Will the anxiety ever go away?

Hi everyone,

I had my first ultrasound at 8w1d on November 26th and everything looked perfect. Baby measured exactly on track with my dates, not even a day behind. Heart rate was 178, which the sonographer said was normal for this stage.....but now I’m overthinking it and worrying it’s too high.

I’m 30 and I’m supposed to do my NIPT in about a week, and I’m terrified of the results. I’m also scared that my 13 week ultrasound will show something wrong.

Before that 8 week scan, I kept telling myself “Once this is done, I’ll stop worrying.” But here I am, still anxious, reading too much online, and spiraling again.

I know pregnancy anxiety is common, but this constant fear is draining me. Has anyone else felt like this even after a reassuring scan? How did you cope?

Any reassurance or similar experiences would help. 💕🙏
