Anxious about baby not sticking
Show your support
The first few weeks can be tough. I did a number of things such as daily devotionals, meditation, gratitude journal, uplifting movies, sunshine, workout sessions, etc. I was infertile for a decade before I got pregnant the first time so I had a lot of fears. It was easier the second time around.
And yes to the positive affirmations. I would include that in my daily gratitude journal. Something like: “I am so grateful for my healthy baby.”
this is my first pregnancy after a miscarriage with my fiance Nov of 2023, i do have a 3 year old with my ex but this will be his first born and he’s the only boy of his family for his family name, so i feel the anxiety. i had a journal i wrote to my miscarriage baby, don’t know why but it helped me grieve. i started writing to this baby and it’s helping telling them all my hopes and dreams since i found out i try to write every night if im not sleeping right away after work. and in the mornings before work while i get ready i hold my belly and say affirmations. i’m unsure if that’ll help any but i promise you’re not alone!
I feel like maybe we were having a similar night last night because I was deep in my worry and anxiety. I don’t know if I have any good advice, but I keep reminding myself that worrying is normal and my odds of having a healthy pregnancy are way higher than not. Just sharing so you know you are not alone! ❤️
It's ok every day/week the chances of miscarriage get smaller. That's what I keep telling myself. I'm still going to be worried but I just keep trying to think positive. Your body does wild things under stress so try to be positive and take care of the baby as much as you can. Right now it's a tiny little bean needing you to just remain calm, stay hydrated, and eat well. You've got this mama! ❤️
