8 week ultrasound---NERVOUS!

[Jamers89]

Hi all! I am pregnant after a miscarriage at 6 weeks in Aug. 2017, and am currently 8w2d. I go tomorrow for my first ultrasound, and am so excited but so very nervous too. I don't think I'll be able to really relax and enjoy this pregnancy until I see this baby and know its heart is beating.

I hate that my previous loss is taking the joy from this pregnancy. I am trying to stay positive, but some days I just worry. Any little twinge or reduction in my symptoms has me freaking out. I just wish I knew how to focus on this baby and not constantly be taken back to last year.

I feel the same I have my first ultrasound on Friday at just over 9 weeks after loosing a baby in August I just want to know that this little bean is okay!

Pregnancy after a loss is so hard! It's totally normal to feel nervous. Hopefully once you see that sweet little bean tomorrow it'll give you some more reassurance.

Thank you all for your kind words! Little bean is measuring 7-ish weeks, with a strong heartbeat! So very very happy Can't wait until January!

I also had a wonderful 8 week sonogram this week(170 bpm) but it seems like my relaxation lasts only one day, and I am already very nervous about my 9 week sono!

Maybe I should have posted this in the anxiety thread...
