anxiety

[SarahhhLouise]

Well ive begun to notice that everytime i ave an appointment or am nervous/excited about doing something, im always sick before it happens. like before all of my scans except my 2nd 12week scan (only 2-3 days after my 1st) and midwife appointments, ive been sick out of worry for my baby, hoping that their okay, and when i went to the midwife, i was worried incase she didnt find the heartbeat it made me sick and my stomach really hurt before i was sick, it wont be harming the baby, me getting so worked up about things will it? xxx

its normal to worry I'm a total freak when It comes to my bump, try to focus on something else, especially before those stressful moments. Its alot better if you can maintain your stress they have linked it to the attitude your baby will have, ex more calm woman have more calm babies, high stressed woman tend to have babies with sleeping problems/ colic. I personally don't know how true this is but i think about it every time I get stressed and normally will occupy myself some other way.

i'm a naturally very anxious person & know exactly how you feel.. the whole way through my pregnancy if I was really nervous about something then i'd make myself sick (because I felt so nauseous anyway.) I did feel a lot calmer after my scans & when I could feel baby moving regularly. try deep breathing if you feel like that, I know it sounds a bit daft but it really did help me x
