Maybe you mamas can help with my anxiety and nervousness I feel at times. 21 weeks prego, went for anatomy scan this week and all is good (minus slight dilation in baby’s kidneys). Because I had a miscarriage earlier this year at 6 weeks I’m so nervous something might go wrong with this pregnancy. No signs it has been- just the nerves. I bought a Doppler- yes I caved in- and I find myself checking way too often. How can I calm my nerves?.. Maybe I need therapy. Thoughts? Suggestions?..
