Does anybody else have very serious irrational fears? The further I get into this pregnancy the worse they get. I'm due in a little over a week and the last time I left my house I freaked out on the way home and the time before that I ended up having such bad anxiety that I started crying. I seriously can't be in a car without my stomach being in knots. I'm terrified I'll get into a car accident and lose my baby. And whenever I feel her move differently or more than usual (her movements have settled down the past 2 weeks) my brain automatically assumes the worst. I think of really horrible things like her inhaling meconium or her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck and her struggling in my belly and this wave of fear washes over me. I try to be rational about it, I really do. But these thoughts won't quit. I can't lose my rainbow. I want her here already.

And of course right now she's not moving (after I ate a Popsicle and am lying on my left side) and it's worrying me. Ugh.

awe I be feeling the same way and this is my first time being pregnant, I get anxiety attacks sometimes like last Sunday my 3year old brother was not listening too me and he was very disrespectful, embarrassed Me in front of ppl and I walked away and cried hard , I was thinking how am I gonna be able too try and control my own child and be patient if I can't now. so i think its quite normal for ftm too feel this way, and try not too worry or stress about it. i try not too as well and sometimes I wanna scream and cry, cuz ion think I'm ready. BTW I'm a single mom and her dad refuses too be in her life. so trust me my stress level has went sky high but u gotta think bout babies health it's not good.

when u catch yourself having an anxiety attack go watch a funny video it always helps me or since I'm a christian I pray or go out for some air or even breath in and out slowly a couple times. I learned that all those things really help me, please when I feel like I'm starting too stress out or have an anxiety attack I talk too my baby, and tell myself and her that its gonna be OK. your fine. I'm fine.

I feel the same way!! It is horrible. Sometimes I want to ask for an early induction just because I know she will be here safe and Alive. I'm so scared to wake up 1 day and not feel her moving there and panicking! And I'm scared of her being stillborn I know it's me being negative but this is my rainbow baby too and I wish she would just hurry and come on her own😔 my dr. Won't induce me 😭

I think the worry and anxiety is the hardest part about being a mom
