Anxiety solutions

Can any one recommend any natural, safe during pregnancy solutions for anxiety?

I'm sick of this heaving feeling on my chest and being unable to sleep!

Mindfulness works for me. I was taught it after having post natal anxiety with DD1.

I would have a look at something homoeopathic - it'll be best to see a registered homoeopath or remedies are sold in some pharmacies and health food shops. There are a few remedies which help with anxiety and I'm sure you'll find something that suits you.

You could also try aromatherapy - possibly a bit woo for MN Grin - but Neal's Yard have several oils which help you keep calm and others designed to take the edge off hormonal emotions. You put a few drops in an oil burner and just enjoy the scent...

Best of luck, it's horrid feeling anxious when you should be all cosy and relaxed in bed.
