Major Anxiety

[sweetcheeks2930]

In need of some positive energy.  I'm 7 weeks today and my first appointment is on Friday. I miscarried in april and I keep having flashbacks of seeing my baby on ultrasound and being told the heart is no longer beating. I'm scared to death that I'm going to lose this one too. Just trying to keep myself together. My anxiety is through the roof.

Hey hun! I just lost my first baby at 4wks this April and I'm now 7wks also (: this morning I spotted after having sex last night and I was scared as hell! I had an appt this Friday but I called my doc to see if I could come in to make sure everything was ok. I went in and I got an ultrasound and I got to see the baby and hear it's heart beat for the first time!!!! I'm heart is so full and I'm beyond excited! I feel for you and my best wishes go out to you! Please let me know how your appt go's

Such a hard thing to go through isn't it? And I bet the ultrasound feels like its months away. That feeling of dread will never leave, but all you can do I guess is distract yourself from it. Each pregnancy is unique and fragile, nobody can say that it won't happen again, statistics show that 1 in 6 pregnancies end in miscarriage before 12 weeks, however if you let that control you it will take over your life. Breathe deep and think this is a different story, a different path, a different child.
