Q: Terrified of First Ultrasound

Some backstory - I had a missed miscarriage that emotionally wrecked me about a half a year ago. We had an ultrasound at 7 weeks and saw a healthy heart beat, then at 8 weeks I started spotting. Another ultrasound showed that the heartbeat had stopped and I miscarried shortly after that. Immediately after that miscarriage I had another miscarriage. Now I'm about 8 weeks pregnant again and have my first ultrasound in two days. My pregnancy symptoms have been declining, although so far there's been no spotting at all. I'm terrified that my ultrasound in two days will reveal another missed miscarriage. It's to the point of distracting me at work and I'm always on the verge of tears. Any advice on how to just get through the next two days until I know, one way or the other? Thank you.

I can't seem to find a reason why you can't step out of your fear of another missed miscarriage. But worrying will nevertheless cause us more and more damage than doing any good, at all! I know it is easier said than done going thriugh a couple of miscarriages, but you have no other way, right? It is always said that the child growing in our womb feels everthing that be do. He eats, breathes, and drinks all that you as a mother do. So keep this in mind that if you are stressing yourself beyond repairable limits, yoy are only doing your baby a lot of damage. He might not be able to survive that. The bad that has occured was history, now the only bad that can and might happen is from an 'if'. It is destroyer of everything that comes its way. Stay happy and be surrounded with happy vibes. Who knows your vibrant ambiance might do your baby the best of what you, worrying sick could never do. I am sure you woukd never want to makw your baby hurt. And if you think about it, worrying hurts him
