How is everyone feeling?

Just wanted to see how everyone on here is doing. I'm pretty anxious. I have my first dr. appointment tomorrow, therefore I will have my first u/s. I'm pretty scared actually. With having my m/c in March its left me pretty scared about everything that has to do with pregnancy. I catch myself analyzing everything. My m/c happened totally without warning and literally a week after seeing my baby for the first time and hearing the heartbeat. I'm hoping and wishing for a different outcome this time.

Other than my anxiety and fear, I'm feeling pretty good. I've actually felt nauseous a few times which I've never experienced in my other pregnancies so I'm praying that is a good sign. I'm also extremely tired and it takes so much effort to do anything. My hubby keeps telling me I'm so moody, so I guess my mood swings are pretty evident as well. But physically I'm doing great. I hope that the rest of you are doing well also.

Great news that your first scan went well! Like you said, try and remain positive and not to stress.  Hopefully the scan on the 25th will offer more reassurance for you, and you can enjoy your trip to Disneyland!

Good luck x

Im feeling better about this pregnancy after having a wonderful ultrasound yesterday. Baby measured 7w5d with average heartbeat of 170 and we got to hear it. My due date is now 12/22 but that may change again. Morning sickness does get the best of me some days and others i feel normal. Hope everyone else is doing great!

Just came home from my first u/s. I measured 6w4d. got to see baby and hear the heartbeat. The heartbeat was 125 which the dr. said was good for this stage. I feel a little more at ease but this was exactly where I was at for my last pregnancy when I went in for the u/s and a week later my baby stopped growing and heartbeat stopped. So I guess in the back of my mind I'm afraid the same thing will happen.

We are going to Disneyland on May 28 and he said if I wanted piece of mind that I can go in before I go and he will do another u/s to make sure things are going as planned. So I go back on May 25. I'm glad that he offered this because I know he doesn't need to.

I'm going to keep my hopes up high and keep thinking great things.

Oh yeah, my due date is Dec. 30! A XMas baby.

Hi,

I am feeling the exact same way, very anxious, although I have felt a little more at ease after my first scan.  The other reassuring thing is that I feel soooo sick and have really bad headaches, something I didn't have with my last pregnancy.  I have to keep reminding myself that it is a good thing! urghh as horrible as I feel.  Best of luck with your scan, sending you lots of positive vibes.
