well im 9 weeks pregnant now and i have'nt had any ultra sounds or anything yet and i cant help but feeling so nervous-this is my first pregnancy and i keep getting all these stressful thoughts in my head like 'what if they do my bloodtests and somethings wrong?' or 'what if they do the ultra-sound and they tell me im not even really pregnant and that they made a mistake and ive already told people and ill be heartbroken and look so stupid'?

I know theres no reason to think like this as i am still having all my pg symptoms and have'nt had any bleeding or anything that would cause me to be concerned but i cant seem to just be happy even though this is all i have ever wanted. is this normal.?? does anyone else have these thoughts in early pregnancy too??

You are COMPLETELY normal, right down to the thought that when you go for the ultrasound they will say there is nothing there.

I had those same thoughts, so you are either completely normal or a nutjob like me.

Its all normal and just the beginning of a roller coaster ride of doubts and emotions and crazy sh!t. Its fun and its scarey and you get a baby at the end of it :thumbsup:

Its so hard waiting around to have an ultrasound. I insisted (with this pregnancy and with my DS) that my Dr give me a referal for a dating scan....even tho I was pretty sure of my dates. I just need that reassurance and I didnt mind paying for it.

When is your first ultrasound? I hope it's not to far away! Just hang in there. :hugs:

I've had my dating scan..and am now waiting for the 12 week NT scan...and in waiting i'm thinking "what if this..what if that".
I think its quite normal to remember all the horror stories you've been told...

Thats pretty cool!!!

I hope the next few weeks go really quick for u! Its totally normal to question everything. Especially when u read about things other ppl have gone thru and u think omg that could happen to me and I wouldnt know!

I can't wait till 12weeks ultrasounds! My 12weeks one with DS was so clear! I hope this one is the same! I cant wait to see my baby!!

yeh i hope it goes quick too,with xmas around the corner it should go quick.

yeh because ive read so many stories from other women and what theyve gone through i keep thinking 'why would everything go right for me??' just crazy thinking and asking too many 'what ifs?' i suppose
