worrywart

Hi,

Maybe I watch too much television but I am constantly worrying about all the possible things that could go wrong. This is my first baby so I don't really know what I'm supposed to feel. I'm 19+3 weeks today and have my 20 week scan on Tuesday. I am terrified that there will be something wrong. Then if there isn't anything found in the scan, I know I'll start worrying about other possibilities. I also don't feel very pregnant at the moment, I've just come out of the sickness and exhaustion phase and I do have a bump but I just don't feel anything else. In my heart of hearts I know I'm being silly but I can't seem to stop thinking about all the negatives.

  • Hey,

    I think its normal to worry- well i hope it is as i constantly do it!!! I think worrying comes attached to the bfp!

    from about 17 wk till about 28 wks I didn't feel very pregnant as i wasn't sick or tired anymore- its classed as the honeymoon period.... i miss those days!!! They go soooo quickly.

    I hope your scan goes well on tuesday, and try not to worry too much
