Anxiety while pregnant

[adag]

Hello
My first time posting and looking for some reassurance I guess... I'm 5 months pregnant with my second child and suffering high levels of anxiety (which is making me anxious that I might be doing harm to the baby) ... we're in the process of buying a new house which is a bit of a wreck and currently staying with relatives as we had to complete our sale early...I'm working full time in a pretty demanding role and it's a really tough commute, hard on nursery drop off and pick up... plus the change of circumstance has left my daughter hugely clingy and really impacted her sleep (and mine!). My husband works away a lot and long hours when he is home so can't offer much support. I'm suddenly really panicked about living in a building site with a new born (we were planning to rent but my husband has changed his mind on that, thinks too expensive). It's all off the back of a stressful year (miscarriage, mum had cancer treatment) and as my last pregnancy was pretty complicated I have to fit in scans every couple of weeks (thankfully all progressing well at this point)... I feel totally overwhelmed but don't really feel I have the sort of job or family where I can admit that ... just looking for some advice or coping mechanisms ... thank you!!!!!

I'm in exactly the same boat. Really bad anxiety and lots of physical symptoms with it e.g. nausea and racing heart. Also petrified its hurting baby but had lots or reassurance from professionals. PM me if you want xxx

Sorry you’ve had such a tough time recently. Your dp should reconsider renting. All the programmes I’ve seen on tv day you will be living in dust and dirt the whole time, which sounds awful when you have a baby and child to consider, though I get it costs money it may be the best way forward even for a brief period until the rooms you need most are done (kitchen, bathroom, a room to live/sleep in).
