11 weeks pregnant and so scared

[Bex15]

I'm 11 weeks pregnant today and I had a previous miscarriage. I keep worrying constantly that I'm going to see blood or find that my baby has no heartbeat. I've had 2 scans so I know everything is okay but I just can't get rid of this fear! My OH and Mum keep telling me now I'm 11 weeks that I'm basically safe and almost at the point where the risk drops.
Pic is my 9wks+5, I know she's alright (instincts are telling me girl)

Is this feeling normal?
Anyone ever felt like this before?

Of course it's normal, so sorry about your previous MC

I expect you'll worry until baby is here but the lovelies of MN are here for hand holds and any support you need!

Congratulations, I'm getting little girl vibe too

I've had a MMC and this is my second pregnancy after 12 long and painful months to get another BFP. It's just heartbreaking that what should be an exciting time is filled with anxiety and wishing the first trimester away so the most risky period is over.

I had a scan yesterday at 6w and saw a heartbeat which was fantastic and has made me more relaxed but I have booked another for 8w (my OH thinks I'm mad) but I need it. Do what you need to ease your mind. I know I am feeling better purely by my symptoms as I had none with the first pregnancy which should have been a red flag

Yes the feeling is normal and agree with pp about trying to ease your mind. The worry never eases fully but it's best to keep yourself busy as much as you can.
I've had 4 mmc but have one 6yo DD and currently 32 weeks pregnant so I do understand those feelings very well.
Congratulations and hope the girl instinct is true! I had very strong feelings that this one was a boy from the start and it was true!

I had a misscariage previously at 7 weeks am now 27 weeks pregnant ! Is completely normal to be stressed after a misscariage ! Is such a shame really cause it does take that innocense and excitment of pregnancy away . I promise you once tou get to tour 12 weeks appoitment you will feel much better !
My first trimester was horrendous i was so anxious even thought i was constantly sick until 20 weeks ! I am still anxious to be honest but it does help that i am feeling him kick and i know he is fine in there .
Time will pass and tou will feel much better !
Wishing you a quick and easy pregnancy xx

So sorry to hear about your miscarriage. I was like that at the beginning of my pregnancy, I'm 19 weeks now and heard the heartbeat last week which is if course amazing and so reassuring. At the same time I think every mum to be will feel and think the same. Just keep thinking positive my lovely x

I'm exactly the same- 11 weeks today and all I do is worry! I have no reason to believe anything will go wrong but can't stop panicking.
I had a private scan at 9+4 and saw the little heart beat which reassured me but now I'm back to worrying.
I have my 12 week NHS scan on 14th august, wish it would hurry up! No real advice but you're not alone!

Totally normal and understandable to feel that way OP, especially after your loss.
I had two MCs last year and am 25 weeks today, and I still have moments of panic occasionally but in general the further along you go the easier it will get.

I found distracting myself and almost ignoring the fact I was pregnant helped until I was about 14-15 weeks and felt flutters and started to get a bump! I set myself a reading challenge and just read and read to stop myself focusing on my own reality too much. If books aren't your thing, maybe a really good box set or two will see you through to the second trimester!

Oh and the main thing - have a good old cry every so often! Releases the pressure. Your scan pic looks lovely, when is your 12 week scan? Good luck for it :) xx
