Anxious Mama

I’m 7 weeks tomorrow. Anyone else really struggling with anxiety? I’m constantly worrying about food I can eat, second guessing my symptoms, whether everything is okay. I feel like I’m in limbo waiting for 12 weeks to know that everything is okay with the baby. Do I get an early scan for reassurance?

I am 8weeks3days and already had two reassurance scans.. for me they do help and it’s great to see baby too, even if there isn’t that much to see!

I’m the same, I think around 6+5 and have an early scan tomorrow. It’s just a constant spiral of anxiety I couldn’t do another month of it x
