Thinking of you. I found it easier (to stop worrying) once baby started kicking and then I had a constant “validation” that they were there after a previous missed miscarriage. One day at a time and be gentle with yourself (I also told people early each pregnancy as I was very sick + found it helpful to have people support when it did go wrong)
@M1 : Thankyou for your kind words :) !
My next scan might just be at 20w the level 2 one, in between i have an appointment where they said i’ll see the doc & they’ll use a doppler only. The wait and having faith is something i need to learn ! 🤞🏻
I personally decided to tell a very small group of people very early on in both my pregnancies. If something happened I didn’t want to suffer in silence; I wanted to have people to support me in good and in bad. If you have a close friend or family member who could support you during the time I think that would be the most helpful thing.
Glad you had some support around 💗
My family isnt one of the most positive people so i am not too confortable as yet to talk about it but definitely have a couple of friends i can speak to. Will consider that, thank you !
I found talk therapy helped with my pregnancy anxiety and I’d really suggest it. Reminding myself what was in and out of my control helped so I just focused on rest, eating as well as I could stomach and learning about baby things I wanted to get helped. I stopped reading any pregnancy books as I felt learning what could go wrong made me more anxious.
Gentle yoga and reframing to a positive mindset as much as possible. You’re going to be an amazing mommy just based on how much you love and care for your baby already.
I told work early and told each team I joined for a case during my pregnancy as I had hyperemesis and threw up constantly. I felt being honest helped manage expectations from my team with regards to me working from home more.
I do see a therapist and cant deny that she has been very very helpful in navigating these tough waters, somedays i could vent about things my husband couldn’t comprehend.
I stopped using social media for the same reason as you mention, it made me very anxious and those algorithms are deadly 🫤.
I have been contemplating telling at work as my nausea & fatigue was awful in first trimester. There were days i felt like i was failing at work while just surviving keep food down, may be i am being too tough on myself and should open up/ask help. Thankyou for your perspective 🤍

Same as BCG2, I found a lot of relief once I could feel the baby kicking (and would sometimes even drink cold water and lay on my left side to encourage kicking).
I also told a few people early — I hadn’t for my first miscarriage but did the second time I miscarried and it was really helpful having the support of a few people I trusted from the beginning, and it was so nice to have their support during the early scary part of pregnancy. I told my parents and in-laws after the NIPT and NT scan, which for me was 12 weeks.
Some advice that really helped me was to let yourself be happy. Being scared now wouldn’t make a loss hurt less later, and you won’t get this time back. When I started to give myself permission to daydream a little about names and nursery decorations, it was really nice.
Rooting for you 💕
Thank you so much 🤗 !
I think that has been my biggest problem to let go being anxious and being happy /trusting the process. I have suddenly started looking pregnant or have become a puffy teddy bear in last couple of weeks 😂, its all overwhelming from so many angles. I just started looking for maternity friendly pants etc that has been my first step towards faith
After reading all your comments it makes me feel that letting close circle know and seek support/feel open about it is what i am not doing and might help if i do. Thankyou for the comment & sorry to hear about your losses.

I went through something similar and as excited as I wanted to get, it was often met with fear from what I experienced in my first pregnancy. I now have an amazing 6 month old. Lean on your partner and have open communication with them. Be in the moment and try and stay positive- you’re strong, your body is there for you and doing amazing things, and soon you will be changing poopy diapers and making silly noises for the sweetest smiles. Stress can only do more harm than good. I know it’s much easier said than done but find things that bring you joy. The body changes are real and will be something you may struggle with afterwards too but I always think this is what I wanted and what I prayed for. It’s a new season of life and with it will come
Lots of changes. Be open to them as your new normal. There is a lot of beauty that will come with these changes.
I finally told a close friend that i am pregnant today, like the only person other than my husband who knows it at this point. It felt good to once say it out loud, a very surreal feeling!
Trying to be positive & have faith 🤍
