I have had a couple of weeks off work due to exhaustion and I think it has given me too much time to think!
I'm 27 weeks pregnant and I am severely emetophobic (phobia of vomiting) don't question why I got pregnant etc I knew it was a risk.
I'm starting to feel sick a lot from acid.. but the thing I am terrified of is being sick during labour. I have read all these horror stories of people being sick from the first contraction to the delivery! I am having images of me throwing up all over the hospital bed or waking in the middle of the night labour starting by me being sick.. my anxiety is so bad at the moment I'm having panic attacks and only sleeping a few hours a night.. anyone have any advice or experience? I'm so scared.
