Scared All the Time!
Before I was pregnant, I was a little bit of a hypochondriac. I was always sure something was wrong and freaked out whenever I got a call from my doctor - even something as routine as confirming an appointment would take a few years of my life 
Fast forward and, HOLY MOLY, is pregnancy rough! I'm scared about every little thing! Twinge in stomach? Something's wrong. Isolated spotting? Something's very wrong. The two together? Doom.
I wish I was capable of just enjoying this time, but I'm so paranoid! It doesn't help that we had a very scary false alarm at the 18 Anatomy U/S. It ended up being nothing major (the U/S tech made an error that sent us to an emergency level II U/S where we also had a fetal echo), but now... augh. Just bundles upon bundles of nerves.
Does anyone have anything they do to remind themselves that it'll all be okay? Or does anyone just relate?
