Got a + this morning and am already scared to death

[jean]

This morning I got a positive, and I am already feeling sick with fear. Though it's stil waaay early...(if any of you know me elsewhere online, please don't say anything to anyone...I don't want this getting out until I'm further along_) Plus I only took one test..it could be a false test..I'll have to pick up another at the store later.

I've been stressed lately, and sick...had a fall apart crying day earlier this week, so I worry that all of that would not affect implantation well.

I'm also scared to death since my OB does not want me to take lda. AND I do not have ANY symptoms of pregnancy. I don't know when symptoms usually start, but that really scares me too. Last time when I was pg I had a lot of watery discharge..I don't even have that this time (as of yet anyway)..

Really scared..

I've been sick and have been taking cough drops daily to get through work...I hope that hasn't hurt anything..

OMG Jean! How exciting! I'm sending positive vibes your way I can relate to your feeling scared - my husband and I only got a green light to try a few days ago and I'm already scared! I hope you get a confirmed positive and are on your way to a long successful pregnancy!

Jean..how terrifyingly exciting! If it is so...then I wish you nothing but the best.
I suffered from panic attacks whenever I took my BP during my last pregnancy so I bought myself some "soothing" sounds
CD's...and I would always play those and take deep breaths whenever it was time to take my BP at home.

The point is...do whatever, and find whatever it takes to help you relax and NOT have panic attacks

I can't wait for the + confirmation and to read all about your journey.

Congrats!! I am sooo happy and excited for you! I felt the same way for at least a month. I am just now calming down a bit. It is only natural to feel scared when you have been through what you have! Just know you have your own little guardian angel looking over you and this baby! ;0)

Just wanted to tell that me and quite a few of my friends had absolutely no pregnnacy symptoms. Except feeling hungry!! So don't worry about not feeling anything. Most people that do get symptoms get them around 6-7 weeks it seems. BTW congratulations that you are prego!!

Yay, Jean!! I hope it's a real +!! I'm told it's nearly impossible to get a false +.
the week before I found out I was pregnant this time, I had a crying breakdown, too ... I think the hormones were just setting in. but I didn't have much in the way of symptoms until a week or so later.

I'm praying for a long and safe pregnancy for you!

Thanks everybody..I took another test and got another positive! (It was one of those answer tests with 2 lines...the 2nd line was not as strong/dark as the first..hopefully that doesn't mean anything bad...it wasn't faint though, just lighter)
Anyway...that's good to know about the symptoms...when I got pg the first time I "felt different"..so I knew I was pg but this time, I haven't felt anything...now I'm just feeling nerves and fear! Eek! I will keep everyone updated along the way on everything!
I'm just so scared..a lot of ppl on here seem to get a lot farther the second time around, but they were on lda..and my ob doesn't want me to use it b/c of how I went into HELLP last time and my blood was already way too thin.....yikes..I am such a worrier..
