How do you stay calm?


I am 4 weeks and 5 days pregnany with my thrid pregnancy. The previous two misscarried around week 8 and 9. I'm trying to distract myself mentally and not think about it too much. But I am still anxious. Any thoughts?

I am currently 24 weeks pregnant with my second pregnancy. My first pregnancy ended at 7 weeks, and I can certainly commiserate with what you're feeling now. I wish there was some magic cure for the anxiety that you're going through, but I found that the only thing that really helped was actually passing that horrible number. Even then, I maintained a strong anxiety up until my 20 week sonogram. (So, as you can see, I'm only just starting to get over it and calm down. Well, about that anyway. Now I'm panicking because I'm realizing that I'm actually going to have a baby. Maybe pregnancy is all about panic and anxiety?) Anyway, I can't make your anxiety go away, but I can tell you that I know how you feel and maybe that will help a little. :-\
