Keep waking up in fear of something wrong with my baby?

Question

Hey so I’m 26 weeks and 6 days pregnant and I don’t know if I should bring it up to my doctor but I keep waking up in like panics and frantic over the fear of something wrong with my baby. It’s becoming more and more my sleep is disrupted by if happening over and over, I just want it to stop and enjoy my pregnancy without worry that I can’t protect my daughter.

Answer

I was like this with my first pregnancy. Even with the second, it’ll hit me sometimes. I’m 33 weeks with twins & the other night, one of them wasn’t moving as much as she usually does & I worked myself up until I got a bad bout of Braxton Hicks. I was miserable all day. Luckily, I had an OB appointment scheduled anyway & I got to hear heartbeats & little girl had perked up throughout the day. Her lack of movement was also probably in my head since I was, you know, SLEEPING for most of the night & might’ve missed movements. Definitely talk to your doc about your anxiety or anyone close to you that will make you feel better. The last thing you want is to stress yourself out because that’s not healthy for either of you.
