I had/ still kind of have the same problem. It's so hard to think positive when you know the risk and high of a chance it is. What helped me was my fiancée & going to my first baby appointment.  He would be on me about stressing out and being worried. And it's really true. Enjoy every pregnant moment you have, stressing isn't good for the baby but it's better to know you we're happy and did your part to keep your little one healthy.

To be honest stressing isn't going to make it better. Just relax and at the first sign of anything unusual calk your dr, most important be healthy as possible.

Don't believe everything you hear. Stress is a silent killer and stressing yourself from things you've heard will do more damage than anything else. Your baby will be fine. Just continue to eat healthy and make wise decisions and your baby will be just fine. Just made sure you eat right and take your vitamins

Take it from me, the stress is not worth it. Let nature take its course. All you can do is take your vitamins, keep yourself healthy and stay away from foods you shouldn't eat.

Everyone made fun of me in my first pregnancy for not eating any seafood even if doc said it was ok, and researching everything before I out it in me. I lost my first baby, but I know in my heart I did anything and everything possible to avoid it being because of something preventable. As a mom that is the best thing you can do. I'm 7 months with my second baby and everything has been going great so far.

Relax and enjoy the wild ride your peanut will out you through in the first trimester. The first one is hard, even harder the first time your pregnant so don't worry about what its...just take care of the baby now and cherish all the changes you make as a mom in order to provide for your baby. Motherhood begins in pregnancy and I love how I had to make all these big life choices just to ensure my babies got the best care and nutrition. They could get from me.

Congrats on your baby (: your going to be a great mom because only great moms think the way you're already thinking (:
