Anxiety and Pregnancy

[louthorn]

I suffer from anxiety and have for many years. My husband really wants a baby and so do I. I am so afraid that I won't do well during the pregnancy due to my anxiety issues. Any advice?

yes go for it i was having the worst anxiety when i found out i was pregnant,it was scary but i explained to the midwife and they helped me through it,i gave birth to a lovely little girl years news eve last year,and i was fine,anxiety aint as bad now either coz she keeps me to busy to sit around dwelling on things,if anything she has helped me,hope this helps

I get anxiety issues at times, but never had them during pregnancy.  The hormones provided a shield, in my case.
