Hi, I've posted on Mumsnet before (but nc'd for this). I'm about 7 weeks pregnant with my second child. This time round I am really anxious, stressed and emotional.
The stakes are a bit higher this time (thought I might not be able to get pregnant this time round whereas first time it all happened really quickly and easily). Most evenings I feel anxious and convinced I'm going to lose the baby. I've been hanging onto the fact that I am really suffering with morning sickness (or all day sickness) as a sign that all is well. However today a friend told me that her friend just lost a baby at around 7-8 weeks and had no idea that anything was wrong as she'd felt all the symptoms as usual.
My anxiety is in overdrive. I can't relax,cant get excited, and I feel like I am wishing away each day which is unfair really as I have a lovely DC already and I want to enjoy her as much as possible.
Just wondered if anyone had any tips for dealing with first trimester worries? I can't switch off and feel tearful a lot of the time. Anyone else feel the same way?
