Constant Anxiety
Show your support
Currently 16 w 3d with 2 prior miscarriages. Legit have fear every single day 😅
The anxiety, worry and fear is killing me. I just feel like why am I so lucky with no miscarriages. Idk if that's awful to say I know I should feel grateful but it feels unreal. Like I should have had that experience before conceiving my son. Which of course I'm not asking for that I just feel like my situation is too good to be true.
I am a wildly anxious and the only thing that gets me through is knowing that there are 8 billion babies that have been born on this earth and the chances of something happening at this point are small, not zero but small! Soooo many successful births have happened before us!
@Kelly I always forget about those statistics! I think it's because I just ended up getting surrounded with the sad stories and the hardships people have gone through it feels like it's unfair i haven't gone through something similar. I appreciate hearing people's stories and know they need to be shared just when all I hear are the negatives it just gets to me especially being a negative person already
I’m in the same boat. 17 weeks 1 day here & haven’t had an ultrasound in weeks. I’m just ready to see my baby & make sure she’s okay
Hey with my first I felt the exact same way and actually feel like it with this one again since it’s a baby girl. I’m the same with no miscarriages yet and this will be my second healthy pregnancy. So I know what you mean when it seems like everyone you know has had miscarriages and it’s like you’re almost waiting for your turn. But they are truly plenty of people who are very lucky and just have healthy pregnancy without losing any of them. Like the person said above there are soooooo many healthy babies born. I think no one talks about the healthy ones as much cause there isn’t anything to really talk about if that makes sense? The majority of pregnancies are healthy even though it seems like everyone has all this crazy stuff happen. Like my mom had a miscarriage but she also had 5 healthy babies. So most of the time the babies are fine. You worrying about your baby is just you being a good mama but just try and enjoy the pregnancy and once you start feeling baby that helps 💜
Stop engaging with the sad stories on social, it will just make the algorithms feed you more of that content. Anxiety and fear are normal, but yours does sound excessive. Please be on high alert for PPD and PPA - I'd even talk to your OB about it now so it's on their radar. Moms do not get enough post-partum support and it is tragic.
Had two miscarriages last year and am currently 18+2 I think about it ALL the time. Like checking for blood every time I use the loo. It can be exhausting
I had a missed miscarriage at 15 weeks back in June. I am nothing but worry and anxiety this time around. (currently 19+4) I've gotten 3 private US throughout weeks 10-18 and I still worry. Have my anatomy scan next week at 20+5❤️
