Feeling terrified.

Cassaundra

I am absolutely terrified of giving birth. I have anxiety and depression and have been diagnosed with PTSD in the past. I’m 34 weeks tomorrow and my anxiety is through the roof.

I started bawling my eyes out today on my way to pick up my boyfriend because I can’t stop stressing. I’ve been told I might have to end in a c section but they’re up to have me try vaginal labor.

I know everyone says your body kicks into gear and my boyfriend reassured me that they have medicine that can calm you down but I am so afraid of having a full blown panic attack.

Can anyone please give me some advice on how to stay calm. I know breathing helps a lot, but even as I’m writing this my heart is racing and I can’t help but cry. ☹️😔

Sorry if this is the wrong group to post in..
