    20 week scan

    Well we have made it this far but I'm absolutely terrified of our scan on Wednesday, I think it's made worse as my first mc was a missed mc. I have all the tell tale signs of pregnancy - growing belly, continuing morning sickness but there is still a nagging feeling at the back of my head that won't go away. I had a scan at 14 weeks which showed a healthy baby so I'm hoping it's still swimming around in there. Has anyone else had similar fears?

    Hun, I stress before any scan I go to so it's pretty normal! The 20 week scan is pretty major so I tend to stress extra with that one if it makes you feel any better. GL next Wednesday hun, I'm sure all will go well! Plus you get to see some awesome pics of your little bub xox

    I've had tests, scans, morning sickness and my growing belly all tell me i'm having a baby but i just can't bring myself to believe it sometimes. I was very anxious leading up to my 12 week scan that there wouldn't be anything on the screen or that before the scan the baby would die or i would be told it had died weeks earlier.

    Now that i'm coming up to 15 weeks the fears and worry about my 20 week scan are coming. I just have a feeling that something will happen and it petrifies me

    I know i won't relax until i am holding my baby in my arms.

    I think its very natural after going through what we did

    Massive hugs hunny and congrats on reaching 20 weeks!!

    We had a scan today and there it was in all it's glory moving around with a great heartbeat of 147bpm, hopefully now I can relax a little and begin to enjoy this pregnancy like a 'normal' person
