Congrats btw!
It takes time sometimes to settle with the feelings, I find that talking out your feeling helps to kind of analyze your thoughts and emotions to fully understand them yourself and process them. I was kinda of in same boat of trying but not expecting anything and it was too surprising for me to find out. Think of all the positive points and acknowledge all the negative thoughts and allow yourself to feel past the negative thoughts. It can be a lot of emotions to process and depending on what we have been through in life it shapes how we take all this information in. Give it time mama this time will pass too. Love and light 💕
Thanks mamas! I really appreciate your kind words.
This was me my first pregnancy! I felt that way until he was born. The stress and anxiousness really made pregnancy terrible for me. So this time around, I’m just taking it day by day. And trusting that whatever ends up happening is the plan. Me worrying will not fix anything (unfortunately 😭). I still have some anxiety this pregnancy, but really not as much as my first. Some things I’ve actively done: 1) Anytime a miscarriage post appears, I usually say I’m not interested in the post. 2) Stopped looking at any like “trying to conceive” blogs etc. I’m also not on this app tooo much bc sometimes it can stress me out. 3) Knowing that at this point in pregnancy (9 weeks) if I were to lose the baby, the ER or dr would most likely send me home to do it (They can’t do much else unless you need a d&c). Hope that this helps a little. I totally understand how you’re feeling. Don’t let it come all consuming! Wake up each day by saying, “as of today, I am pregnant.”
I get a lot of anxiety during my pregnancies, I think it’s understandable if you’re anxiety prone in general but if you are uncomfortable you could try speaking with a therapist. I’m 6 weeks and spiraling lol there is just still a level of uncertainty and worry this early. I think once you get your bump it will start to subside. The first trimester is weird!
