“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭NIV‬‬
Anxiety is a spirit. I put your baby in Gods hands. Blessings.

I just saw this video pop on my feed. I am currently 5 weeks. I have been super anxious this entire time with nothing but love from my family, husband and constant prayers to God. I am scared that me being too anxious will affect my baby. I thought I’ll be less anxious when I saw the US yesterday but since there’s no heartbeat or fetal pole yet, i cannot help but be more anxious. I am so glad I saw this video.knowing that it’s okay to be anxious, gives me hope.

God will take care of you and give you everything your heart desires!!!!

I understand this and did the same thing. My line never got any darker than that with my rainbow baby. Now I have an 18 month old destroying my house as we speak. So many positive thoughts your way.

[MackenzieAlcaraz]

I cannot imagine what you’ve had to go through. It breaks my heart that some women have such a hard time getting pregnant. But you are so strong and I’m so happy for y’all!! 🌈

[kimberlymartinez]

Wow I am sobbing with you!! I’m 5 weeks and literally so anxious because we’ve tried for so many years! I never thought I would be feeling this way after a positive. The amount of dark thoughts that come through my mind I literally just sobb and pray . Thank you thank you thank you for this!! You have no idea how much this has helped me and not feel crazy that I feel this way! (Like yeah I’m a bit crazy) but you know what I mean lol and also seeing that you only see a gestational sac on your 5th week ultrasound cause that’s all we saw in mine too and I just sobbed in my car cause I didn’t know what it meant 😭😂😂 you’ve literally eased my anxiety!! God bless you!!!😭🤍🤍🤍

I'm not an IVF mama, but have lost 2 pregnancies back to back recently. Even after an ultrasound at 6 and 9 weeks, I'm still nervous approaching my 12 week checkup with ultrasound tomorrow. That fear is real, seriously. I have to keep my eyes closed for the first few seconds before I get courage to look up and see if there's a baby still there and a heartbeat. Wishing you the best of luck in this pregnancy and postpartum

Hey girl!
My anxiety was EXTREME during my first and second trimester. I would cry the night before every appointment. On my first ultrasound they couldn’t find ANYTHING. No baby, no sac, my uterus was empty! They told me that it could be an early miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. That sent me into a spiral.I had to go through the blood draws and waiting for the results, the anxiety I went through was so severe. I got my results that same day and it turned out that I was just too early! I am pretty sure I bought over $100 in pregnancy tests alone and that was AFTER finding out my HCG levels were climbing fantastically. I would compare that pink line from every test I had taken. Every little cramp I had I would assume the worst. Anxiety is so so normal. YOU are normal. We heard our little babes heartbeat at 6 weeks 1 day. I was SHOCKED. But no matter the good news, I always waited for the bad. Which like in your case, it never came. I would over analyze every word the doctor said and would ask my husband “so, did the doctor sound confident that everything was ok?”. I don’t think my anxiety disappeared until 30 weeks. March 24, 2020 I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl. It’s okay to not enjoy your pregnancy. And it’s okay to feel anxious. It’s hard to not let it consume you. Take a deep breath, mama.
It sounds like your little babe is THRIVING. ❤️

I feel so relieved knowing there's some hope! My hcg was low and they saw a sack but no pole my heart dropped doc said come back in 3 days get HCG checked again, I'm supposed to be around 5 weeks they asked if i had regular periods i said yes i track mine, she said FINGERS CROSSED that everything is okay. I lost so much hope and have been crushed all day i can't even move, just thank you for this sigh of relief even if it's just a little hope, it's what I needed!

[operachicken]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I just had my first ultrasound and there was a gestational sack but no fetal pole. Doc thinks I am early and I am going back in a couple weeks to be rescanned. The amount of anxiety and prayer is so real. Thank you for keeping it so real.

[jazmineolivarez]

I just went for my first appointment and they couldn’t find my baby... so I’m having to test my levels every 48 hours. Watching your story is giving me hope...

[TraceyLuna]

I feel your pain. Last night I did the same thing, took a pregnancy test and the line didn't get any darker than it had been a few days ago. 🥺 Had to remind myself it didn't mean anything. After two miscarriages every little cramp and twinge has me thinking the worst. We just have to stay in the moment and not let the fears of our past ruin the joys of the current moment and our future. I will keep you in my prayers as I also pray for my own mind. 🙏🏾

[jillrobertson]

I suffer with terrible anxiety. Since becoming a mom 6 years ago, its so much worse. I worry about everything to do with him. My mind goes nuts. Weirdly when I found out I was pregnant with him I was not worried. I was ecstatic. When I had him...wow. postpartum anxiety was THE WORST. i feel like i still have it.
People say all moms worry...but me, im on another level. Shew wee. Worth it, but Lord.

[SaraStiltner]

Found this video after searching 5 week ultrasound. This gives me zoo much reassurance. Same thing happened to me this week. No fetal pole and it is scary. Heading. back next. Fingers crossed and prayers going up.

[fldhkybnva]

We're going through IVF (between retrieval and FET ) and just found your channel. Thank you so much for normalizing all of the feelings with the knowing. It's so hard to explain to people how knowing more can feel worse. I'm so glad to watch the rest of your pregnancy series as hopeful stories really help me to keep up the faith.

[jenniferallred]

Thank you for your video. I understand how scary it can be, me and my husband have been trying for 3 years. August 2019 I had a chemical pregnancy, June of 2020 I hemorrhaged a few days after hearing the heart beat and I just found out 2 weeks ago that I'm pregnant again and I'm so scared. I just want to be able to keep this one. Prayers for all the women who are trying for a baby.

[kittymiao]

I had 3 unexplained early miscarriages, and I totally feel you. I am on week 4 and 2 days today. So you are about a few weeks ahead of me. Your videos are very encouraging to me. Please keep uploading!

[angelicaweeder]

I can relate with this so much! I am an anxious mess right now I am currently 6 weeks and can’t go into the doctors until I’m 7 weeks. I’m so beyond nervous for my first appointment and what they are gonna say. I keep testing all the time still and my lines are still very strong, but you just never know. Hang in there girl, we got this!!!

[jazzefay]

You are not alone! I’ve had two loses, I have my first with this little bean on Monday.

[Facefuzzandfancyfree]

You are 100% not silly for being so anxious. Who can blame you for needing reassurance that baby is well? You are going to be such a good mommy. I hope you find peace through the process. Sending you lots of love.
