Well, I've made it to 7 weeks and I am still an absolute ball of nerves. I am unable to relax. This is making me an emotional trainwreck. I know I need to relax, so please don't tell me to relax :) I feel like I am worrying so much. I want to protect and care for this baby but I know there is only so much I can do. It's very frustrating. We have another ultrasound tomorrow so hopefully that will give me a little more comfort.
This month marks 3 years since we started trying. Wow. It has been a long and difficult journey...

Good luck at the u/s tomorrow. I am very excited for you. Grats on 7 weeks!!
Good luck tomorrow! Hopefully after you reach 12 weeks you'll be able to enjoy your pregnancy a little more. The beginning is so hard!
best of luck with the U/S tomorrow!
Welcome back! I've been doing a lot of deep breathing and it helps. I'll be praying really hard for both of us! :)
Praying for a "best case scenario" again tomorrow!! Hugs
Great great news that all is going well, its so normal to be scared, I still am. I really hope you have a wonderful scan today! (its tomorrow already in Aus...) x
"One day at a time." I'm praying you have a smooth healthy pregnancy ahead.
I suppose the best you can hope for is that your pregnancy gets progressively easier to believe (for you), and that you get progressively more hopeful as the baby gets bigger and bigger. And I would never, ever tell you to "just relax," because I know I would/will be the same way when/if I'm pregnant.
Sending you lots of good wishes for your u/s today!
I'll be waiting for an update!
I've been where you are, and I totally understand. My friend gave me a book that really helped to settle my nerves and strenghten my spirit. It's called "Nine Months & Counting" by Alice Chapin. You may be able to find it at a Christian bookstore, or online.
I've been thinking of you and your ultrasound all day. I hope that passing this milestone will be very encouraging for you. You are a good mother already, being concerned for your baby and wanting to do everything possible to help him/her.
I don't mean to be stalking you, but I've checked your blog about 7 zillion times today for an update. How did your u/s go? I've got all my fingers and toes crossed for you.
I understant. I was awreck when I was pregnant. Convinced there was something wrong etc etc.
I ruined the trimester I got worrying about it and it still hurt like stink when things went to sh*t anyway.
Try not to worry, but I understand that it's not easy.
