Pregnancy anxiety

I am 5 weeks along and find that above all else I feel so incredibly nervous about both the things that will be happening with my body and actually having a baby. I feel like I can't even be excited because of my nerves. Anyone relate?

Re: Pregnancy anxiety

  • I am having a lot of anxiety too, but mostly it is fear of miscarriage.  I worry about it a lot, but have read that is normal.  I do have some fear of the actual birth.

  • Scared out of my mind.... but we'll be fine. :) Best of luck to you. 
  • You're not alone!  I was terrified of m/c and refused to tell anyone we were expecting (except for my parents and my sister) until we were a solid 13 weeks along.  Don't worry, you'll settle down and relax and enjoy....  eventually :-)

  • Definitely not alone!! I was always afraid of something while pregnant, miscarriage, then of actually becoming a parent, and then of delivery. I still have some worries (early on it was of SIDs now it's of starting finger foods and lo choking), but my anxiety is far less now. You'll be fine! :)
