My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?

Hormones doesn't help. But also I think it's not said enough that pregnancy is already a life changing. We usually know that having a baby is life changing but we expect it to be once baby is here. But pregnancy is already very vulnerable and everything changes. You already don't feel yourself and most of the time women feels bad physically during pregnancy and also sometimes there's no support at all from partner, family or friends ... There's a lot of reasons to feel confused, depressed and out of her own body. I felt all this during my first pregnancy.

I feel like I’ve been dealing with prenatal depression this pregnancy.

I have been having really bad anxiety lately and I already dealt with not being pregnant but I was able to calm myself down now being pregnant it takes a little longer to I haven’t been able to sleep till like 3-4 in am I heard is due to all the hormones and this is my 3rd baby and never felt like this or not that I remember. But my kids are all 5.5-6 years apart so this feels new to me
Hey loves, I feel like I am stopping and starting labour all the time haha. I wanted spontaneous labour but this has been going on for the last week. Although the last few days things feel like they ramping up. I went into docs for reduced movements last week and they told me that there was loads of tightenings so could be braxton hicks or labour. Last night I was having tightenings which I could feel coming and would end quite low down. No constancy though. Feeling so much pain down there and it's super heavy. Lightening croch is also a different level of pain. I'm so excited for baby. Anything else got the same thing going on? How are you all feeling?
