Bad anxiety

[sophkennedy]

Hi I'm new here and thought joining this would help ease my anxiety. I'm 13 weeks and due end of October. But ever since I found out I was pregnant I've been anxious. I worry all the time about if I'm doing things right and if I'll be able to cope when the baby's born. I'm also really anxious I won't love/bond with the baby when it's here. Please tell me I'm not alone in this!

Hi OP I’m just bumping for you

There are services offered to pregnant woman for their mental health. Please speak to your midwife about how you are feeling.

And don’t worry about bonding. Usually those things take care of themselves. I took a total strip when I fell pregnant with my last one. Couldn’t even walk down the baby aisle in Asda until I was 36 weeks but when he arrived I was besotted. How you feel in pregnancy isn’t a true marker to how you’ll feel afterwards.

@gamerchick thank you I'll definitely talk to my midwife about my anxiety. That's made me feel a lot better knowing you felt like that thank you
