Anxiety

Does anyone else not have many symptoms. I’m so anxious thinking there’s no baby. I’m testing positive and the weekly test has gone up to 2-3 weeks. I need to wee more urgently but I don’t have any nausea. I should be 7 weeks tomorrow. I’m just worried it’s not there anymore 😭❤️

Placenta previa?

Hello! I’m 11 weeks pregnant with my second baby and the doctor said I have placenta previa but not to worry yet cause there’s a good chance it will move. She put me on mild pelvic rest and I go get another ultrasound in a month to check it out. Has anybody had this?

Anyone else getting random tight bellies?

I’m at 31 weeks and ever since about 20 weeks my stomach gets really tight throughout the day. I think they are Braxton Hicks. Though they don’t hurt and don’t feel like cramps. It’s mostly just annoying and feeling very full.
