Pregnancy Anxiety
I’m pregnant with baby #2 and my anxiety has been real bad with this pregnancy. I had a chemical in March (first loss I’ve experienced) but got pregnant in April with my baby boy. I’m 14 weeks tomorrow and at the 12 week scan everything looked great. Growth on track, heartbeat perfect, and my vitals came back normal. I had to get my liver rechecked because the numbers were high at my first appointment but my doctor said it could have been due to my morning sickness. I had been diagnosed with mild preeclampsia with my daughter and had to get induced. I had fairly high BP the entire end of my pregnancy. We had a NICU stay a couple days after she was born due to jaundice. I’m just so worried this time around. I want everything to go okay and it just scares me how normal a pregnancy can be until it’s not anymore. I’m dealing with so much anxiety this time around (and I don’t typically struggle with anxiety ever) and I’m not sure how to cope with it. It’s not debilitating, my mind is just filled with all the “what if’s” because i just want nothing more than my happy and healthy baby boy and now not only do I have my husband but I have my daughter who needs me too. I guess i just need to vent and feel like I’m not alone. Not being able to go to the doctor but once a month doesn’t help either but again; i know that’s normal and a good thing I don’t need check ups more often. Just frustrating
