It is natural to worry about your pregnancy for anyone! The best thing you can do is get the pregnancy confirmed by your doctor. One previous miscarriage does not mean that this one will have an increased chance of miscarrying too. So just try to relax the best that you can. I know that is hard though.
Getting prenatal care early and often is the best thing you can do. The doctor can do an ultrasound to confirm a heart beat and as the pregnancy progresses the doctor will check the heart beat at every checkup externally (which should be about every four weeks). This will help keep track of the baby's progress and make sure that everything is ok.
And if you haven't already started, getting on a prenatal vitamin will help fill in any missing gaps in your diet. You can buy prenatals over the counter at any grocery store or pharmacy.
