Fear about miscarriage or stillbirth

Heather

Hi everyone,

I’m on my second pregnancy (18 weeks) and every time I see a post about someone who had a miscarriage or stillbirth, I get so anxious and worried that it will happen to me too. It causes me to be extra vigilant about movement (or lack thereof) and even keeps me from feeling as excited about my pregnancy. Does this happen to any of you? How do you deal with this feeling?

I am on medication to address anxiety and depression, and see a behavioral health specialist.
