Anxiety
How’s everyone coping with the first trimester anxiety?
I’m 9 weeks after 4 failed IVF rounds and a previous loss and my anxiety is so high! I know I wouldn’t be able to feel much at 9 weeks but I thought there’d at least be stretching or some kind of sensations down there but it all seems so quiet! Just constantly worried something bad has happened. How are we all managing the fear?!

I found that having scans helped to see the heart beat and that it’s growing and every couple of days I look on the miscarriage odds reassurer to see how far I’ve come from the initial miscarriage rate of about 1 in 4 pregnancies 😂 https://datayze.com/miscarriage-reassurer
I’m 8+1 after two miscarriages. Don’t really have any advice other than I know exactly how you feel. I’m so worried and constantly second guessing everything.
Anxious girlie here too! 👋🏽
I’ve paid for 2 private scans so far, one at 6 weeks and one today at 8 weeks. It’s the only thing that helps the anxiety for me, especially as I’ve been spotting and having some light bleeding x

Pregnant again at 35 😅
We have two babies currently 9 and 2.5. We decided to try for another and somehow it only took one try and it worked lol. I’m still praying for a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby. My last pregnancy I had preeclampsia and he was born 6w early, but I was at least 60 pounds heavier at the START of my pregnancy so I’m hoping being healthier this time around will help. I’ve taken 3 tests, they’ve all been positive. I’m very excited but ugh I’m soooo olddddd

Anyone have positive stories of a planned c sections after emergency?
I had my first child when I was 29 I’m now 37 with my 2nd and really worried about the birth.
I had a really easy pregnancy with my first child no symptoms but a really hard labour that ended in emergency c section and lost 2litres of blood … this one I have been so ill first trimester I’m now in second trimester and really freaking out about the birth. I didn’t realise I was even scarred from my last birth until I got pregnant I’m having a planned c section.
Any positive stories of emergency and then planned? Or similar situations

Baby dropped at 34 weeks
This is a question more for the moms who have had a baby before I guess. Recently had a growth scan because my belly started measuring two weeks behind. Turns out he is just engaged in my pelvis which skewed the measurement... which I could have told them based on all the pressure lol. They said it doesn't mean he's coming super early or anything, but then I've also read that they tend to come 2 to 4 weeks after dropping. And he has felt this low since about 32 weeks. Im due Oct 15 and hoping to go all the way, so just wondering if any moms remember their babies staying dropped for several weeks?

Anything?
I'm obviously going to keep testing, but I keep thinking I can see a second line on both, then I change my mind again!
