Video recording like nyla said . Just had a 9 week miscarriage so. Good luck.
Get excited! Look at all the cute baby things, play around with names, embrace the excitement, ask all the mum questions you want!! Yes sometimes things don’t go to plan but in the other hand - they do! Enjoy being pregnant, there’s no right or wrong way to deal with it so follow your gut! If you want to buy something then sod it, buy something for the baby, just maybe hold off on the car seat and buggy 😄
Be excited go for it no need to mange it your going to be a mum that’s amazing !
Firstly, Congratulations! Here is the best outlet for asking the weird and wonderful. Be excited but just make sure you're ready for the world to know when you start telling people. Hope you find a great mum network for your journey
There's a risk at any point in pregnancy, that worry doesn't go away trust me so enjoy every happy feeling and excitement you have because non of us know what tomorrow brings but we live for the here and now 😊
Congrats lovely! I personally let myself just feel the excitement. I understand why people don’t want to get excited.. but it can be such an anxious time, I let myself do all of the pregnancy stuff, share stories with other pregnant women, watch TikToks, window shop and learn about pregnancy. I’ve experienced a chemical pregnancy before, but I wanted to have a positive experience and not look back on my pregnancy as a negative/lonely time. Let yourself feel all of the feels!!x
You’ve got to let yourself be happy and excited otherwise the anxiety and worry will consume you and how sad would it be to not appreciate it! Try not to get swept up by all the online negativity, there’s a lot of horrible stories and things on TikTok and other places so be careful what you’re taking in. Live life to the full ❤️
I’m nearly 21 weeks and it’s still all I think about all day long 😭🤣
Awww congratulations lovely!! Its so exciting!!! I know its also so tough if you not telling anyone till later x Just try to enjoy it and not worry so you keep your stress levels low and it will be ok :) What an exciting adventure you have to come!! Hope you are feeling ok as well xx
Absolutely thrive in the excitement and download every app, buy every book and have fun! Anything like this won’t change whether you will or will not have a pregnancy to term it is just down to genetics! I’ve experienced all sorts with my 4 pregnancies and my only regret is not allowing myself happiness and excitement when I truly felt it. I would advise avoiding any media surrounding miscarriage, terminations, pregnancy scare stories and anything related to child abuse as it’ll heighten your anxiety and stress and that’s not good for the baby or you x
Thank you everyone for your replies :)
Diary writing and capturing or recording my feelings from the first day is how I dealt with mine. Feel free to Download all the apps to track pregnancy and talk with your partner and lots of rest. I am 23+6 now
