Anxiety with pregnancy

Hi all,

I have a beautiful 2 year old but unfortunately had a MMC in Feb this year. I am now pregnant (third trimester) but my anxiety is still so high since having my MMC. I worry myself sick about everything. I wanted to ask if anyone had any advice on how to calm yourself down?

I was walking down the stairs not long ago and my son left a toy that I didn't see and I lost my footing a little. I was holding onto the side anyway so I didn't fall. But situations like this make me super anxious and I worry I did any harm even though I know I didn't fall or anything 😫 it's so frustrating and feel like I'm going mad x

Sorry for your loss.

Look up grounding techniques - I had talking therapy for health anxiety in pregnancy and this is one of the techniques I still use. You could also speak to your midwife as you can be fast tracked in pregnancy for talking therapy.
