Anxiety

I know how your feeling, I had to wait till I was 14 weeks before my first scan, I was a wreck and could t enjoy it after suffering two mmc’s and not finding out till the scans. Nothing helped me tbh as always had the fear there in my mind

Had the same feelin but just have faith pray about it and trust your baby is okay Ik it’s hard but lil baby is okay just too small to hit you and move to let you know rn but when I felt like this I took a couple pregnancy test and seeing that I was still pregnant made me feel a little better cause you know at least it’s says I’m pregnant lol

totally normal. i have high functioning anxiety, so you can only begin to imagine the paranoia i had regarding everything, especially during my first pregnancy, literally thought any bit of pain or uncomfortable feeling meant the worse, like i was having an ectopic pregnancy or that i was going to miscarry 🤦🏼‍♀️ - it was really really exhausting, i had a few private scans for reassurance as my hospital only offered 3 scans for my 1st and 2 for my 2nd. but even after private scans my anxiety was still there, but just trusted that God wouldn’t put me through anything i didn’t have the strength for ❤️

Completely understand where your coming from I’ve had 3 private scans now due to anxiety

My scan is also in 13th week! I'm 11+6 today. I had a private scan one week ago, and when they said baby is looking good with a good heartbeat I nearly bawled, I didn't realise how scared I'd been. I'd had a emergency scan at 6/7 weeks due to bleeding. But I'm still nervous for my NHS scan 🤪 it feels like so much hinges on it, I've not had my bloods either yet.. what if there's something wrong! But im trying to tell myself I'm almost done with the 1st trimester and I'll never be here again with this baby, so don't take any sorrows in advance and enjoy the moment because it isn't coming back, no matter what tomorrow brings or doesn't bring 🫂

I had the same.. especially as I had spotting on and off in the first 12 weeks! I had private early reassurance scans at 6,10,11,12 weeks and then just had my NHS scan yesterday! I am now 13 weeks and baby is good! ☺️ I still have anxiety though! Evening sneezing and causing some pain down below has sent me into over drive! X

Literally me right now paid for one 2 weeks ago thought I’d have one soon as 11 weeks but won’t be until 9th June. I’m going to pay for another private one next week as I want to talk my sister but want to confirm it’s all still ok. It’s so anxiety provoking pregnancy, I had ectopic in November also so can’t stop this anxiety 😥

I had the same fears, as I had a miscarriage last time… so I had a few private scans to ease my mind. If you have the money, consider getting some private scans between the public scans offered. It really makes a massive difference for your mind seeing the heartbeat! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m sure your scan will go well, but in future ones if you are really stressing just go and get a private scan so you can relax xxx
