Dear All,

I'm new to this website, but I'm learning soooo much from reading everything here.

I'm a born worrier, so naturally with this being my first pregnancy I'm stressing big time about EVERYTHING. My main thing is that I don't feel like I am pregnant. I have sore breasts (I think, they do feel a bit tender) and I am bit tired, but apart from that I don't feel much different. Some days I can't eat enough, but I don't know if that is a psychological thing.... I will be 12 weeks on Friday, and even though I am looking forward to my first visit with my OB, I am also petrified that he is going to say something is wrong. I'm really freaking about what is termed a "missed abortion" - how you can have an m/c and not really know..... I really hope that after my OB visit and hearing my baby's heartbeat I will realise how silly I have been. The other thing that concerns me is that I haven't been going to the toilet a lot (like everyone says they do.....) I know it sounds crazy, but as I said I'm a worrier so I have questions about everything.... :roll: Could it have something to do with not producing enough progesterone. I don't know much about pregnancy (apart from what I am reading) and it always helps to hear first hand experiences, and not having told anyone about the pregnancy yet, it makes it a bit hard. Gotta love these bulletin boards!

Did anyone else have pregnancies where it didn't really seem like they were pregnant? I am hoping that I am just lucky, ie no bad symptoms. My husband keeps hassling me about when he can tell people, but until I can hear a heartbeat, I guess I won't feel like it is real.

Yours in pregnancy

S
