I found out I was pregnant at 12 DPO. I went to my doctor a couple days later and they confirmed my HCG was rising hard and fast. Those first few days I was floating on cloud nine. But after a week, I was so anxious that I would miscarry. Its my first ever pregnancy and I wanted this baby so bad. I kept checking my undies for bleeding every time I walked past a bathroom. My husband and I finally went in at 8 week for my first ultrasound. I didn't sleep the night before because I was so afraid the doctor would tell me there was no heartbeat. The tech could tell I was anxious and show us our baby's heartbeat first before she did any measurements. I cried my eyes out on the bed and thanked God. I'm 35 weeks right now with a baby boy and I am so grateful for every little kick and wiggle.

@@GeorginaRodriguez20 some care providers wait until 12 weeks. I believe it’s because they think there is a better chance of clearly seeing the baby on the ultrasound. I get the reasoning but it also surprises me because I’d figure they want to make sure the pregnancy isn’t ectopic. Ultrasound machines are so well developed these days that techs can get pretty good pictures weeks before that point. I’d encourage you to seek another provider if possible. You could even get an ultrasound from an independent imaging office if one is available on your area. I understand what you are feeling. There really isn’t much that can make those feelings go away. Take it one it one day at a time❤️❤️

This might help some, and upset others. Being an older first time mom in my first trimester, I was at first extremely worried about a miscarriage. Though we got pregnant easily , we don't exactly have lots of time to try again. I did a bunch of research to find out what to do/ not do to reduce the chances of early miscarriage... and was relieved to see there's not much a woman can do to cause it. Too much caffeine, certain herbs, raw papaya, and hot tubs/saunas, basically. Not moderate exercise, not junk food, not moderate stress. Basically most early miscarriages are caused by an issue with the baby itself- something not quite right in its genetics/DNA. Learning that immediately calmed my stress. I'm eating healthy, cut my caffeine, continuing my slightly reduced exercise, and trying to sleep/ hydrate more, but if the terrible happens, I'll know it's nature doing what it needs to do to save that little bundle of baby - and me- from experiencing the horrible pain and misery of a short difficulty existence. And I'm at peace with that.

@Student HannahBeatrix Valladolid Thank you so much, I appreciate your comment. Sadly we're a familiar statistic. We lost the baby at 11 1/2 weeks, with 0 symptoms... but didn't find out until a week later, after we finally started telling everyone we were pregnant and making real plans. We had no idea "missed miscarriages" were a thing. (They need to be brought out of the shame closet so ladies experiencing them can get the same support the more common miscarriage gets.) Tests from the D and C showed the baby had Down Syndrome- exactly the type of possibility I'd been preparing myself for. Apparently 2/3 of Downs babies miscarry. The sight of babies and children makes us both incredibly sad, but in a strange way the loss has strengthened our relationship. I wish everyone all the best, and stand by my original comment, now knowing it's so true... the loss of ANY pregnancy is devastating, even when you're prepared for the possibility... but I trust in mother nature making the right decision for our baby. I can only assume the health complications were too severe for our little boy to thrive.

Another thing is don’t be disheartened if you aren’t able to see the heartbeat at ultrasound. Currently 6 weeks with baby3, but baby2 they only saw an empty gestational sac. Prepared me for missed miscarriage. Blood work every (2? Days) checking my levels, first one the number was lower than they wanted. More fear. 1 1/2 weeks later the second ultrasound, there he was, little flicker from his heart. He is 2 1/2 now. ❤️

Times have changed. When I was pregnant, 35 and 32 years ago, I never even had an ultrasound. We didn’t know the gender, and just didn’t worry about miscarriage or problems. My first, a son, was an emergency c-section because I was too narrow for him to squeeze through and he was only 6 lbs 12 oz. My daughter was a planned c-section and it went very smoothly. I recovered well, my babies were fine but I was glad to have been in a hospital where they could handle these issues. 🥰

Love this Lex. I'm a very type A and always test a million times, use the digitals as progression markers (I'm in Canada so I can easily get the ones with weeks shown), and use the doppler early as well. My last pregnancy ended in a miscarriage at 14 weeks, and I am currently at 5 weeks and scared out of my mind. I'm trying not to stress but I always thought of reaching the second trimester as being out of the "danger zone" and now it feels like there's no such thing as "safe" so it's really hard.

This helped me so much I am 6 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I had spotting and had an early ultrasound I have a follow-up in a week to check the baby again but so far it looks good. It was just measuring a week smaller then they thought.

For new mommas don’t put too much value in the first HCG result.. I was a few days late and my first # was only 31 I was heartbroken thinking for sure I’d miscarry (I’ve had 1 before) Well here I am now almost 28 weeks pregnant! So please don’t fret if your first number is a little low.

The Fitzgeralds for me it wasn’t.. when I had my MC my first number was 28 so naturally my mind went to that dark place. My second number was 128 I cried I was so happy.

I’m loving following your journey! It’s really interesting to see differences in doc appointments etc in America compared to what I experienced here in the UK. Here, unless you pay for it, you have no ultrasounds/bloods etc until your first 12 week scan. I remember being very nervous that I was somehow lying that I was pregnant since no one checked😂! I’ve never had a miscarriage/issues this is just my experience as a FTM. It’s probably different for people with other experiences. I would pay for a private early scan next time though! X

I don’t know if people are aware, but if you are in the US and have an outpatient blood draw station, they usually have an HCG blood test you can get without doctors visit. It’s usually between $20-50 and you get your results the next day :)

This made me feel better about being obsessed with testing. Question, does your husband make fun of you? Mine is pretty annoying about it... always like, “why test again?” ... or , “there’s no way you could test positive right now right?! Why bother...” pfft. Men.

I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks 4 days recently in my first pregnancy. The probability is so low of that and it broke my heart. I was almost through my first trimester and it just sucks. I both look forward to, and dread my next pregnancy. I will definitely get a doppler when we get our next BFP, and try these other methods. Thank you for sharing this!!

I can't thank you enough for the probability tracker. As an overthinker, this really helps me somehow. Do you know how accurate this is? I'm 5 weeks and first time mommy at 42. Just a bit nervous 😓

I currently am 8.5 weeks along. Due to the virus I wasn’t allowed to have an in person appt and ultrasound. I have to wait until 12 weeks to have an ultrasound. To say my anxiety levels are high are an understatement ... so much unknown and so much time to wait. This is my first pregnancy, but due to me being in nursing school and desiring to be a labor and delivery nurse, I feel like I know too much 😂. It’s made it super hard .... just praying these next four weeks go by fast .... 😭

With my son, I couldn't have an ultrasound until 12w2d! I know how you're feeling, mama. For me it was health insurance issues which delayed it. Hang in there!! It'll fly by!❤
