How to stop being paranoid?

Question

Hi ladies... I’m 22 weeks pregnant and since i became pregnant I’ve had a horrible fear of miscarriage or stillbirth.  It’s my first pregnancy, and i feel like my fear is making me not be able to function in my everyday life.  I’m so scared that i haven’t even talked to my baby yet.... everyone says to feel your bump and to talk to your baby but I’m so scared to lose him that I don’t even call him by his name.  I feel absolutely horrible about it but I’m so scared something will happen and I’ll have to feel that heartbreak... if anyone has any similar feelings/ stories/ how to get over this fear I’d really appreciate it. I don’t know what to do anymore😔

Answer

It’s totally normal to feel that way. I’m on my third pregnancy with no kids yet and I have yet to really talk to my bump (36 weeks!) and I only refer to her as “the baby” instead of her name. I’m still paranoid about that type of thing too. You’ll get more comfortable as your pregnancy progresses.

Answer

It’s normal to have these worries. I did when I was pregnant. I was scared about my physical job working me too much and then having complications. I would freak out when I worked too much as well. You are out of the miscarriage zone because you are in second trimester! I gave birth to a healthy little girl after having the same worries as you. Just know it’s normal to feel this way and try not to think about it too much. Connect and talk with your baby! I miss the feeling of it. You deserve to have that amazing feeling!
