8 weeks pregnant, worried all the time

[Dominos21]

Hi everyone, I’m new here and 8 weeks pregnant (early I know) me and my partner are over the moon. Although is it normal to be very worried about every little thing. We have our early scan tomorrow and I’m dreading the worst . I also had tender breasts but noticed they’ve stopped and that’s worrying me. I’m hoping everything is ok with baby. Any replies would be greatful, thank you

It's normal to worry especially when it's your first. I was similar. But try not to let it take over your excitement and make sure you look after yourself. Congratulations on your pregnancy x

Ps symptoms come and go so try not to read into into it too much

Thank you so much

Totally normal to worry about everything. The best thing you can do is take it easy, just take care of you. Symptoms come and go so you will have varying symptoms. congratulations OP

Thank you. Glad to know it’s normal

Completely normal! The worrying continues once they are here aswell just a whole load of different things to worry about you may find it helpful to write down a list of questions for GP/midwife appts so you ask everything you want rather than forget at the time. Congratulations and hope your scan goes well

Thank you ! Appreciate the help already feeling less worried

@Dominos21 hello, I'm only 5 weeks, so really early and I feel the same way. The anxiety is real!

Wish there was a way you could have a weekly check up and reassurance they're okay in there!

Congratulations though and I hope the early scan goes well tomorrow. Keep us posted

Update - Our early scan went amazing! Baby has a very strong heartbeat and everything is perfect couldn’t be happier !

@Dominos21 that's great news and the way you're feeling is completely normal. I'm 31 weeks now and there's been something to worry about since the very start. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well.

Congratulations @smartcarnotsosmartdriver ! I guess worrying is natural, we all want perfect and healthy babies
