How is everyone doing this week?

[MissSally]

Doing ok. I'm feeling pretty anxious about my anatomy scan tomorrow. I just know too many people who have found out horrible news and it freaks me out. I keep telling myself I have no reason to worry, but it'll always be in the back of my mind.

Good luck tomorrow MissSally. I find myself with similar anxieties every time I have a u/s. It stinks.

This is me exactly. I feel like the anatomy scan will be the turning point for me. I am mostly starting to accept the joy/excitement but this is hanging over me.

Ditto to anxiety over a/s. Mine isn't until feb 27 (21 weeks) but after getting the results for low Papp-a I am anxious to make sure everything looks good.

I hate how being PgAL takes all the innocence out of pregnancy. I find myself getting angry at women who just coast through it without a care in the world.

Totally. There are two fb friends who announced over Christmas and I'm at least 2 weeks ahead of them. So the pee stick wasn't dry. And they've already announced the sex of their babies and have posted pictures. And here I am still using the Doppler tons and wondering when the other shoe will drop. I haven't announced on FB yet either.

I wish I had their breezy pregnancy life. I bet they haven't worried a bit that they won't have a take home baby.

Yes!!!! I've had to unfollow at LEAST three friends just because I'm so tired of them complaining about pregnancy symptoms and posting pictures every ten minutes. (This is not to say I never complain - but I sure as heck don't do it on social media to get attention).

I've hidden a few as well. Not every post has to be about your pregnancy. I mean if that's all you want to share, ok. Luckily for me there's an unfollow button now. lol
