First trimester anxiety

Hi fellow mummies. After a 14 year gap, i am pregnant again. Remarried and yes its planned. Maybe i dont recall being pregnant anymore, so i dont know how it is meant to feel. First trimester is all about the development of fetus which I am aware of. I found out i was pregnant at 5 weeks of pregnancy. It was a difficult time from 5-19 weeks with nausea. And comes 10 weeks, im getting more stable with the symptoms but im feeling anxious about not “feeling pregnant”. I am not sure if im just spiralling but with thr symptoms then, im assured theres a being inside me. With the stability, im worried if there might be none. I had my scans and heard the heartbeat. I guess my anxiety is getting the best of me.

I totally get this, because you've been through the nausea and discomfort as your reassurance, and now that it's settling down your mind is playing tricks on you. But honestly, the fact that you've already had your scans and heard the heartbeat is the real reassurance, not the symptoms, and that's actually a good sign for how the pregnancy is progressing. Symptoms do come and go in the first trimester, and some women feel less as they move through it, so what you're experiencing is quite normal. If the anxiety keeps creeping in though, might be worth having a chat with your gynae or even the polyclinic about it, because they can give you that extra peace of mind and maybe even arrange a quick scan if you need one. You've done all the right things so far, so try to trust that.
