Hi -
I am currently 11 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I am a first time Mom who has been trying for 2 years and it finally happened.
I wanted to get advice on how to deal with anxiety and negative thoughts. I find that the past two weeks my mind goes crazy and I am scared something is going to happen to the baby (not going to be there anymore, malformations, ect) My mind thinks of everything.
I want to stay positive the whole time, but it took us so long and we had so many negative experiences on trying that I think I am in shock a bit and is having a hard time believing this is true.
I had an ultrasound last Friday at 10 weeks 5 days, and the baby looked great. Both saw and heard the heartbeat. And I go in for my 12 week apt next week. I keep trying to remind myself that the baby looked good and that everything is out of my control
Just wanted to know if other first time mommies have experienced this and how they handeled it
Also, is it normal for pregnancy symptons, like morning sickness, to start getting better around week 11?
And my belly seems to change, at night its seems big and in the morning back to normal (well smaller bump).. Could this just be bloating at night? Why does that happen?
Thank you
