Support needed.

I am starting to fear taking care of my little man once he is born. Around 24 weeks i started having non epileptic seizures, and around 25 weeks i started having tremors and vocal tics. With the tremors and seizure i have intense pain in my whole entire body. If i could guess what death felt like, the pain that i feel before and after these would be it. I fear that these will not go away after Hayden is born and i will struggle to take care of him. No one understands the intensity of the pain that i experience and i have a doctors appoitment wednesday to go over these symptoms. I also got reffered to a neurologist for everything that is happening. need some encouragment :(

Aww, thank you everyone! You guys made me feel so much better. Before this pregnancy i hadn't had one seizure, tremor, or tic. These are all new experiences for me. I always try my best to remain calm and hope that all of these will subside in 8 weeks and a couple days when i have my little man, it is just so new. Thanks again for making me feel more comfortable with this and making me realize that i am strong and will be able to do whatever it takes to provide for my little man

First of all I thank God for granting you the strength to carry your beautiful son through your conditions. :) Kudos Mommy! I am very young, 21, and have the slightest clue what you are enduring but I will say that you will make it through. God, at least the one I turn, will not take us through anything he knows for sure we will not be able to handle. I have faith that you will be an remarkable mother. You are already stronger than most ladies out here.. you just have to not doubt yourself. You will be fine! Keep your mind strong :)...

Pregnancy can cause a big increase in seizures, and other major issues a woman has before pregnancy, or developed during pregnancy. I would take it one day at a time, wait and see how you're feeling after you deliver. Did you have this before pregnancy, and if so, how bad? If it's something that's just started during pregnancy, there's a big chance it will stop after delivery, I would get all the help you can for a while after you deliver, and hope everything goes great!
