Absolutely petrified!

:wave: hey ladies,

Today I got my first bfp since my MMC 1 year and 2 months ago, although I'm super happy I'm also really scared that I'm gonna have to go through that again

I was just wondering if anybody can help with any tips to stop me from worrying too much (if there is any!) and also if I asked my doctor would they give me an early scan like 7wks even though I've only had 1 MC?

I was 8 weeks when I MC'ed but baby was only measuring 5 weeks so the main thing I'm worried about is my baby dying and me not knowing for weeks ..

Any advice? Sorry for your losses & I hope your pregnancies are going well! X

Hi

The fear is completely normal. My advice is to take it 1 day at a time- today your are pregnant. I do not think it's unreasonable to ask for an early scan, either. It can certainly help ease the fear, but sometimes it can cause more anxiety. I wouldn't do on before 7 weeks, though. Good luck to you and I'm sorry for you loss.

Thanks for replying,

I definitely don't want one before 7weeks cos I know it'd probably end up freaking me out but I'm just hoping they let me have one.
Yeah, I suppose that's a good way of looking at things. I need to calm down cos ATM my bubba is in there.. Some days it's easier said than done though isn't it lol

Thankq, big congratulations to you!

Hi Amy , I agree with everyone , I had a mmc on Christmas Eve at 12 weeks . Fell pg again and am now 8+3 . For the last 8 weeks I nearly didn't breath I was so worried about everything !!! I was certain it was going to happen again . However I had an early scan today and everything was just perfect baby measured 4 days ahead and strong hb

About 3 weeks ago I had to give myself a good talking too I as literally worrying myself sick . So I decided to take it one day at a time . I said at the end of each day " today I'm pregnant and I'm ok " I tried not to think beyond the day that was here and not to think forward . It really helped I'm gonna continue to do it for now

So girl Today we are pregnant and all is ok xxxxxx

Yeah, I am petrified too. I lost my little one 9 weeks ago at 16 weeks. I am now 4+5 weeks pregnant and scared to pieces.

I like what left wonderin said above and am going to try and live like that for the next 8 weeks!

I'm gonna try to do the same it's so difficult but I know that the more relaxed I am the more chance my LO has of sticking.

Fxd for us both, I hope these are our forever babies x
