Huge supportive hugs for you sweetness. I wish I could say the feeling goes away, but even at 30 weeks I still worry every day even though my little Apple Blossom never seems to stop moving. Of course then I wonder if something is wrong and that's why she's moving so much. You just can't win when you stress about every little thing.
My Obstetrician does a quick scan at every apt so I've had monthly scans plus my 12week and 19week scans, and leading up to each scan I get more and more excited, then when it's just days away I start to get more and more scared. I had a 4D scan on Sat and yet I am still scared about my Ob apt tomorrow! Completely irrational, but us mummies are allowed to be a little irrational from time to time
Personally I am a huge fan of the fetal dopplers. I used one with DS's pregnancy and also with this one. I managed to find DS's heartbeat at 11ish weeks, and I found our little Apple Blossom's at 9 weeks! I will admit that it's a bit scary when bub's are so little and it takes ages to find the heartbeat. I was close to going to the hospital one night when I couldn't find her heartbeat while sitting up. I then lay down and found it within seconds. But when ever I heard that little thump-thump of the heart beating strongly I felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders
I wish you all the best in the rest of your journey. Also, even when you stress about things, make sure you enjoy that little precious bundle growing inside you![]()
