Hi all,

just a bit of a light hearted post.

after 2 losses, I’ve suffered with crippling anxiety in this pregnancy. I’m coming up to 23 weeks, and after spending a small fortune on early scans, I had a bit of a break. It’s true, they only reassure for the moments they’re on the screen, then bang, anxiety returns.

however last weekend I had a free scan (due to spending so much 🙈😬) so thought I’d go and check on her……

well, from the pic you can see, she’s telling me to relax and all is well.

not sure if anyone believes in signs, or angel numbers and the like, (I constantly see 00:00 or 02:02 etc on my phone when waking for the toilet) but this sign I couldn’t ignore.

maybe, maybe this is all going to be ok.

I hope any other mums to be out there who are suffering with anxiety get some respite from it, it’s been a hell of a journey, but we all deserve a piece of happiness.

all the best to everyone x

Aw I love this so much. My son is now 8 months old but after 4 losses I also had horrible anxiety around the whole pregnancy and had lots of scans with nhs and private. My nhs 15 week scan where they told me the gender I also had a thumbs up! The doctor was so happy to show us this! I took it as a sign all will be well (and it was!!). Congratulations op xxxx

Mine did this, she's my rainbow after 5 losses. We'd also not long had the all clear on the amnio after coming up high risk on screening, then worrying about low papp a every day until she arrived. I strongly felt she was giving me signs! She's 18 months now and a determined little thing.
