Positive advice on anxiety

I’m 5+4 and it’s my first pregnancy. I am suffering with really bad anxiety. I had to have a scan at 5 weeks due to location being question but that was confirmed in the right place with sac and yolk sac. Being pregnant is all I have ever wanted yet my anxiety and worry is through the roof. I can’t focus day to day and am on count down until the next scan. Can any one offer any positive advice or help how to ease anxiety and think positive? Xxx

I’m like you I’m anxious all the time and I’m in the second trimester for me the anxiety will not go away, it’s my forst pregnancy and I worry all the time some days are beta then others but I’m getting more anxious know I no my 20weeks scan is in 2 weeks and I haven’t seen baby since I was 12 weeks, so I’m praying baby is well and growing perfectly xx

Keep yourself busy, that’s the best advice I can give. If I’m at the office and working Im totally fine. If I’m at home, I catch myself spiralling for no good reason 😵‍💫

I am the same too I’m 5 weeks and 1 day and it’s my first ever pregnancy and my anxiety and anxiousness is just through the roof x

Preterm labor

I am very worried that I am in preterm labor. I am 33w and 34w on Tuesday.
I’ve had contractions (my stomach gets hard all over). They go away and come back all day long since Sunday. I’m well hydrated.
Pelvic pressure is hit and miss some days.
Backaches there lower back
And last digestive crap been hitting me to kinda.
She’s moving fine. She gives me hell every day. My one worry about her wanting to come early is her weight. 31w I had an ultrasound (semi high risk, 22q deletion positive baby) and her weight was 3.4 not what it should be. So I’m worried about her being not enough weight.
Probably should call my doc but they’ll say go be put on monitor which, childcare for my 16 months son not easy right now.
Grandma and grandpa are third shifters.

Breech

Should I be worried that my baby is breech at 25 weeks? 😊

I got to see a teeny little heartbeat today 🥹

This is my first pregnancy and I’ve been horrendously stressed, I’m so grateful to see this little heart beating away, it really calmed my nerves ❤️

Due date but no sign of baby

Today is my due date and I’ve not had any of the typical signs of going into labor anytime soon. I can’t stop crying today I just feel mentally and physically done being pregnant and ready to meet my baby. I have cabin fever and starting to resent my partner for still being able to live life normally. Booked for an induction next Friday if nothing happens but that feels like ages away. Is anyone else in the same boat?
