Hi there, I definitely did probably more so with my second. I don't know why my second was worse but it just was. When your hormones are going crazy because you are pregnant it plays up the balance of your brain chemicals. It will calm down and return to normal when your hormone levels have evened out. I didn't believe my doctor and thought I was going crazy but she was right. My anxiety and low mood and thoughts calmed down at around 3-4 months. You will be fine just hang in there the symptoms should calm down on their own but if you are unsure then go see your doctor for reassurance.

Hi holly I'm 38 weeks this week and I had a lot f high anxiety the start because of all the hormones ... I know it's hard . I have drunk a lot of cold water in this pregnancy and has helped me...well I feel it has helped me stay calm at times . I also began to read again and bough some anxiety books

Yes I just had my baby 3 months ago I felt like it was bad in the beginning and at the end.
