Keep calm and try not to think about it. Chances are that everything will be fine :)

I was exactly the same and the laminate they gave me didn't help as it all sounds so serious - which of course it is!
Try and stay calm, and know the odds are on your side - I wasn't feeling baby at 20 weeks so that is a great comfort to you.

Chances are everything is great and you will have over the moon :) Good Luck :)

Mine is next Tuesday and I can't wait for it. I'm more excited than I was for the first one ( I was just petrified then) but still very nervous. Think I have had a bit of movement but not totally sure.

Good luck!!

I felt like that too ! I wasn't a bit excited...just full of anxiety before the 20 week scan. Then baby wouldn't play ball at the scan and kept hiding his face so I had to go back for a second scan. My partner was so excited by his little boy after the first 20 week one (and also the fact we would get to see him again at a further follow up scan)...but this just left me with further anxiety for the following week !
All was fine at the follow up 20 week scan and when I knew everything was fine, I felt more blessed that I had experienced 2 opportunities to see him.
Don't worry - I think your feelings are quite normal !
