5+2 really anxious

I am 5+2 with my first pregnancy, it was a complete shock as we had nearly been trying for a year and I was starting to think there was something wrong.
I don’t really have any symptoms apart from sore boobs that come and go day to day (can’t stop prodding them to check they still hurt a little!)
I just can’t seem to relax and enjoy it, I’m terrified of losing this baby.
We have our first scan next week at 6+5, I’m hoping that will reassure me a little.
Does anyone else feel like this? Feel like I’m going crazy! X

I understand, but try to remind yourself that- the odds are well and truly on your side! X

I get you totally I am 5+1 . In complete shock too after trying for a year ! . I am so nervous and anxious that there is going to be something wrong . My boobs are the same on and off . I have hardly any nausea either x

I feel the exact same! I never realised it would be this stressful! I feel better knowing that, I had quite a few symptoms on the day of my BFP but nothing apart from sore boobs on and off since - I keep telling myself maybe it’s my body getting used to the hormones x x

yeah you are right! I just keep thinking the worst x

No I didn’t either ! It’s so stressful . Even to the point am trying to do everything right with what I can eat etc . To give it the best chance . Yeah I heard light cramping what I have had is normal . I am probably urinating more so I am looking at that as a good sign x

stop your negative thoughts now! As soon as you only focus on the positives, your mindset will change, you’ll feel like a different person and you’ll manifest what you want. X

3/5 of my pregnancies I’ve had absolutely no symptoms at all. Tired, maybe a little hungry but that’s it.

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃
