Hoping and wishing, but having problems believing...

Hi everyone.  I'm 6 weeks today. Two years ago I had a missed abortion (no embryo, had to be surgically removed) we have an appointment at the doctor tomorrow to get an early ultrasound... I'm really not looking forward to it, I'm terrified the same thing will happen again...I really want to be happy about this pregnancy, we have tried for 5 years, but the only feeling I have is fear, fear of having to go to the same terrible thing again. Just had to get it of my chest...

Fear is common but just as everyone else has stated this is in Gods hands.  I had an ectopic pregnancy in dec 2011. I lost my right tube and ovary almost my life.  I am 6 weeks today and will be going in for my 3rd ultra sound in 2 days.  Talk to your caregiver as they will keep you calm.  Mine has done wonderful knowing that I'm scared to death of what could happen.  It's an emotional roller coaster hang in there and keep your chin up!!

I know exactly how you feel. Had first miscarriage March of 2010 second December 2010 third March 2012. I am now pregnant again. 6 weeks exactly as of today. I'm both scared and excited :/ . I know exactly, exactly how you feel. And my first doctor appt is still a week and a half away. i'm just hoping everything is ok this time. its like every time i go to the bathroom i keep wiping and wiping for the slightest sign of blood. i keep checking my breasts to see if they are still sore or tender. and so far everything is one. but its like my previous experiences are holding me back for enjoying this pregnancy. keep in touch. hope everything works out for you.

I understand your fear.... How about trying for 9yrs and never ever been pregnant once. So my words to u are. Do not let the enemy(satan) run u by making u afraid. God hasn't given us the spirit of fear. So continue to be hopeful and believe God that all is well. Stress is not good for you or baby... So make this a stress free pregnancy. I hope I have helped. Believe me I know it's a lot easier said than done but just try it. I have been married 12 yrs and feel like less that a woman every time I get a negative result, so hang in there. The word says God doesn't  put more on us than we can bear so u are stronger than u give yourself credit for. Keep your head up and I pray with you that u have a great visit tomorrow!!!! Keep me posted......;-)

I totally know how you feel. About 8 months ago I had a missed abortion and I am about 6 weeks as well. I had a really hard time in the beginning and I'm still struggling with it but I have to just give it all to God. If something is going to go wrong then there's nothing I can do to prevent it. Worrying will only make things worse. I know that's easier said than done. I pray that God gives you peace and understanding in this difficult time. Let us know how it goes tomorrow.
