Introducing myself. :)

[amypaskins11]

Hello ladies! I'm fairly new here & thoroughly enjoy reading all the questions/answers! I figure it's time to introduce myself! I am 23 years old, happily married to an army soldier. We are both from Ohio but live in northern New York (practically Canada!) I am currently 6 weeks & 1 day pregnant! This is my second pregnancy, but we lost our first at 4 weeks almost exactly to the day (lost it on dec 19,2011, my due date then was August 22nd & my due date now is August 11) we were not trying as I was on BC. But we could not be happier about the outcome. I'm very positive about this pregnancy as my last was a chemical pregnancy & my doctors told me I have no reason to fear it happening again. With all this being said, (sorry it's so long!) how do you calm your fears? Every tiny pinch or cramp, I'm running to the bathroom to check for blood. My HCG levels have continued to go up & my first ultrasound is jan. 9th. I'm just curious how you ladies keep calm! I want my baby to be happy ;)

I look forward to making friends & worry warts like myself! Haha

Im 18 Weeks preggers and still check for blood if im having cramps lol. You jyst kinda have to accept that things happen, and as ling as you take care if yourself then if something goes wrong its nit your fault. Just take a deep breath and try to enjoy pregnancy and all uts aches and pains lol congrats and welcome!

dont worry its completely natural but things seem to work themselves out. just try and stay as relaxed and stressed free until your in the safe zone which is your second trimester.
