6 weeks today!

Hey ladies, I'm 6 weeks today but I'm full of anxiety! I'm trying to just stay chill because I know that most things are out of my control. I know that symptoms vary massively but I just can't rest my mind! I've booked in for an early scan on Sunday, I'll be 6+5. I wanted to wait until I was 7 weeks but the anxiety is too much!
Send me luck!!

I am the same, I’m 6 weeks on Thursday and counting the days until I can see my little ones heart beat. I feel so anxious reading all the things on line. Sending lots of luck to you 💕

@Emily it's just so horrible not knowing whats right and what isn't...and just not knowing if everything is going to go how it should! Thank you, and I hope all goes well for you xx

I’m the same! I’m 5 weeks tomorrow and I can’t wait to be able to have an early scan & see everything is ok 🤞🏽 Stay positive xxx

I feel exactly the same, I am 6 weeks and 6 days and booked a scan for Sunday. I feel so nervous, first baby 😌
Good luck xxx

I am in the same boat. This is my first baby and I’m soooo nervous. I cannot wait for my first appointment to put my mind at ease. Congratulations everyone!

how did it go? :-) 🫶🏻

Anxiety

I’m 10 weeks and I have had so much anxiety probably for the last 2-3 weeks I already deal with anxiety but it was a tad bit easier shaking it off when I wasn’t pregnant.. I am on medication but doesn’t seem to be doing much tbh— I see a lot of yall say it’s a first trimester thing but this is my 3rd baby and I don’t remember being this anxious especially bc sometimes I’m just laying and heart rate reaches the the 120s am I the only one? Please help with suggestions. I don’t want to feel like this.. I know pregnancy is hard but fudge this makes it’s harder 😔😔😔

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

So ready for second trimester 🥲

I really really hate the first trimester. It’s exhausting, no appetite, not enough hours to get the amount of sleep I need, headaches, smell sensitivity, and overall just feeling like crap! And I don’t want to announce anything until 14 weeks since I’ve had losses before, and it’s getting really hard to hide it from my friends. Two more weeks to go….

Just needed to vent to others who understand!

39 weeks pregnant FTM

39 weeks baby hasn’t come yet and I am just full of anxiety. I am trying to relax. I am trying to chill, but I can’t chill. I do not want to be induced. I would love to have her natural. Issue is I am tight down there and petite and baby is measuring big like the head especially. I know that measurements can be off. But I have photos! And she is a chunk. This is so unpredictable. How do I just put my faith forward and trust in God and how do I let go of this anxiety? I am doing fine and then boom it hits me and I want to ball my eyes out. I am trying to treat myself and do little things but driving or doing anything is so hard now and I’m so huge and uncomfortable …I’m at my breaking point 😭

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.
