How to get over fear?

It's taken me a long time to get pregnant to the point my husband and I have started down the adoption road when lo and behold I have a positive hpt this past Saturday!
So over the moon we told our parents (who knew of our struggles)  right away.
Now I'm terrified that I'll miscarriage.  I'm trying to be positive and enjoy but after so long I feel like it's too good to be true!
Any support over these fears or how you've coped is much appreciated.

My only advice is trust in god that he will make the best descion for you. I've been so nervous since the beginning cause I was told I'd never get pregnant and I'm so worried to lose my chance. Everything is nerve racking wwith pregnancy, the only comfort I can find is in god. We will get through it ladies!!

I am in the same boat.  After months of trying then failed invitro after failed invitro finally I am pregnant.   A year ago I miscarried so I am super worried.  The best advice I can givr is try to enjoy it, stress will only increase the odds of something happening.

I understand your fears I have miscarried before and have them time to time too. I just remember that the miscarriage was going to happen no matter what I did. Most times its for the best because something is wrong with the egg or the sperm. I don't want my fear to get the best of me and I just keep remembering that lots of woman who have had problems in the past go on to have healthy babies. Stop worrying because no matter how much u worry its not going to change the outcome of what's going to happen with this baby because its already determined. Sticky baby dust to you!!! I will keep u In my prayers.
