I am so afraid to tell people that I am pregnant. I a hopeing after monday I will feel alittle better about this pregnancy. I was 11 weeks 1 day with my last loss, and I just want to get past that point. I know this pregnancy feels 100% better then my last, but I am always afraid. When will that feeling go away? How long did it take you lady's?
Ummmm for me.....never! I'll be 13 weeks tomorrow and I still worry about every little thing. If I hear the heartbeat or see lil bean on ultrasound, I am good for the rest of the day until I need another reassuring baby 'fix'. Then I worry until my next OB appointment. I think I will be lucky if I don't completely lose my mind.
I do, however, feel somewhat better since I hit 12 weeks...I just worry and then I post here! HTH!
NEVER! I barely told anyone, everyone found out from someone else b/c frankly I didn't want to tell a single person. I remember feeling so afraid of having to tell ppl we lost another baby and breaking their hearts all over again. It can be really hard hun but when you are ready (probably when you pass the date of your loss) you will know. No rush - you got nine months to let ppl know!
I have to say, I never really felt 'comfortable' during my pregnancy. Everyday I had the worry that something was going to go wrong, or that it was going wrong.... As I got further on *deep down* I knew that everything was going to be okay - but that worry was still there...
Im sorry, its normal though, especially with how many losses you have had. Just wait til you really feel ready to tell ppl, then tel them. Maybe when you are 13 weeks and in the 2nd trimester.
I still worry TONS< but deep down I know this baby wll be okay, i feels 100x better than my last, like you said
i think that you will feel better after you get past that milestone. then there will probably still be worry, but maybe you can relax more and even start to enjoy more about being pregnant. i still worry, but every day i look forward to the future when i have my baby in my arms. at the beginning of this pregnancy, i never even thought about actually having a baby.
Well, never, but I do feel more confident the more time goes by! I get really anxious before each ultrasound though. I guess because I've never NOT had a pgcy end up with "I'm sorry, I can't find a heartbeat". (Until now that is, and that goes for all of us!!!!!!!)

Thank you all so much. It is so hard, because I want to scream to everyone that I am pregnant, but I am so scared to. I had to go in for an emergency appointment this afternnon due to brown spotting, and I was so scared that they were going to tell me I am sorry there in no longer a heartbeat. I just cried like a baby when I saw the healthy baby moving all around. The baby measured right on target 10 weeks 2 days! And the heartbeat was in the 180's!
I will be 14 weeks tomorrow and haven't told anyone, but my mom. DH told all of his family and my sister, but I refuse to tell anyone. Not sure when I finally will but hopefully soon because my jeans are just getting to tight!!!

That's awesome! Everytime you see your baby you will grow more and more confident. Even though you will always be scared a little bit of comfort will come in time.
