I am driving myself mad !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vixta]

I am slowly driving myself mad! You see, every half an hour i am going to the toilet to check my knickers and have a wipe to see if i am bleeding! I feel as if i'm obsessed and i can't stop doing it!I am in my third pregnancy and i have never had complications with my previous pregnancies so i just dont know why i keep doing this! Do any of you do these mad things? Or am i alone on this one

 

[amyw044]

this is my second pregnancy and im constanlty doin it! i cant help myself. i no i shouldnt but i keep on doin it xx

 

[vixta]

i feel like a flaming lunatic! there is hope for us yet eh lol x

 

[socophoenix]

i was that way the first few day after i found out, this is my1st. i know MC is always a possibility, but honestly it doesnt even cross my mind to check. i try not to focus on ANYTHING negative right now, as far as im concerned, this beans here to stay! (knock wood)

 

[vixta]

I am trying to get to the same place you are, to tell myself that everything will be fine, be positive!
BUT ..... i bet i still do the toilet check every half an hour!!!!

 

[BBonBoard]

i think we all do this.

 

[bexxie]

My third and I am doing this too. I have bad lower back pain at mo so what am I like? Thnking worse. we will all be fine I am sure of it
xx

 

[Jemma_x]

I used to do this all time

 

[Akira]

I do this too! I keep getting cramps so get really nervous. Every cramp has me thinking "Hear we go...baby is gone" its horrible

 

[saffy1978]

Akira.. I've just noticed that you're 6 weeks and 6 days preggo. The same as me. Yet my due date is 23rd April and yours is 28th? Did your scan tell you otherwise? I'm a bit confused now as to how far I am.

 

[jaccib]

I am not obsessing to that point but everytime I go I expect to see blood!!!

 

[vixta]

we are so newly pregnant its very early days so we expect the worst! Once we reach the 12 week mark we will all relax and take a breather... but dont the days grag now girls? The days go on forever and ever now i am pregnant !

They certainly do roll on 12 weeks.....mind you I am busy packing to move....so trying to keep busy and not sit on BnB all day obsessing!!!!

 

[AFC84]

I always check too....and last night I dreamt that there was blood there...horrible!

 

[555ann555]

I try to convince myself that every cramp is it digging in a little deeper or getting itself some room for later!

I do still check every time I pee though!

 

[vixta]

I try to tell myself that too, with every little cramp its just little one burrowing in a bit further. My cramps have eased off now though and i have no sane reason to keep checking i am bleeding but i guess we as mothers to be have that instinct to be protective and we will just do these things wont we!! i cant believe i am 6 weeks tommorrow, half way through the first tri xxx

 

[Fingerslocked]

I used to check because I had a previous MC. However after hearing the heartbeat and being reassured that everything is fine I am much more relaxed. I still check when I pee but I don't run to check. Hang in there... it gets better---and the time does start to go faster once you are more relaxed. I am counting the days until 12 weeks.... 6 more days to go!!

 

[vixta]

i have cut myself down to just checking everytime i go pee now, instead of going to check even if i didnt need to go! I am getting better xx

 

[punch]

i do it constantly... but i bled and lost two pregnancies this year.

i have to stop though, there's no good that can come from seeing it... it's not like i WON'T freak out and there may be no cause to do so.

 

[Nicki2202]

I do it constantly. This is due to 2 prev m/c though. I have had a little spotting with this one too which is very worrying. I am going for an early scan on Tuesday. It will be a relief to know either way what is going on.
