Nervous Nelly Syndrome

[nikko*ttc]

Okay, so we are getting ready to reach the anniversary of the number of weeks I was when I miscarried this last time (11 wks, I am currently 10 weeks 1 day). I know the doc has reassured me that everything is okay, but I just can't help getting nervous. I am due for my next appointment on the 30th, can't wait. In the meantime, I am trying not to drive myself insane, but I am not sure that it is working. I am even having a hard time concentrating on work and minor stuff that I really enjoy doing like reading. Every little nuance is like a soap opera to me lots of drama with no punch line. I really hope that after this next ultrasound, I can finally start to enjoy this pregnancy.

I'm so sorry your anxious. Try everything you can to calm down. A warm bath (not HOT) with candles around and maybe some insense... stuff like that.

I hope things work out and be confident that your little one will make it!

I understand your anxiety... it *****!! I felt the same way when I approached the "anniversary" of the day we lost our first baby and it's difficult to deal with. There is no way to speed up time; the only thing you can do is stay busy and stay positive. I emursed myself in work and did projects around the house to keep my mind on other things. Before I knew it, the day had come and gone.... and the same will go for you. Do your best to stay optomistic. Talk w/someone you trust about how you feel when it feels like too much to bear. Recurrent miscarriages are rare, and the chances of you having a healthy pregnancy and baby are very good! Believe your doctor when they say everything is well. I wish you the very, very best!!
