Health anxiety can really be overwhelming; have you ever spoken to a profession to learn how to manage it and help lower the anxiety it causes? A persons mind can imagine or fear some really terrible things and you don’t need that additional anxiety especially when pregnancy is anxiety provoking all on its own. I hope you are able to find a way to put your mind at ease. GL and congratulations on the pregnancy
