Hello everyone I haven't posted on here in a while as I have been doing better finally well somewhat better as to be expected with this anxiety.

I just wanted to ask if anyone else had their anxiety flare up while pregnant and if so how did you deal with it?

Hi wow it seems people aren't getting the questions or post answered huh?

Ummm my pregnancy depended on each one (4)

•was ok on my first but then depression hit post delivery

•second anxiety was there in the last month

•3rd no anxiety

•4th anxiety in the first 3 months of pregnancy and last month of pregnancy

So everyone is different you might be lucky and it only last the first months and ok the last but it's different for everyone

Hey yaz thank you for the response. So I guess I will just have to wait n see how things go. Fingers crossed it will all go smoothly :)

And yeah is there just not a lot of people using the site? So many people are waiting days for responses. Kinda sad really.

Hope so. So far the pregnancy symptoms have triggered some anxiety but I try n stay calm. Easier said than done most days.

Oh I hear you :)

Try taking short walks (if u can) and free ur mind.

Since it's safer then taking things for anxiety :)

Pick up a fulfilling hobby.

Think about the lil one inside of you, talk to him/her when u feel anxious

Congratulations on your lil one.

It's my second baby and my lil one is just over 4 so I'm super excited/nervous.

I will deff try that. Talking to the baby when I start to feel anxious. Never hurts to try and it just may work :)
