Anxiety during pregnancy

Hi guys 👋

So, I have always struggled with anxiety, last year it was my worst, when I was waiting for test results which in the end were absolutely fine.

My first pregnancy I was absolutely fine, I had no anxiety, I also had the support of my then partner.

I’m currently now 9 weeks pregnant, the daddy doesn’t live with me, he lives in his hometown and I live in mine as it has happened very fast and we weren’t seeing each other for that long, so it was a shock to us both(I was on the pill)

2 weeks ago, my anxiety got the better of me and I have had an awful lump in my throat that has gotten better as I don’t feel as stressed or anxious, but I was wondering if there’s any other mummy’s out there who have suffered with terrible anxiety and if there is anything you can take or do during pregnancy to help it.

I’ve tried meditating but that didn’t work.

I don’t know what I’m anxious about but it could be anything, I had an early scan which showed a heartbeat so I know it isn’t that, I’m ok financially so it isn’t that, I do often wonder how am I going to love a new baby when I already have a little toddler, me and the dad being in separate places maybe? I’ve lost all motivation with work so could that also be another reason? The day before work I always get worried because I secretly don’t want to work anymore because of my anxiety.

I just need some help, any help, I would appreciate it

Thank you
