first time mom

So I have been feeling a little funny and finally took a pregnancy test yesterday after not remembering the last time I had a period. Discouraged from our miscarriage in April I doubted that it would happen again so soon after all we have been trying for over 5 years. I have been drininking alot before I found out and am nervous about anything that could be wrong from the alcohol to the fetus. This is my first pregnancy that has exceeded 7 weeks and still not sure what to think don't wanna get my hopes up for this not to actually be real! Scheduling a drs appointment this week to get some answers. Can anyone relate to my situation?

I can relate some what...I didn't drink before I found out but I have had 2 miscarriages... one at 6 weeks and one at 10 weeks. I'm now almost 11 weeks and I have another ultrasound tomorrow. We had one at 7 weeks seen and heard the heart beat and tomorrow we are hoping for the same thing...I don't think know I can endure another miscarriage. My husband will be soo destroyed so we r trying to not get excited just to be let down...I'm very scared..I take shots everyday as well for blood clots.

Don't stress too much as that will affect the pregnancy more.  As long as you quit drinking once you found out it should be ok.
