8 week ultrasound tomorrow.....nervous:/?

I am 7w6d pregnant today, and tomorrow morning is my first prenatal visit and I will have my second ultrasound as well. I am mainly nervous because like 2 weeks ago I had an ultrasound because I was experiencing light brown discharge and the doctor wanted to check it out. The tech found the gestational sac and yolk sac, both measuring appropriately, but we could not see fetal pole or heart beat. They told me that it could have been too early, but now I have read about blighted ovums, and I am now worried to death that tomorrows ultrasound will show no baby whatsoever. And since brown spotting is a symptom for blighted ovum, it makes me more convinced that this is my fate. I am a healthy 22 year old female and I just experienced a miscarriage in July, so everything worries me right now. Up until tomorrow morning, I will be constantly worried until I see that beautiful beating heart. Any words of wisdom! I could sure use some right about now.

    When I had my first ultrasound... It scared me to death. Sitting in the waiting room I was so nervous and hot. My biggest fear was that it would be there...but no heartbeat. When the tech brought the picture to the screen, I didn't even look at it. I had my mom look first, and I was like "is there a heartbeat! It is okay!" Surely enough, is was and my nerves were just getting the best of me.

    Any colored discharge is always alarming...but you'd be surprised as of to how normal it is in early pregnancy. I mean, look at these women who say "I had period like bleeding my entire pregnancy and had a healthy baby!" I think you need to stop worrying, soak in a hot bath, watch a movie, do something that relieves your stress because your nerves aren't helping you or the baby quite frankly.

    I wish you the best:) but I think you'll be okay tomorrow.

  • I am sure that your baby is alive and well inside of you. He/she is just waiting to be born next year and it was probably just too soon to tell. I wish you the best of luck in everything! You're child will be with you soon :)
