Nervous and stressed
I just had a baby march of 2023. I am now 9 weeks pregnant 6 months postpartum and I'm stressed and incredibly anxious. We were being cautious but apparently not enough. I had some serious health problems on the birth control I tried after having my son so I stopped it. I had only ever used the combination pill before and assumed the progesterone only was similar so 48 hours after my last dose would've fine right? Apparently not. I'm not upset about being pregnant again, we had been discussing a 3rd in the future. But I am upset about how soon it is. I'm afraid for my health. Im afraid for my two children I already have. My youngests birth was traumatic. I hemorrhaged really badly and almost died. My oldest son was visiting when the hemorrhage was noticed and he saw all the blood, he saw me faint, all he saw as he was being carried out of the room was me barely conscious surrounded by a wall of nurses and so much blood over the bed and floor. Hes only 3. And now every time he sees me bleeding he starts crying. It doesn't matter how small. I'm afraid of dying and leaving my children alone. I'm afraid of hemorrhaging again. I'm afraid that my.body hasn't had time to heal sufficiently. Sorry for the long post, I just needed to put this out there, its been weighing on me for days.
