firstly, im so sorry to hear about your cousins baby, and i understand it must be so hard for her,and for you as well. and congratulations on your own baby, you must be very excited
as someone who just had a stillborn baby boy a few months ago, all i can say is your fears are very normal. unfortunately though, (and i know this won't allay many of your fears) but if something is to go wrong, it can go wrong very quickly. i had an ultrasound one day, a midwifes appointment the next day, and the day after that my baby was dead. he was born with the cord around his ankles, and no one had picked it up.
i know this isn't what you want to hear, but it is reality. i never thought anything like this would happen to me, but it did. all i can say is, try to remain as calm as you can, keep an eye on your baby's movements, and go into the hospital if you feel the need. and don't be afraid to talk to your doctor's or midwifes about your concerns if you want. and being worried is very normal during pregnancy. try not to stress about things too much. the chances are you and your baby will be fine.
