Am I realy here??

[havefaith01]

Just a few days shy of 14 weeks. I can't believe it! I am hoping to be a little less stressed and start to not worry so much. I had a mmc about 8 months ago. I am so happy to be here, but it still feels so unreal!

Welcome, congrats! I hope the 2nd tri treats you better than me lol...either way it's still better than 1st!

YAY YOU!

Welcome. I feel you. I had a miscarriage this year too (well, 2015, so last year I guess now!) And I'm 15 weeks.

For me the worry has subsided a bit. I know I'll worry the whole time (um... and probably just the rest of my life) but the first trimester worry was a real animal to overcome sometimes.

I am a bit calmer now. I was high risk in fertility care, so i was seeing the doctor every week. I was SUPER nervous about a lot of things that went with going into second tri for me (stopping my progesterone supplements, no more ultrasounds twice a month, just a very different situation) But I've found myself settling in a bit.

I talk about the baby much more than in first tri. In first tri I was always worried I'd jinx myself. Once second tri started I decided this was ridiculous. First of all, obviously being happy and talking about the baby is not going to do anything bad. Plus... I'm potentially missing out on indulging in some of the silly thoughts and fun moments of pregnancy.

I had to force myself to do it at first, but after a while I think it's helped me.

Good luck and know you're not alone!

Welcome! I can speak from experience that the further along you get the more confident you will feel (even with some worry sprinkled in here and there). Also, a doppler was a godsend to me, I listen to my little girl every day, just for a few seconds.
