Pre-eclampsia Anxiety

I had a traumatic birth with my 1st baby after a horrendous pregnancy with hyperemesis. I had pre-eclampsia and HELLP syndrome. Baby was very small and nearly lost him at one point. Scariest moment of my life. (He stopped growing at 32 weeks but consultant didnt seem bothered at 37 week scan and did nothing even though I begged for induction). He was born at 38 weeks via induction. Thankfully hes all ok and a happy 18 month old.

I'm pregnant with #2 and 16 weeks. I'm suddenly getting waves of anxiety and so worried about history repeating itself. I'm not due to see obstetrician for another 3 weeks but just scared about getting enough monitoring and baby being ok and being able to get the reassurance I need about my worries and anxiety. The midwives don't seem overly bothered about my worries and I'm scared the consultants etc understand my worries.

Has anyone else been through this and had positive outcomes? Just needing a bit of a pick me up.
