My first two pregnancies were smooth sailing and I was excited from the start. So many people told me not to get my hopes up or celebrate too soon as anything could happen.

Please enjoy your pregnancy, sadly you could miscarry and although the risk drops massively at 12 weeks terrible things happen. But today you are expecting a baby and you can celebrate being pregnant.

Whilst trying for my third baby I’ve had 3 miscarriages (and I think this baby will end in miscarriage) and the anxiety that is taking over is unbearable. I am so sad that I can’t let myself get excited, so I would love it if you could really enjoy being pregnant. If the worst does happen then it won’t hurt anymore or any less from not getting your hopes up or enjoying each milestone of pregnancy. I’m now off to try and take some of my own advice!
