How do I stop constantly worrying about a miscarriage?

I have been extra worried lately. I am 15w3d. The last heartbeat appt was at 12 weeks and it was fine. Yet I am still worried.
I tried ordering a fetal doppler today, the place never called me back. It is the weekend now and my clinic is closed for the weekend so I can’t go in.
I am just so sad right now.
I had a miscarriage before this pregnancy early on.
I keep thinking my baby might be dead. I read about missed miscarriages (where you miscarry but you don’t bleed or cramp, and you don’t know about it until your doctor tells you) so I keep thinking this has happened/will happen.

The best thing to do is not stress!!! very bad for you. Take it one day at a time. I was the same way and ordered one and actually checked the heart beat everyday! It’s hard when it’s before you feel the baby moving around. But Honestly just try and relax. I’m sure everything will be fine. Stay positive and congratulations best of luck to you!!!!
There is no way to stop worrying. You will worry throughtout your whole pregnancy. It is perfectly normal. It is best if you try to relax and not think about it because of your own peace of mind. Plus, you are almost there. The ob/gyn sayd MOST miscarriages happend within the first 14 weeks of pregnancy and after that chances lower dramatically. You woun’t be safER until 22 weeks, but you are past the most dangerous stage. Pray to GOD every night to take care of your little angel and he will.
Every pregnancy is different, and you are already past the first trimester so there is less chance of it now -don’t worry.
I had a missed miscarriage the first time, the baby died at 8wk but I stayed preg until 12wk, then I miscarried naturally. I’m 6wk preg now, but I’m in the same situation of being a little aprehensive about things, there is no garuntee but you just got to enjoy being preg now and what will be will be.
