Worries and anxiety - first trimester, first baby
Hi Alex
I'm only 8 and a half weeks pregnant and I'm feeling a lot of anxiety about the potential for miscarriage, even though I've already seen the heartbeat last week and my morning sickness is still in full swing. A few days ago i noticed a bit of discharge on the toilet paper when i wipe - its a brown colour and i haven't had any serious pains or anything, and its really small amounts. I also get some aches in my lower tummy but they dont really hurt and never last long. Should i be worried about either of these? Is it normal? Im finding it hard not to worry about everything....this is my first baby

Answer:
Hi,
This all sounds very normal and to be expected. Try not to worry too much it is worrying in early pregnancy that everything is going to be alright but in a few weeks you should feel more assured that things are going well.
Best wishes,
Alex.
