I am worried :(

[9char_maine4]

I have posted a couple other times but this time its about my fears. I am scared that there will be no heart beat when I go for my ultrasound this friday, that something  going to go wrong. I am worried and scared and depressed I dont know what do my appointment with my doctor isnt until the week after my ultrasound same with my blood tests. This is my first ultrasound and my second doctors appointment , is it weird that my doctor waited so long shes know since I.was six weeks I am 10 now and will be 11 when I go for my ultrasound. I am ftm and really scared.

Its normal bc yhu really knt hear a  heartbeat until 8-10wks. Im a ftm also, you wont hve a doctor appt but once a month & ultrasound evry trimester unless you are hvin problems. Evry appt you will gt 2 hear the heartbeat : ) I hvnt had any stress abt sumthng being or goin wrong jus being sumbody mommy......Im 21wks & 3days nd my son maks his presence made by kickn all the time its a great feeling. Im sure wen yhu start showin your bf will realize its a baby n there :-)

I just had my 1st ultrasound wednesday, I was 11w3d and I was scared & nervous too but our lil baby was there with a lively heartbeat && he (or she) waved at us it was the most amazing thing! Everything will be FINE!!! :D just keep your head up an don't worry girl :)

My doctor said my second trimester started at 13 weeks, and so does this app. But some people say 14.

[9char_maine4]

I cant wait to feel it move and when does the second trimester start? ive heard many different things. I think my boyfriend it more excited about making it that far then I am :)

[9char_maine4]

Thanks for the idea lol ya wouldnt be much fun buying one and than not hear nothing. When I went to my family doctor she tried but I was only 9 weeks and she said that it was only the size of a peanut and still under my pelvic bone. I didnt know it started that low lol.

[9char_maine4]

Thank you :) and I really hope that it goes well I am happy that you ate doing good :) that would be amazing to hear and see, I cant wait!

It's normal don't stress :-) I think we all go through the same thing. Once you feel your baby moving on a regular basis it takes a lot of that fear and anxiety away. Just try to relax and enjoy your pregnancy. You're almost to your second trimester which critically reduces your chances for a miscarriage.

[acline93]

I wouldn't buy a home doppler until you're at least 14 weeks, because many times they don't pick up the heartbeat because the baby is so small, and it would stress you out more if you couldn't find the heartbeat. I'm 13w4d and still can't find the heartbeat by myself on my personal doppler, but they can find it on the ultrasound doppler and on the one that my nurse uses. I know it's very stressful, and slight pains and cramps here and there are normal, as long as you're not bleeding :) good luck!

I was the exact same way and we are close in weeks, I went in for my ultrasound this past Friday at 10wks 6days and everything was great! Heartbeat was strong and it was in there moving around having a lil party lol. So basically don't stress yourself out relax and enjoy :) let us know how it goes

[Breanna_s31913]

My doctors waited till I was 12 weeks its completely normal I'm a ftm and I had an ectopic before this pregnancy I was really freaked out they made me wait but it's fine don't stress it's not good for you just think positive thoughts!!!

[9char_maine4]

I will look into getting one :) thats a good idea I didnt know you could buy them :) my boyfriend cant come with me so it would be good for him to be able to hear it maybe he will finally clue in that its reality because he doesnt pay much attention because im so early hes just as scared and nervous as I am. thank you :)

[9char_maine4]

Thanks guys :) it is hard I mean I waited three weeks t see my doctor the first time and was waiting two weeks for my ultrasound its hard. And I am still having my symptoms but my morningsickness has cut back because I was missing alot of school so the doctor put me on a percription for it. And no lowerback pain or nothing serious but when I lay on my back I get really sharp pains in my lung area by my shoulder blade but only on the righ side if I lay in my belly or my left side it goes away after a couple min. should I worry about that?

For the first 6-7 months you will only go once a month! It's totally normal to be worried. I have a 19month old and I am 4 weeks now with out 2nd. I am more worried this time around. Be prepared for that to last throughout the pregnancy... Then though childhood and so on! It's called being a good mom! Just try your best to stay calm for the baby. They even sell mini heart beat monitors for prenatal at home! Maybe around $20. I think summer's infant makes it. Keep calm though.

[khamilah21]

Everything is going to be fine. I was the same way when i around 9 weeks. Im 18 weeks and 5 days now and my baby is healthy.  I think thats every pregnant women nightmare . It will go away.  Just stay calm and stress free :) Everything will work out

[butterflybaby28]

No its not weird that doctor waited most doctors wont see you unroll atleast 8 weeks and some do wait until after or very close to your 2nd trimester just bc the risk for miscarriage is higher in the 1st trimester. I know its hard to wait but they do it bc they feel its easier on the mom if they do miscarry to not see an ultasound. I don't feel its easier either way you look at it a loss is still a loss and is very hard. However, if you are still having symptoms and haven't had, bleeding, cramping or back pain everything is still probably going good and strong for you. Just relax and look forward to your ultrasound. I know that's easier said than done :)

[KailynEmily]

I am having my first u/s in two weeks and I have the same fears.. I think every woman does! And usually the wait until your over 10 weeks so they can accurately measure baby and hear the heart beat clearly.

[Phatz88]

Nope doesn't seem weird I was almost 10wks before my first appt. But they thought I was actually less. I am actually measuring bigger. But don't worry your baby will be fine. Don't stress too much. I was the same exact way i am now 17 wks and it was awhile before i actually got to see the doctor again for my second trimester screening. I was worried too ftm mom as well. But I felt the little flutters every now and then so it put my mind at ease. I just think its natural to worry
