Hi all,
I found out I was pregnant last week! Veryyy shocked but happy Smile but I already suffer with anxiety alot and I am so so anxious with this pregnancy. Ive got 2 children and wasn't like this with them (didn't really suffer with anxiety then though tbh) they're 12 & 10 now.

But im literally worrying none stop, about everything and anything! I think im only around 6/7 weeks. I haven't even booked in and told Dr yet as I'm worried even for that and I honestly dont even know why Confused

I dont really have any symptoms, i was spotting brownish stuff (if tmi sorry) last week for 1-2 days which is what made me take a test on the 2nd day and had sore nipples but only for around 1hr one morning, other than that I feel completely fine, a little more tired than usual maybe. Is this all normal?

Any one else feeling like this or symptoms like mine? Xx

Hey @JenniferWaul congratulations on your pregnancy! I'm sorry you're feeling anxious. I don't know what the answer is because I'm just the same.

I'm super early and sadly think my bfp is gonna be a chemical. I had one last month, and a miscarriage last year so feeling really flat and super anxious. I just can't sleep!

I really hope your pregnancy progresses smoothly and hope you find a way to relax into it. (If you do, please let me know the secret!!)
