I feel like I am going mad and the more I try convince myself that everything is okay I get more paranoid.

My symptoms with this pregnancy are more or less non existant compared to my previous 4 pregnancies which really worries me.
My loss was a late one, identical twins who sadly had ttts and at 21 weeks it was too early for the dr's to pick up on it. I know this pregnancy is a singleton but that doesnt stop the anxiety, nothing does.

I really wanted to enjoy this pregnancy but I am so scared something is going to go wrong.

The midwife told me not to contact her she would contact me (the Dr told me to phone her when we found out I was pg again) so I feel that I have no medical support at all.

Sorry, rant over....
 
I also feel symptomless, I'm just trying to tell myself that cause I've been pregnant 4 times in a year maybe my body is immune to the affect of the hormone now? Dunno, I have seen heartbeat but still can't stop worrying. Can't really offer any advice but when I'm in my positive mood all I can say is well I'm pregnant now and have no signs that have been worrying so far so I can only assume everything is ok. Saying that I just posted this morning myself about worrying so I think it's just something that we all do after suffering a loss.

My first pregnancy before i had my mmc, i was sooo sick. Headaches, always tired, always sick.... This pregnancy is completely different. Im barley ever sick. It might be a bit too early now but maybe invest in a fetal doppler. I got one around 12 weeks and it has really eased my mind. Everytime i get a little paranoid i just grab the doppler and look for LO's heart beat =)
 
Thank You, did you start to hear the heart beat from 12 weeks?

I have thought about it but worried what OH with think...I am sure he thinks I am mad at the best times with the amount I have obsessed since we found out this one!

Yess i found the heart beat at 12 weeks. Some ladys pick it up really soon even before 10 weeks. My doppler came in the mail the exact day i had an app with my doctor and he had used the doppler for like 4 seconds, soo i had an idea of what babys heart beat sounded like. You dont want to mistake your own pulse for babys, just search on youtube to get an idea of what babys heart beat sounds like. OH likes the doppler just as much as i do. I think im a little more obsessive with it at times but he enjoys it aswell. Just lastnight when we where going to bed he asked me if we can listen when we get home from school toay.
 
Thank you... spoken to OH and he has agreed that getting a Doppler is a great idea because although the twins were 21 weeks before we lost them, he never got to hear them and he cant make midwife app etc very easily. And it would be better to pay for the reasurrance of hearing him/her than an early scan which at this stage doesnt really tell us anything.

Its deffinently worth the money.. hope your pregnancy goes well for you xo
 
ive had no symptoms all the way thro so far with this pregnancy.
 
*hugs hun* I feel the same - I don't really have any symptoms this time either (I had loads last time).

You have seen baby's heartbeat so try not to worry too much xxx
 
To the ladies who said they haven't had many symptoms - I had a quite a few up until a couple weeks ago. I just heard the heart beat again yesterday so I know all is fine and the doctor said everything looks good, but I can't shake this feeling that baby isn't developing as he/she should. I am 14weeks four days and my next ultrasound is at 20 weeks. Anyone past 14 weeks, did you feel your uterus moving up or getting bigger?
