You're going to be just fine, you're not going anywhere from your babies, it's anxiety lying to you. Technology and modern medicines are so advanced now, you have nothing to worry about. Don't let this anxiety take away the joy of this 3rd pregnancy. Try your best to enjoy it, knowing that you're going to be just fine, having a happy healthy pregnancy, delivery and baby 💕

Hi see if you can get some counselling to help you through. CBT would be great and even try some Mindfullness books. Everything was fine with your first 2 so there is no reason for anything to go wrong this time round. Relax and try to think about the things you enjoy about being pregnant and about being a mum xx
