Is it safe to quit worrying?

I've posted on here before worrying about miscarrying. I'm 10 weeks and couldn't wait any longer so I went and got another ultrasound done today. I saw both babies. They measured 10 weeks and 10 weeks 3 days. They have grown consistently with the 7 week and 8 week ultrasounds that I had done. With my last pregnancy the baby's heart stopped at 9.5 weeks. That's why I was so scared. Today I saw both babies, both heartbeats (171 and 176), heard both heartbeats through the ultrasound machine, and saw them moving their little arms and legs. Is it safe for me to get excited and tell everyone I know? I know the first trimester isn't up until 12 weeks but what are the chances of losing one between now and then? Sorry for all the questions and thank you for your answers.

 

I asked my Dr the same thing when I was right around where you are and she told me that as a mother you NEVER stop worrying!! And she was so right! If you feel comfortable telling people, then I would say Go for it!! I would say things sound like they are going great and progressing as they should!!

 

I agree as a mother you will never quit worrying, and as someone who's had a m/c you will worry until those babies are in your arms!!

That being said, my RE said that usually once you see them on u/s twice, it's pretty safe to feel confident they are going to be okay!

I had a 6 wk and 8 wk u/s with my RE who then passed me to my OB. I had to BEG for a 10 wk u/s because I had a missed m/c at 9 wks with my last pregnancy. After seeing them that time, I finally felt ready to tell everyone that it was twins!!

So I agree if you feel comfortable and confident, tell the world! I will say that now that I am into "viability" I am just now starting to get stuff ready. Just put the crib up the other day, getting ready to paint the big kids room and move them in so we can paint the nursery....etc. Up until now, I've still had that fear that something was going to happen. I'm slowly feeling more confident that we WILL be bringing home two babies! :wub:

 

I know that as a mother you never stop worrying. My 22 month old still sleeps in my room at night (we are now attempting to break him of that) because I worry so much about him. But I'm just wanting to know about the first trimester miscarriages. I've had three and with each one the baby seems to live longer than the last. So I hit the previous time and think ok it should be good from here and then I go in for a routine one at like 10 weeks and they so "o I'm sorry no heartbeat and it stopped growing at 9.5 weeks". I just don't want to here that again when I go in for my next appointment in 3 weeks.

 

[SIZE=12pt]I am a mother of 5 and 2 on the way.. I will say you never stop worrying!!! My momma still worries sick about me and my brother. I have never had trouble with any of my pregnancies nor have I ever miscarried but I am just wanting to see these babies again to make sure all is well, because this is soooo new to me. I called my OB Tuesday so that I could ask if on Monday he would do another u/s so I could see them again and make sure all is well with them. He is so good he agreed, but since I am that twinge of worry my momma is now worried for me. So it goes being a momma. We will pray for you that all continues to go well.[/SIZE]
