Adult separation anxiety in early pregnancy

1 reply

ReRom · 11/11/2021 20:40

Hi! Im wondering if anyone has had bad separation anxiety or something similar at the very start of their pregnancy?

My only pregnancy ended in a miscarriage really early on and before I even tested, I really didnt want to be away from my husband. It was our first time spending a couple of nights apart since being married. (Hed gone to watch a football final with mates). Anyway, recently Ive been feeling the same thing, like being upstairs while hes downstairs is too far apart. The only other time Ive felt like that is when I was finding out I was pregnant last time. Its a little too soon to test still but I just wanted to know if anyone had the same?

Sorry about your loss OP. When I was suffering badly from anxiety a couple of years ago (not pregnancy-related), I had something similar. Friday night was his night for staying up and gaming, and I would honestly have liked to curl up in a doggy bed at his feet just to be close. So maybe it's an anxiety symptom rather than something specific to pregnancy. It would make sense, you must be apprehensive. I hope everything works out for you.
