Done worrying

Im so grateful ive been able to get pregnant Naturally again after so many issues but im so done with worrying now. Worrying the pregnancy is viable for 2 weeks straight is so draining. Worrying that my oh isnt happy about it constantly. Worrying about im not cutting down smoking fast enough. Worrying about when to go for a scan, how i get hold of midwives. Worrying something will happen still after 12 weeks, after 20 weeks, its twins....My anxiety is going through the roof.

Yep I can relate to that. I said to myself this morning “what will be will be” but it’s easier said than done. I’m so desperate to have a baby that I genuinely would be heartbroken if anything went wrong, but I know its out of my hands.
I hate anxiety!!!!! Xx

Pregnancy worry is the worst. I am 8 + 5 with my first and already I'm struggling with every decision on what to do for the best. I have symptoms of a UTI which the doctor couldn't say for sure was down to an infection or not, so prescribed me antibiotics anyway to be on the safe side. And since then I have been going round in circles on whether to risk taking the antibiotics given I may not need them, or the risk of not taking them and it turning into something worse like a blood or kidney infection. (Deciding the latter was worse so started them today).

I'm trying my best to give myself a break and say I'm just trying my best, and like Kate says "what will be will be", but that really is easier said than done. I know doctors, nurses and information on the internet is just trying to be as helpful as possible, but its so hard when you feel like every decision you make could lead to issues or complications. Wish I hadn't read so much TBH!

Im so drained and im just at the point of ive had enough of it all now. Im so glad im not alone. Im 6+2 and the last 16 days have felt like a lifetime already. Im at the point of either tears or just screaming ive had enough. This is where a gin and tonic would normally make me feel better ( not this time of the morning though of course!)

Yep- that’s exactly how I feel drained!!!
I also can’t do the things that would normally make me feel better, like a high intensity work out, or a glass of Prosecco (with a strawberry in). I’m also trying not to eat sugar (for health reasons) but what I’d give for a melt in the middle hot chocolate dessert with ice cream!!!!!
I created a post yesterday about toilet paper analysis 😂. Every time I go to the loo I’m checking and that’s what’s causing most of my anxiety x

I expect to see blood everytime too😔 i need to go for an early scan too so flapping about that, then waiting till 12 weeks, i dont know if my drs have told the midwives or if ill have to do it. I on days off atm, i work in 6 days on 4 days off in sets of 56 hours so im hoping being back at work over the weekend will take my mind off it a bit

Hey,

Wondered how you guys on this thread are doing??

So far this week I’ve worried about ectopic, my wee being dark it looks brown 🧐. The fact my boobs feel smaller and how I just don’t “feel” pregnant!

I wish I could say I was done worrying 😂
