I'm in the same boat as you and it's my second...the waiting is hard no matter what. I'm paranoid about miscarrying, but I think that's normal for anyone who is pregnant.
Focus on other things and hopefully the time will fly luckily this is holiday season and there is no end of things to do!
I think it's totally normal to feel that way and unfortunately nothing to do but wait. I recently had some bleeding issues and now I'm waiting until the 28th for a follow up u/s. I'm a natural stress case and this doesn't help. I feel your pain completely

Man, I thought I had a tough time waiting two weeks! I feel your pain, I got in early thought due to my past endo issues. Just take care of yourself, eat right (try that now before you get nauseated!) and take your prenatals. You will be fine!

I still haven't had a heartbeat or ultrasound (just a getting to know you appt with the nurse). I peed on cheap HPTs for a little while to make myself feel better.
Now I puke every day so I am pretty convinced it's real
My EDD is July 16th and my first appointment also isn't until Dec. 19th!! It can't come soon enough!
I did just get my betas drawn today though due to some spotting I had yesterday that freaked me out (I had a m/c this past summer), and I go back to get my 2nd betas drawn Wednesday. Hopefully that'll put my mind at ease enough for another month.

I'm in the same boat! First pregnancy for us and I just found out. Waiting definitely sucks, but not much else you can do. Like someone else said, at least it's around the holidays.

Try to concentrate on other things. 1st tri is absolutely awful with the waiting, but I promise you will look back and reflect on how quickly it all passed.
I totally get it. You just have to assume everything is fine. Don't worry unless you have something to worry about. Chances are everything is fine, so try not to stress. Much easier said than done, though. I know.
