How do you know something is in there???

[Writerwannabe83]

Hello everyone,

I'm just looking for reassurance really as I fear I'm driving myself mad. I got my BFP 8 days ago (first baby) and now I am constantly worrying that something has gone wrong and that I'm no longer pregnant.

I had lots of changes to how my breasts felt at the start of last week but all those symptoms have now disappeared. I had been having some achey cramps over the weekend but they have now stopped - I don't know if that's a good thing or not. I was also urinating all the time last week but now that has slowed back down to normal again.

I hear people say that they "Just feel pregnant" and it worries me as nothing about me feels pregnant I just feel like me, although a slightly tired one.

I just can't shake this bad feeling that something has gone wrong and I'm going to miscarry.

Is this paranoia and worry normal????

I was considering an early scan because my symptoms lessened but because 2 new symptoms have suddenly appeared I feel more reassured that I am indeed pregnant

I took about 10 tests to confirm I was pregnant (over the space of 3 days) and I'm very proud of myself for not doing anymore. It has been a whole week since I POAS and even though I have recently had the urge (due to my concerns) I'm glad I haven't done it.

I'm scared I will turn myself crazy!!

I'm just going to try and be patient and wait for my first NHS scan
