Anxiety ? At 35 weeks

Question

I have been having awful anxiety for no reason I have everything done for the baby and ready. Everything is good in my life but there are times in the day where I feel like my heart is racing and I feel like a want to scream.
I’m trying to walk more to see if that helps but I feel like I’m losing my mind.
Other than

the anxiety which I get 2 Or 3 times a day I’m completely fine. 
Is this something normal or should I be talking with my Dr? 
I have no history of mental health problems.

Answer

With everything going on in the world right now, you are not alone with these anxious feelings. We haven’t experienced a pandemic like this in our lifetime and bringing a baby into so much uncertainty is nerve wrecking. I feel the same way. If you feel comfortable talking with your doctor about it, then you should. For me, I’m just trying to focus on the joy and happiness my new baby will bring in just a couple weeks. We’ll get through this. Stay strong!

Answer

I definitely struggle with anxiety while pregnant and postpartum. I would have a candid talk with your doctor about it now, so she can be aware of it and keep checking on you in case you both decide treatment is necessary. My advice would be not to let it get it of hand. If it starts affecting your day to day and altering how you would normally do things, definitely get some extra help. I waited way too long, but once I finally got treatment, I started enjoying things again, and felt healthier overall. 💞

Answer

I have had anxiety from the get go...just always concerned that something is wrong with the baby...I wish I could get out of my head and just look forward to the baby instead of being scared that something bad will happen.
