I am terrified every day that I will miscarry. I have no idea why, and I stay fairly calm, but its in my thoughts every day! I won't buy baby stuff until I am 20 weeks lol!

Many women are scared of that...

Don't be...Make sure you go to the doctor when you are supposed to, take your vitamins and listen to everything he/she tells you...They do know best (most of the time)

i have read many articles on miscarriage because I am terrified of the same thing....Terrified..And most of the articles say that there's not really a way to prevent it, and they really don't know what causes it...Just keep listening to the doctor and keep your spirits up...Don't let yourself think the worst.

I worried my whole pregnancy, I never bought anything until the end I thought I would jinx it, its just part of being preg, and it does not get better after the baby comes because then you start to worry about everything else, I remember ataying awake all night to aje sure she was breathing :lol: welcome to motherhood :lol:

Being pregnant without having the baby physically in your arms you are still a mother. Those feelings are very normal I think we all have them through out our whole pregnany. I had them, and probably most of the women who are replying to your post. Listen to sound advise relax and be calm and everything will work in your favor. Good luck

Ok calm down! Dont worry yourself like that. I know its easier said then done. Really unless your a high risk you dont need to worry so much. Focus on having your baby and getting this littlw bundle of joy in a few months. Ive had a miscarriage and I never had my baby but I do conseider myself to be a mother, the mother of an angel.

I was terrified this time around too as I had 2 previous miscarriages. If you could find some of my old posts here you;d see-lol. I kept telling people not to give me anything till I was at least 6 months and I got mad at people who gave me stuff before. I didn't get his room finished till I was almost 9 months pregnant either! Lol every lil cramp or weird thing I got worried and it does not help. It is very common to be scared to lose the baby. Have u had a previous miscarriage?

Anyway my son will be 2 months old on sunday and is doing great! Don't worry and relax and enjoy this stage of your life!
