Hi apple.

Congratulations. Your consultant sounds great too. My blood pressure was high when expecting my (now 8yr old) daughter. I did fear I would lose her but she was determined! Though I was lucky and did not have anxiety til after she was born.

Our mind does try to play tricks, but just because something happened before doesn't mean it will happen again. Just because it rained last Tuesday, doesn't mean it will this Tuesday...

Try to keep your mind occupied. I find reading a good mystery helps, because I'm always trying to guess whodunnit. Treat yourself well, and make sure you get time to take a relaxing bath, go for a walk somewhere nice, make time for yourself. Practice relaxing breathing exercises, they are always handy... And take care of yourself. [^]

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
