Newbie, panicking about first scan revealing something horrible

[Hchee1979]

Hiya Girls....
So here I am at 6-7 weeks pregnant (two BFP tests and a missing AF for 15 days) and not feeling any side effects except bloating and wind...I think can cope with that!

I've told my Dr and she's told me that the midwife will be in touch. But I'm starting to panic about the baby not having a heartbeat when we go to for our first scan....does anyone know if this is a common problem that occurs?

Hiya!

Am sure its only natural to worry if your scans going to be ok doll. Try not to stress yourself out too much and not think about it, i know its easier said then done ( i will probs be the same when i eventually get pregnant haha.) Just try be positive and look forward to your babys 1st scan. Hope all goes well for ya x x

Hiya, it's a common problem to be anixious thats for sure.

A lot of people feel slightly anxious all the way through.

It's so easy to say, try to relax and you will be fine, yet so hard to do!

Hark at me, I haven't seen my gp yet, got to wait until next week, but at times I feel a little scared to go to the loo in case I see something I don't want to!

Hope all goes well xxx

Hi hunnie

I think everyone has those concerns dont they, I think it seems more common on here than it is in 'real life' if you know what I mean. Try to relax, look after yourself and good luck for your scan xx

Hey, don't worry its normal to worry about stuff like that. I've just turned 8 weeks and still panicing, want to think of a reason to get an early scan but i doubt very much they would do it just to put my mind at ease. Could opt for a private one but £99 is a lot for something thats probably not necessary.

keep telling myself to be patient and 12 weeks will be here before you know it! try not to stress too much, stress free mum means a happy baby. Thats what i tell myself when i can feel myself getting stressed about it anyway

Lucky you on the no symptoms btw

Hey Girls thanks ever so much for responding. I felt a bit daft writing that post cos if something does happen there isn't a damn thing that I can do about it anyway but I really want this one to work out for me.

I'll have to keep my fingers crossed....just wish that there was some way to make me feel a bit more pregnant!

Hiya

I think it's perfectly natural to feel like that, I was particularly panicky for the first few weeks after finding out, I must say though, I have calmed down a bit now, I am still apprehensive obviously, but I have definitely chilled a bit! My scan date is 11th March, next friday & it really can't come quick enough!! x

Babe my first I was scaied to even move out of bed . Untill My 20 week scan it is normal and any one that said otherwise is not telling the truth. I am sure you will be fine and your bean will be snug as a bug in a rug in your tummy growing big and strong.
