Pregnancy is a very hard time for us ladies, and we always think the worse.
I've been thinking about posting this for days after all the posts I have writen, and all the posts I have read.
We all worry too much, instead of stepping back and thinking. And to be honest, ill prob post up a worried post again ha ha ha.

Lack of symptoms - we all worry about this, symptoms slowing off, disappearing or not being as bad as the next person. We automatically assume the worst.... But think about it. Miscarriages are usually paired with other symtoms, that would show before your sickness etc died off. Hormones dont just disappear, and that's the main thing making pregnant ladies feel ill.
I have had miscarriages before, and I had pain, bleeding then a loss of symptoms when my hormones levels started to drop.
Missed miscarriages only happen in 1% of miscarriages and also, these normally result in the baby passing within the VERY early days, even before a heartbeat would of been detected, so all you ladies who have seen a heartbeat then gone on to going a few days with no pregnancy symptoms chances are its normal as your hormones go up and down giving you a break here and there.

Not many women actually go full time with symptoms, its more common to have breaks than constantly feel ill.

Brown spotting - I can't totally back this up... But yes, I have had miscarriages that started with brown spotting, BUT it was constant.
This pregnancy has gotten a lot further than my others, and I have never made it past seeing a yolk sac, but this time there is a hb and bean.... And guess what..... For the first 4 weeks when I went to the toilet I had brown spotting.

Breast tenderness - I only know from reading about this, but its like the sickness etc.... It comes and goes. The hormone increase makes them sore, at the beginning the hurt but most women find it eases off until milk starts to be produced.

Basically, I know I need to calm down more.... Read the facts and other peoples experiences and not assume the worst before actually thinking.

Hope this doesn't anger anyone xxx
 
Very true - thing is, a lot of people who will post on here do so because they're worried, so it gives a skewed view of things iykwim!
