Please keep in mind that people will always be more likely to share their horror stories than their joyful ocassions with you, esp when pregnant, others seem to want to give you all the gory details of their horrific 36hr labour with blood and meds and surgery  but very few tell you about their 2 hr labour with only gas and air. Everybody is different, just believe in yourself and stay hopeful.

I have had 3 miscarriages and 1 stillborn I only believe in prayer and faith and Jesus Christ. I'm now 35wks 2 days I'm always worried but that doesn't help anything Jesus is the King over this baby not me. Pray this prayer Our Father Who Are in Heaven give me peace, patience, strength, and most of all faith in you. I give you all the glory and praise and make you head of my life. Touch me and my little one that you have given life too plz be with us. In Jesus Name Amen Amen

I had 3 miscarriages (two were early losses) before i conceived for the fourth time. I was such a nervous wreck! I bought my own, good, doppler so that i could listen to baby's heart at will and that really helped me. I am currently 30w2d with my fourth child.

Same thing happened to me 2 months after the d&c we found out we were pregnant again, went to the doc to get the okay to start trying again. My son is now 10 yo and were 31 weeks pregnant with our 2nd. I was paranoid the 1st 4 months (especially when I had implantation bleeding). We tried for so long and with previous experience it was just scarry. Now I'm worried about things that can happen between now and baby being 6 months but I guess that's part of being a mom ur always worried. Good luck to u hope things go well. Take a minute to just enjoy being pregnant after 30 weeks its definitely not comfortable

I understand how you feel this is also my first pregnancy my last ended up in a stillbirth at 24 weeks..i was and still am scared i had nightmares most of my pregnancy about losing my baby. im 25 weeks 3 days today even though i passed the 24 weeks i cant help but worry good thing is that my baby is super active and i know shes ok. This pregnancy has been normal and good so far even though i couldnt enjoy it until 18 weeks when i went to my anatomy scan and then days later when i felt her move the 1st time There is really nothing you can do except pray and have faith.

Same here. And this pregnancy was discovered a year to the day of the last (and first) one. I didn't tell anyone this time, other than my husband, until after the second scan. I didn't get to enjoy it because I was so worried yet here I am now preparing for the imminent arrival! I had just about given up hope and feeling hopeful but at the same time scared witless is horrible. I hope you cope better than I did and don't put yourself through the same hell but instead just keep the faith, stay strong and get to enjoy all of the new sensations as they happen. I wish you all the best and I have hope for you! Much love!

The same thing happened to me. I'm at 18 weeks now. Without sounding cliche, all I can offer is positivity and prayer if you're a believer in prayers. I had morning sickness early on with this pregnancy and around 5 weeks, it went away all of a sudden which made me worry and have nightmares of miscarrying. But it came back rather strongly and my Dr ordered u/s to help ease the nerves. Think positively. I still get nervous whenever I go in for u/s. But again, I pray and trust.
