Need to stop worrying!

So, the news is out. We told my family on my mom's b-day last Sunday, the 20th. Then we told DH's family on Thanksgiving. Everyone is super surprised but very excited for us.
I am 10 weeks now and my sickness has almost completely gone. It is very occasional now and usually just when I wait too long between meals.
I have a little bump showing, though to me, it just feels like my pooch I already had as a souvenir from the 1st two chitlins is just filling out and slightly firmer. But, DS loves to pat it and say hello to the baby. We are calling the baby Junebug as a nickname.
I am really excited for her (I just have a girl feeling) but I find myself worrying over things a LOT. I keep seeing posts in various baby forums about women who are the same gestation as me, same age, who also had an IUD for years prior to this current pregnancy, who are having miscarriages! It kinda freaks me out. Especially since my sickness is going away. I almost want it back, just to make me feel more assured that there is still growth and change happening in my baby.
One gal with similar stats as mine just had her first US at 10 weeks and the baby was only measuring 8 weeks and there was no heartbeat. Well, I had my last US at 8 weeks and we saw heartbeat, but what if something went wrong between then and now? How would I know unless I start cramping and bleeding? Every time I use the restroom, I am scared. I over analyze every little twinge.
I know this isn't good for me or Junebug, but I find it difficult to reign myself in sometimes. I am counting the days to when I will feel that first little movement...that daily reassurance that she is okay.
Until then, I am trying to remind myself to take deep breaths and relax...relax and PRAY my worries away.
