special scan at 16wks tomorrow and Im scared

[looloo13]

Hi Im pregnant with my 7th baby, I have 3 wonderful children, 2 boys aged 18 and 16 and little girl whos 11. Ive had 2 miscarriages and lost a daughter with spinal bifida at 22weeks. This pregnancy is mine and my husbands 1st together and my 1st since I had a huge blood clot after c-section with my daughter which I spent a month in hospital without my baby. Ive had lots of scares and injections everyday and had 4 scans already which have all been positive, I have my last special scan tomorrow and now xmas is all over and hubby back at work its suddenly hit me and Im so scared. Hubby thinks if this goes ok then Ill suddenly stop being so paranoid but I know Ill just start thinking the worse about something else. really want to enjoy being pregnant and stop being so scared

Hello looloo, you sound very scared :( I have to say I think I would be too in your place. Men are sometimes completely not with it when it comes to worrying over things like this, and think that as soon as you have a scan you shouldn't give it another thought until the baby is here, but we all know it doesn't work like that, even in the smoothest of pregnancies!! He won't have seen what you saw with the other pgs either so probably doesn't appreciate how awful it was and why you are so worried, i think unless you have been there you really don't know how truly awful loss is.

Have you got someone to go with you for your scan? x

You have been through so much, its fine to be scared . Sorry to hear about your losses.

I lost my baby boy at 23 weeks in April, worst experience possible.
Then had 2 early MC's in August and a week ago. So I kidda know what your going through.

Have you got anyone to go with you? My fingers are crossed!

Congratulations, I hope this pregnancy g9es well

yes my husband is coming, he had been amazing and dont want to make him out to be insensitive its just as you say he hasnt experienced any loss as this is his 1st experience. Ive been up all night and bless him he has too trying to keep me calm. glad I can come on here and say how I feel as other people just dont get it. thank you both for taking the time to answer xx

I hope it goes okay for you. Sorry you have been through so much.
