I can understand what you are feeling, the waiting to reach the 'safe' period is so hard.

Finally when we hit week 11-12, just recently, I stopped expecting blood every time I went to the bathroom. Like you, I would also over analyze every symptom...my chest would feel less sore and I would think "this is it, it's over". I suppose it is a defence mechanism in a way (to always expect the worse).

We are finally feeling comfortable enough to start telling people (losing the fear of having to 'untell' them).

Any chance of booking another ultrasound sometime soon, just for some reassurance?

If you can do something to distract yourself from the pregnancy, I would suggest that as well...go to the gym, visit friends etc. It will help make the time go by faster hopefully.

Good luck and keep us posted!
