Yeah, man, it was the longest 8 weeks of my life. Even the 2nd trimester forum is less stressful than the 1st. Are you getting an early scan at all? I had an 8 week scan and it really helped to have that to look forward to, but also because seeing a strong heartbeat at 8 weeks means the likelihood of mc is very low.
And believe me, if you hang out in 1st trimester at all, you'll become obsessed with the likelihood of mc. 2nd trimester is all "what sex are you having?" and 3rd is "when will this baby be out of me?" but first is pretty much all "is this normal or is this a mc".
Try and make yourself busy for the next 8 weeks. Take extra work hours (so long as they're not strenuous tasks) or take up a new hobby. Become obsessed and watch all 15 seasons of ER. Just anything to retain your sanity. You think I'm exaggerating, but I'm really not.
