Anxiety

I'm finding the first trimester so hard to get through, not because of morning sickness or any physical symptoms but just because I'm so worried that I'm going to lose baby or there will be something wrong and not knowing my exact dates too. I've never felt so alone

Have you considered booking a private scan for reassurance before your 12 week?x

I have but unfortunately I don't drive so it's hard to get there

Same here. I believe it’s the Devil Instilling that fear and anxiety and I’m just praying it off me and trusting that God is doing what he said he will do! 🙌

It's horrible, I can't stop worrying

Yes I spoke to a counsellor and its really helping. She gave me a positive statistic that I try to remember

@Gemma that sounds interesting, is that a statistic for miscarriage?

@Zoe opposite! She said 75% of pregnancies result in birth. To focus on that rather than flip sidr

@Gemma that's worth keeping in mind, thank you for sharing that. I have caved though and booked an early scan lol my anxiety is so bad lol

You are honestly not alone - I feel the exact same - it’s the unknown isn’t it. I really thought the physical symptoms would be worse for me too but it’s been the anxiety, and the fact that you can’t really tell anyone (unless you choose to) yet so you do feel alone. Hang in there - it’ll get better ❤️ (at least that’s what I keep telling myself!)

It really is the unknown, I've ended up booking an early scan to check everything is ok. I really hope it gets better

@Zoe it's normal. :) I'm booking one for early next week. As I've been so unwell and just wanna make sure baby OK :)

I've booked one and it's on Tuesday
