Pregnancy is SCARY!

I guess I am not one of those people, at least with my first pregnancy, that can sit around and relax through it all.  I am constantly counting days by, worrying about each cramp and strain, hoping I am doing things right!  I can't decide if the internet is helpful, or anxiety-inducing.  With every individual pregnancy being different, no one ever has the same symptoms, and symptoms can have multiple meanings.  For now, my goal is to try the best I can to relax...which will hopefully be easier once I reach that time in my head when our baby boy could be born and be healthy-- 28 weeks? 37 weeks? Due date?  In reality, I suspect that worrying is just a constant part of parenthood!

  1. worrying comes with the territory and it NEVER stops! Try your best to do some nice things for yourself ~ and you're right about trying to relax. You will be terrific parents! Your baby's lucky to have you both! xoxoxo

  2. I was/am a worry wart. I was always marching myself into the doctor's office to ask about this or that. Pregnancy is certainly mentally and physically demanding! --Amy Goodwin
