Hello ladies!
I find that I am struggling. I am now 8w6d pregnant, I've seen my little peanut's heartbeat (159! so happy). This pregnancy so far has been scary. I started out finding out during my third week, and lived in panic of a chemical pregnancy. I then began spotting at week five, and found out I had a subchorionic hematoma. Week 7, I began gushing bright red blood. That's when we saw the baby with a strong heartbeat of 159, and the bleeding stopped that day, however I spotted for another week. Now I am SIX days bleed/spotting free. We have an ultrasound on the 25th, only six more days, and I can say I am totally nervous and freaked out. I'm exhausted and my boobs hurt, but these are the only symptoms I've had. Being totally honest? I feel as if miscarriages are more common than successful pregnancies. I am a healthy 23 year old woman. We were trying, so I had been taking my prenatals before we even got pregnant, and I have been overly cautious about eating habits to a point I have annoyed my family. Every cramp I get I stress, every time I go to pee I stress I'm going to be covered in blood again. So I guess what I'm trying to say is what helps? what gives? I've been praying nonstop. Any other mama's in this boat completely? I feel so stressed out and so helpless. And I know stress is not good for the baby, and then I stress that I'm stressed. I feel like I'm going in circles. Anyone have reaffirming thoughts? I need them so bad!
