Currently entering 8 weeks and super anxious. My next appointment is in 2 weeks time. Private route.

I have so many questions wondering if the baby inside is alright? Is he/she developing well? Are the foods I’m taking good enough? I always google the food before I eat them. I’m so scared I’ll lose this baby. This is my first pregnancy and I want everything to go smoothly. I’m so anxious, I’m so worried. The last ultrasound I had of this baby was at 6 weeks. Dr mentioned our next appointment will be 4 weeks later (at 10 weeks) at Mount Alvernia. I feel that it’s so late… At the same time, I know the Dr wants this to be at that specific week so we can do more tests (NIPT, FTS). Am I overthinking this? Should I just go for another ultrasound? Just to see how my baby is? So far I have no symptoms, just brown discharge that occured once and pain on my right side (kidney area). Alot of my colleagues have been telling me the pain on the side of the stomach is normal. I’ve received so many assurances but I’m still so scared. Idk why. 😭 Help. Also, any of you are following up at Mount Alvernia? Or have followed up there before? And which Dr? Is there any good Dr you want to recommend? I’m currently seeing Dr Jacqueline Jung and I think she’s friendly and experienced in minor invasive surgeries. Anyone who thinks otherwise? #pregnancy #firstmom #firsttimemom #FTM #anxiousmommy

Hi I’m in the exact same situation as you, have so many questions on my bb. It’s my first pregnancy and my last visit to the gynae was week 5, my appointment is 4 weeks later during week 9. Am week 8 now. I’ve got cramps too but it’s very minor, I think the anxiety is normal and there’s nothing I can do about it other than wait it out Right now I just want to stop feeling nauseous Let’s +u together!

Yes we’re same week! I assume your edd is super early March :) I can’t take Diclectin as I’m allergic to it so I’m basically suffering Tbh I try not to think about it and take it a day at a time - the wait feels so long 😂 like what March seems so far away I am praying for a smooth pregnancy journey for you too! We got this!
