Paranoid, how do you get past it?

[Guest guest]

My BPT came back at 650. So thats normal for about 18 dpo but I am so

parnoid. I have 2 more BPT then an ultrasound before I go to my regular OB.

I know a lot of you have expressed these feelings of paranoia. I am scared

to death that something bad is going to happen. How did you get past it? Any

relaxation tips would help. I started some activities that help me with

stress reduction but I need some tips from the experts!

Thanks - Liz

Congrats Liz!

That's great news.

I know the stress you are feeling about paranoia. I felt that way

with dd. I don't know if this will work for you, but I had to try to

learn to NOT worry, esp. when there is no reason to. For instance,

your #s from the dr are great, you feel great, you don't have

bleeding, pain, etc...so try to celebrate the good news for now. Try

to set small goals like making it to your next appt or u/s. Looking

at all 40 weeks now may be overwhelming.

And if some symptom crops up that does concern you, try not to bury

yourself in unnecessary worry. Positive attitude really does help

situations. And nervous worrying really doesn't get you ahead of the

problem.

I know that it is hard because you have not had a happy moment to

celebrate in a long time, but try to have faith that this will be

ok. I will send up a prayer that you will have the most remarkably

BORING pg known to man ;o)

Be happy,
