It is. When my son was 15 weeks and just diagnosed with tracheonalicia gerd and reactive airway disease the dr told me the gerd could burn a hole through his under developed trachea and because his traecha was collapsing it was very important I watch him constantly to make sure his airway is opened enough to breath. I cried so hard and I was sitting with my grandpa feeling sorry for my son and not thinking I could handle this. My grandpa said to me "you will never be given anything that god doesnt think you can handle. You have been chosen to care for this boy because you can. You are attentive and you hold so much love for this boy. God gave you him because youre the only one he felt was strong enough assetive enough and brave enough to care and love him. You will get through this. Then he said a quote. Tough times never last but tough people do. And he pointed to both my son and I. My sons trachea fully developed he had 3 successful surgerys his lungs are stronger and we have an excellent treatment plan. It's hard to stay positive and my anxiety is always in edge but each day I don't think I can i replay that convo in my head and I keep moving. It's a struggle. I love my son with every ounce of me. I just need support to help me through my mental state

I don’t have Ehler’s but I have 2 nieces that do so I understand a little bit of what you’re going through. I know it’s hard but try not to stress. I know when my niece is stressed it seems her Ehler’s symptoms are the worst.

I have worked with for 1.5 yrs at a mental health center and with a therapist to learn tools. I was done with the program. I didnt realize how hard it would be without meds. I use to have panic attacks had ativan to help now I cant do that and its hard to focus. My hormones are all over the place and I cry over everything. I'm trying its just hard

I used to be on medication for two years for my anxiety and weaned off slowly before I was trying to conceive. Now I’m medicine free but NOT anxiety free lol. It’s a challenge every day and I’ve started taking therapy and it’s helping so much she gives me real techniques how to get a grip on my anxiety....it can be overcome its mind over matter..but it’s a process..one that takes time, techniques, and determination..being pregnant doesn’t help either Sometimes I’m paranoid something gonna happen to baby & sometimes I still don’t believe I will get to hold my baby but I keep trying to positive talk as hard as it is..

And I stopped my meds because they were not ok for pregnancy they could cause risks to the baby

I worked with a therapist and went to mental health groups fir a yr and a half. I stopped going because I was at the point where I felt I needed to move on because they were aggervating me. I was on medication then and discussing weaning off then I found out I was pregnant. I learned some coping skills but I didnt realize being off the medication would not be easy. Ita just affecting me alot now and I'm not sure if its because of the discharge I cant help but jump to the worst case scenario. My boyfriend is super supportive but he doesnt know how to help me. He reccommended finding support with other pregnant moms abd to talk about what I'm going through. I'm not sure if im hormonal and have normal anxiety or if its just my anxiety over powering me.

I stopped my meds at 4.5 weeks cold turkey. Elhers danlos is a connective tissue defect. I dislocate easily I have pain all the time. My connective tissue is so flimsy I'm very flexible. The discharge is what im not comfortable with at all. I want the baby to be checked to ease my mind but they wont unless I'm bleeding red which luckily I'm not.

Why did u quit talking ur meds? And what is alhers danlos syndrome? But hang in there momma and ik it's hard but stress is no good on baby try to relax
