Nervous

When do you stop feeling nervous?

I have had 3 ultrasounds (last one at 8 weeks, 1 day) and I am always nervous until our next one, which is not until October 16th! I wonder if this is more so because we did IVF or if I will just be a worrier for the rest of my life because of this kid.

I didn't do IVF but, it took me awhile to get pregnant with DS 1 - I was a wreck most of my pregnancy. I had spotting in the first and second trimesters which made me even more nervous, and then I fell right before the start of my third tri.

I was also nervous with DS 2 - I had bleeding in the middle fo the first tri (tot he point where I thought I had miscarried) and into the second tri.

Re: Nervous

never. DD is 6&1/2 and DS 4 and i still worry i am 36 weeks and still get nervous.

But it def is comforting when you feel the baby move everyday.

I am almost 16 weeks and still nervous everyday. I think I will stop being nervous when I am holding my baby then another type of nervousness will start.

Re: Nervous

This time around I started feeling less nervous when I started feeling kicks, so around 21-22 weeks.

It's a whole different type of nervous once the baby arrives.

Re: Nervous

I really don't know if I've ever stopped being nervous, but once I began feeling the baby it definitely took some of the edge off. I am 38 weeks and still petrified everytime I have a sono. I think it's soooo normal to be constantly nervous

Re: Nervous

It's totally normal to be nervous between u/s. I think it gets easier when you can feel the baby throughout the day. It's just a reassurance that a LO is growing inside you!

Re: Nervous

We did IUI, and we are 14 weeks
I do not thinki iwill ever stop being nervous-
i def felt better after my NT scan, but still alwyas nervous

Re: Nervous

Thanks Ladies! I was pretty sure it was normal, but just wanted verification. My sister just had a baby and she said she was nervous until the day she delivered.

Re: Nervous

I didn't do IVF, but I was still full of anxiety before each sono. After 12 weeks, I started to relax a little and each time got easier. However, I still get slightly nervous at 30 weeks now!

I did IUI to get pregnant with my first. This pregnancy was on our own. Whiile I'm nervous with this one...I was way more anxious with the first. Don't know if it was b/c it was through IF treatments, or now because I've been through it before. Either way, its rough!! It did get better for me though, as each week passed. I finally felt a lot better after 20 weeks.

Re: Nervous

I think the nervousness stops...umm nope never! I am 31 weeks and am still nervous every time I go and everyday I am constantly assessing her movements and stuff. I am sure it only gets worse when they get here too. Ahhhh parenthood.
