I guess worry is part of the game, and when you had such a rough time early on, I can't blame you for being extra worried. What sucks is we all know worrying does nothing to actually help or hinder the outcome of events, yet none of us can stop doing it! Pregnancy forces you to acknowledge just how complex the human body is, and DAMN, that's really scary.
All I can say is, don't let the worry stomp all over your happiness. I keep on telling myself that it's not actually a crime to feel optimistic about this kid, and I hate that I have to feel like it's somehow a copout for me to feel good about this once in a while, instead of my standard-gripped-with-worry-and-uncertainty schtick. If you can, maybe you can drag yourself out of that trap, too.
