I feel the same as well.  I'm 15+4 and terrified every day that something will go wrong.  I miscarried with my last pregnancy.  So this one is considered a threatened  pregnancy.  I thought once I got to my second trimester that I would relax a little, but that thought always lurks.. . And being my first,  I never know what is normal.

Every mother feels this way at some point. I was worried in the beginning too but when i started feeling him kick at 15 weeks i started to relax bc it reminds you he or she is down there & doing fine if they're kicking you! Now at 22 weeks 6 days he kicks all the time, all day long & there's no doubt that he's ok in there. If you haven't already felt your baby move, you will soon & it will reassure you everything is ok.

I'm 22 weeks and still scared something bad is going to happen! I think its normal fears for any mother and I don't think it goes away til your finally holding your little bundle!! Then we have a whole different set of fears. When I talk about this to other moms they only tell me "welcome to motherhood" lol

Have you had a history of problems?
I havent but was also worried, i relaxed when i got to 24wks and even more at 28weeks and 30weeks. I just kept aiming for milestones.
my friend just lost her twins at 19weeks but it wasnt a misscariage it was an early labour and she had a long family history of prem labour.
try to relax, uve passed 12wks so r doing well.
