Hi everyone. To cut a long story short since my child’s birth I have suffered with irrational thoughts that someone will take my baby away and I’m second guessing everything I do. She’s 4 now and I still struggle from time to time with anxiety (not as bad as I used to), I’ve seen the GP a few times about my mental health and take sertraline. I’m now in my 3rd trimester again and I feel like I’m having all of these anxiety’s return and I’m panicking over nothing more and more.

has anyone else here gone through this? It’s crippling.

Does anyone else have any advice?

No advice I'm afraid, but I know what you mean. My baby is 6 months old and lately I feel terrified we might get separated from each other. I feel like it's terrifying having a baby. Something so precious and vulnerable.

Have you told you MW how you are feeling @ARxo? Flowers
