6 weeks and nervous!

[UnicornMummy]

Hello,

New here, Im 6 weeks pregnant and awaiting to see midwife. Im not sure why I'm so nervous, might be because this is 1st baby but I think because I dont really know whats meant to happen or what goes on the uncertainty makes me nervous.

Is this quite normal #? I feel I'm over worrying!

Thank you

Firstly - congrats!!!

Secondly- nearly all of us have felt scared and nervous because this is something new, unknown but same time exciting and worrying a bit!

Try not to worry too much (easier said than done) and think positive thoughts

Bit by bit it will start to seam more real (when side effects will kick in, after 12 week scan, and once baby will start to flutter and kick) But until then - be patient and take your folic acid and vitamins!x

congratulations .... know exactly how you feel as im 12 weeks and this is our first felt so nervous and sick to meet the midwife but was happier after as she was lovely. they just talk through everything with you like your medical history and what will happen next like booking your dating scan (my midwife did this for me ) you will be fine . you also get your notes which youtake with you and some leaflets to help with things .

hope this helpsx

Congrats !

I am 15 weeks now but oh I was a mess during my early weeks. I was so stressted , I didn't eat , I didn't sleep .. I was obsessing way too much. I really did believe that I was crazy but as it turns out many women feel this way. And I too like to be incontrol and know what's happening but pregnancy is something you just can't control. So worry is normal. I won't tell you to relax haha cause it never worked for me, I just couldn't get myself to relax . It's also cause of all those hormones . I was like that through out my first trimester . But now I feel better , and relaxed

So I hope you are better then me and do relax soon and enjoy your pregnancy like people tell you to ( honestly I don't know what to enjoy 😝) and in the mean time you have us talk to us when ever you feel like.

Good luck

Thanks Ladies

Im glad im not the only one who is a nervous wreck lol. I've calmed down a little now so thats something! I think for me I'm just feeling rough from the pregnancy, I also suffer with Fibromyalgia and im coming off of my anti depressants so the emotions and mix of all of those probably don't help!

I've got the date for my 1st scan which is mega exciting, cant wait to see my little bean (sorry bumps name) lol

Congratulations!!!! I am 10 weeks tomorrow, and I have been exactly the same. every time I feel something I am wondering if it is normal or not - things I would have completely ignored before. Nervous wreck because I want my dating scan to be here already!!

If there is such thing as overworrying, then I am also suffering!

Hiya,

I've posted an almost identical post just now ...

I found out I was pregnant on Monday and I think I'm around 5 weeks. Such a strange feeling. We have been "trying" for over a year and wanted to conceive so badly now it has I don't know what to do with myself!!

I am the most impatient person and want everything yesterday and don't know how I'm going to come. I also struggle with worries and anxieties and am trying my bet to think positive and remind myself that I've got what I wanted and the odds are in my favour.

I booked in for an early scan in a couple of weeks when I'm 8 weeks to put my mind at ease, cost £60 and well worth it to hopefully put my mind at ease! Not really got any symptoms just a bit uncomfortable with lower back ache but I haven't been sleeping properly since I found out - a mix of anxiety and excitement!

take care of yourself and try and stay positive
