Birth anxiety

I would start with GP who would probably advice talking therapy or crisis team. There is a perinatal community mental health team as well but you’d need referred. Hope you’re okay! Don’t be afraid to talk to friends/family as well and those who you feel would understand :)

If you tell your midwife she should be able to refer you to the perinatal mental health team - in my area they have a specific birth anxiety team who you can be put in touch with. Maybe see if there’s something like that available for you? X

Yes! Ask your midwife, tokophobia is probably more common than you realise and they can refer you for support 🙂

Thank you everyone! I have a midwife appointment on Wednesday so I will mention it xx
