12 Week Ultrasound Fear. Posted: 06-13-07 08:30am
Its the night before the ultra sound! I'm
suppose to feel excited i'm assuming but
instead i'm trying not to burst into
tears.
I am so scared that the baby has died. I
had a dream a couple of weeks ago that the
baby died. I woke up suddenly and thought
to myself 'i'm not pregnant any more' It
felt that real.
Please ladies any words of wisdom would be
very appreciated.

DOn't worry about it, you will just get
yourself all stressed out for no reason.
Try to relax and stay calm. I am the same
way as you, I would always worry myself
self sick and it did me now good. I am
sure it will all be fine.

I agree I wouldnt worry so much.
Do you still have all your pregnancy
symptoms?

that's not really relevant. around 12-14
weeks most women lose most of their
symptoms. i believe this is when the
placenta takes over and gives your body a
break (someone correct me if i'm wrong).
pixma, pregnancy can be very stressful for
some people. just try to relax and think
positively. i lost my first baby, so i was
pretty much a wreck every day up until i
felt my baby moving regularly.
try to enjoy your pregnancy!

dont worry, its completly normal, before
my 12 week appointment and scan i was
worried sick
i had 2 positive tests and a scan at 9
weeks that said there was a baby...but i
*still* was certain the doc would tell me
all that was wrong and i wasnt pregnant
and never was...not even that it died,
that everyone else was wrong...im insane i
know lol
try to relax and update us after your scan
good luck hope you get a really good look
at the little one

Oh i hope you are all right!! Thank you
for your kind words.
I still have symptoms. Morning sickness is
well just that but as soon as i get up and
have something to eat i'm usually fine.
Tender nipples, fatigue, and bloating are
all there.
I've always been the type of person to
dwell on the bad side of a situation. I
think i've finally realised that this is
real (only took me 7 weeks
) and how much i want this baby in my
life.
I dont deal well with a broken heart. Had
a little cry this morning in the shower
but got it under control before stephen
saw me. Hardly slept last night and he
knows i'm on edge so hes been really
good.
I will of course let you all know the
outcome.
Thanks again

I'm back from the ultrasound.
Didnt even need to see the heart beat. It
was jumping around having a wow of a
time!!
Everything looked fine so the lady said.
Its 5 cm long, heart beat around 160 which
she said is about normal, 2 arms, 2 legs
and an awsome profile!!
i shed a single tear of relief and it was
probably one of my most proudest moments
so far in my life.
Thank you to all of you for making me feel
better before i left. I'm going to see if
i can scan a couple of pics to show you
all.
