Hi all. Apologies for the minor meltdown that is about to ensue, it has been brewing for the past couple of days…
I found out I was pregnant last Friday. The tests were strong lines and came up straight away. I did five in total over the course of the weekend Going by LMP this would make me 6 weeks.
I feel like I have had two days of excitement and am gradually becoming more and more worried... All I can think of is that something will go wrong. I don’t feel like my symptoms are strong (slight period style cramps, sore boobs and occasional nausea) and thanks to Dr Google am now worried that this means the pregnancy isn’t strong enough.
I have only told two people; my best friend who lives in Australia and is a bit of a traveller/loner so whilst being happy for me not really that bothered and a work colleague who is 17 weeks. What is really freaking me out is that she told me ANOTHER girl in our team is also PG, about 8 weeks. I am now convinced that out of the three of us something will go wrong and that it will be me. It took me so long to get a BFP and during that time I struggled with so many baby bombs, that I am now petrified of something going wrong and of having to then with two pregnant women.
I know of all this may be irrational and I know odds are probably in my favour…but I am so anxious and worried. I don’t want to look at nice baby things as I am scared I will jinx it and the Internet seems to be awash with negative stats. I feel like the whole time I was trying I worried I was infertile… Now I am still worrying and just want to enjoy this time! I have no idea how I am going to get through the next six weeks!
