Hi Shar

I think that everyone worries. I didn't get my hopes up about my pregnancy until I had the 12 week scan because someone really close to me just lost their bub at 10 weeks so I was thinking 'it must be too good to be true if it works out for me', plus every website or forum you look at it can seem that everyone has had a really difficult time getting pregnant and then carrying the baby to full term.

You have to bear in mind that people that have stock-standard low risk pregnancies wouldn't really write about it because their story is the norm iykwim?

As it turns out, I went for my scan earlier this week and bub is as perfect as could be, which is what I am sure will be the case with you.

If I was you, I would look only at positive forums or forums for bubs so you can get excited rather than dwell on the 'what if's'. That's what I've been doing and that's helped. And just remember that people have a more difficult path to get their bubs will be looking for support online moreso that those who can fall pregnant very quickly and have no issues; so what is norm online isn't really norm in real life.

Wishing you a happy, healthy and stress-free pregnancy! xx
