I'm so paranoid
I'm 22wk1d today and I can not stop thinking that something will go wrong with the pregnancy. I'm paranoid that the cord will get wrapped around the babies neck  I feel awful that I think this way but I can't help it.
Does anyone else drive themselves crazy about things that could go wrong?
Last night I found myself pushing my stomach asking the baby to kick me so I know he's alright. I think I got him mad because he started kicking/punching me. I just wish I could stop.
Thanks for listening.

Re: I'm so paranoid
Welcome to my world! I am so worried about everything since I had a miscarriage with the first pregnancy. I think its just to show us what mothering really is like- you NEVER stop worrying AFTER they are born either!

Re: I'm so paranoid
I have been this way the whole time.
1 in 1000 babies have cord accidents. The odds are against it. Cords wrap around the babies' necks all the time and nothing happens. Don't worry about that. I did the same thing with the poking. In fact I still do it whena few hours go by without feeling her move. Just relax and enjoy your pregnancy. It goes too fast.

Re: I'm so paranoid
Thank you ladies. Not that I'm happy that others feel the same way (because it's an awful feeling) but I am happy to know that I'm not alone.

Re: I'm so paranoid
I sometimes get nervous and try to sit still to see if I feel the baby move.
He is not moving all that much, actually I should say... at my last sono he was moving like crazy....I just can't feel him as much, because my placenta is in front of him.

Re: I'm so paranoid
Don't worry about things like that. It is so infrequent it is like a 1 in a million fluke thing. My babies cord IS wrapped around his neck and it is somewhat normal. They are just monitoring me more closely. Don't worry yourself!

Re: I'm so paranoid
I worry constantly. When I first found out I was pregnant and I told my dad how worried I was all the time, he said get used to it, this is only the beginning...I still worry about you. As parents, worry is an emotion I think we just have to learn to live with and deal with.
