Does the worry ever go away

[hmu04146]

I have had 3 miscarriages 2 of them were mmcs in a row and I caught straight away with my little man im cooking just now, I have never felt comfortable in this pregnancy and always expect something to happen to the extent that I cant sleep now incase he stops kicking during the night and im sleeping and dont notice, im shattered and must be a nightmare to live with im driving myself mad I need my baby boy to be ok I dont think I can cope for another 5 weeks til he comes and i dont know what to do xxx

I'm not even 4 weeks yet and duno how I'm gona last another 36

Have you thought about getting a doppler? then you can check his heartbeat, just to put your mind at ease?

I remember reading your story when i first joined and found it such an inspiration that you caught your bean straight away your little man is healthy just now and snuggled up in mummy, try and just relax and enjoy your last few weeks, think positive

No - I just had a wobble yesterday as he'd been quiet and I hadn't felt anything ( had been busy in the morning and a long nap in the afternoon so logically needn't have stressed)

Speak to your mw about your worries tho - and just take it a week at a time

I'm like LunaBean, only 4 weeks and can't really enjoy the news because I'm so worried. Before my m/c, I just took it for granted that everything would always be fine, I never would have thought to be nervous for a scan... now I think I'll be in tears in the wait room before my scan!

Perhaps the worry never really goes away... however, if you only have 5 weeks left, if he came now he'd be ok, maybe need to stay in the hospital for a while, but he'd be ok... so remember that.

Aw hon - im sure he is fine.

They like to scare the living cr*p out of us though dont they.

My LO went all quiet on me yesterday and evening last evening when she is usually active she was really sluggish - I was scared but she decided the middle of the night was the perfect time to give me an almighty boot in the bladder and didnt stop tap dancing in my tummy for the rest of the night.

Thank god because at my MW appt this morning my FH hadnt changed from two weeks ago so I have to have a scan tomorrow to check her growth. If she still wasnt moving much Id be a total nervous wreck as opposed to the partial nervous wreck I am at the moment.

Even though intellecutally that FH measurements are notoriously inaccurate Im still struggling not to panic.

Thank god her HB is good and her movement has come back up again or id be a sobbing heap on the floor.

Sorry - hijacked the post a bit didnt I.

The thing is they have quiet times - little devils - which frighten us - especially those of us who, having lost babies before, cant just trust that all will be well

if you are at all worried give the labour ward a ring and get checked out - stressed Mummies arent good for anyone.

I don't think the worry ever goes away - I was lucky enough to get sent for a presentation scan yesterday as MW suddenly had a panic he was breech. But he's head down and the sonographer gave him the quick once-over and even checked the cord wasn't round his neck for me.

This is the FIRST time in the entire pregnancy I have felt completely relaxed and excited instead of scared

Definitely mention to your midwife how panicked you feel - mine have been great at reassuring me

I was hoping the worry I was feeling would go away after I passed the point of my MMC. It didn't. My baby is just starting to move around a bit, but its still freaking me out, b/c somedays there isn't much of any movement at all.
