12 week scan tomorrow, feeling very nervous

[Cookie_92]

Hi everyone,

I've my 12 week scan tomorrow & the more information I read on the internet, to more nervous I am getting.

Not so much about the experience its self, but what if something is wrong with Baby? So many ladies only find out at the scan that Baby hasn't made it, what an awful thing to go through.

What advise can ladies who've been in the same boat as me advise?!

I haven’t had any bleeding, pains or achy boobs, the only thing that has changed is my morning sickness has calmed down loads.

I know I am in for an awful nights sleep.

Thank you so much in advance.

It's so hard not to be anxious, but step away from Google!! You've got no reason to believe anything's wrong and chances are it's all fine. I hope it is and you have a lovely time seeing your baby in there starting to look like a little person xxx

Try not to worry as it only means you potentially suffer twice, once before there is anything to worry about and then again if there is!

It’s perfectly normal and understandable to have some concerns but google is not your friend in this instance. Try doing some mindfulness exercises to manage any stress, that’ll do you and baby more good than feeling anxious.

I hope you have a wonderful experience at your scan.

(Btw, you’ll likely feel just as nervous before each of your other scans, but once you start feeling baby move it’s very reassuring).

Hope your scan was amazing.

Hi everyone and thank you for your comments. Unfortunately Baby has passed away, i’ve another scan next Friday to confirm for sure, then arrange to have Baby removed. Heartbroken is an understatement

Oh no...I’m really so sad and sorry to hear that. I can’t imagine what you’re going through, but as I sit here right now my heart truly goes out to you. I wish I had the right words, but more than that I hope you have so much love and support around you so that you don’t feel alone. Take all the time to grieve and in doing so I hope you find comfort and peace in the process. The biggest and warmest hugs to you...x

So so sorry for your loss. I went through the same last year and it’s indescribable I had the D&C. It’s taken me a long time to come to terms with it but I’m now expecting again and already dreading the scan.

If you need any support, just message. Lots of love and hugs x
