Idk how to feel about this pregnancy, it took us sooooo long to get pregnant (10 yrs) and i am…

Yep normal. We lost our first pregnancy to miscarriage, and really didn’t start feeling ok until about my 16 week appointment. We waited until after the anatomy scan to announce it on our social media, and tell whoever else didn’t know at that point.

@penelope127 I just feel horrible because i always imagined if we got pregnant it would be the best feeling ever don't get me wrong seeing that bfp was the greatest feeling but after seeing the heartbeat it sank in like dam there is a human in there,i never thought I'd be overwhelmed with the fear of something happening. Im Also srry about your loss really couldn't imagine

@mnturdburgler, I think it’s a normal feeling to have. Your in still the unknowns of pregnancy, and I know I was on pins and needles until the second trimester. I just tried to remain positive.

Thank you for that.

That is 100% normal. I miscarried before I had my first son and I really didn't think I could even have children. When I got pregnant with him I was a total wreck or just ignoring it, didn't want to talk about it, even well after 12wks when they say you're "safe now"... Probably about 16wks for me too. I still even felt the same kinda with this baby, even though my first born is happy and healthy. I would say it's okay to feel that way and sorta ignore it until after 12wks, and not to want to tell anyone. But don't ignore to the point where you do too much or don't take your prenatals. Start taking prenatal and folic acid, drink a lot of water. Maybe find a hobby and take your mind off it until you can feel better about baby. Also, congratulations 👏❤

I love my little one to death but I’m also somewhat detached because I’m so afraid of something going wrong 😩. Pretty normal I would say.

Definitely normal Hun. It's terrifying when you've struggled so much. I have never "connected" with baby during pregnancy because of the fear I have of losing baby. It's a self preservation type of thing. I never feel safe until I am holding baby in my arms. Set little goals for yourself and treat yourself to something special when you reach them during this pregnancy. Pamper yourself and take care of you the best way you can. And know you're not alone! 💙💗

10yrs?? why? I got pregnant the first try

@brittanymhestehave I don't no why it took so long I never went to the drs for fear of finding something bad out . Your a lucky one to get pregnant the first try

@mnturdburgler, same here i fear the doctor too i have hypocandria meaning i fear cancers so i dont go.My mom and grandma had cancer so now i have illness anxiety issues

@brittanymhestehave I totally understand. Im kind of the same way

@mnturdburgler, And this is my first baby and i fear something is wrong but drs said baby is happy and healthy.I dont want to take anxiety pills while im pregnant this whole pregnancy has been stressful

@brittanymhestehave it's definitely does make it hard to enjoy pregnancy

*it

Took us 5 years but I felt the exact same way. I didn't want to be excited.
