same. Even after seeing the heartbeat at 6+5 days last week I'm still worried. I've got another scan on the 5th of Jan which he kindly offered as an extra as its around the time I had my loss the last time and I'll be worried at that one and the next! I always remember a friend of mine saying worrying is just part of being a parent and that it doesn't stop as soon as the little one is born, I'm not a mom yet but it made sense. Every sniffle, rash or cough, the right school etc I guess worrying is what we've signed up for. Good luck with your scan! I'll be thinking of you, let us know how you get on X
Same here... I don't have any symptoms and feel completely fine so that worries me. But, I felt the same thing (or lack of) with DD1 and remember saying "If I didn't actually know I was pregnant, I wouldn't know I was pregnant!". And with DD1 I had my 1st ultrasound at 8weeks, my new Dr is doing it 10-12 weeks.

My first appointment is tomorrow and I'm also very worried. I had a loss in October and I never even made it to my first appointment with that one (I was 5w). I keep having dreams about this one going poorly. Despite having lots of symptoms, I seriously thought about buying another pregnancy test last night, JUST to be sure that I'm still pregnant (my hcg was already down to 4 when my last m/c started... had I tested that morning before the symptoms began, the test would've been negative).

I also have my first appt tomorrow (besides blood draws) and feel exactly how you do. I also had a loss in September (and a 21mnth old DS) and it has made me feel so anxious this pregnancy. I'm hoping that if we can see a heartbeat tomorrow I'll start to feel a little more at ease!
Glad to hear it went well. This is so hard after a loss. I have a second blood draw tomorrow and then will hopefully get to go in for an early u/s before the new year! T&P for all the PGAL August mamas as we get through these early 1st appointments!
I also had a loss in September at 9 weeks. Im glad im not the only one who is scared. I go in tomorrow to check my HCG levels again. My md is gonna keep a close eye on me and already listed me as high risk because that was my aecpnd loss this year. Good luck keep us updated!!!
I have my first appt tomorrow and I'm so nervous. I haven't had a loss, but I'm still scared. This is my third, and I'm just worried my first two were too easy. Even if we do see a hb tomorrow, I'll still be nervous for at least a couple more weeks.
