Pre Natal depression?
Show your support
Thank you so much for your response and compassion. I have asked around (Perinatal team and midwife) for local groups. I think I’ll keep looking online as there are not really face to face anymore. I will look at the NCT and I am definitely interested in yoga. Thank you for your help and support x
Hello 👋 so sorry you are feeling like this ☹️ I live in Surrey also, I have also been working with the Perinatal Team due to similar fears. If you wanted someone to chat to feel free to message me, you never know - if we are local enough it could be something we could tackle together, a walk with someone to talk to can do wonders :)
Hey lovely, so sorry to hear you’re feeling this way. I have been struggling with something similar… feeling extremely lonely, not many friends or family around, a lot of stress going on. I work online from home so which doesn’t help with loneliness and I’m 18 weeks on Sunday! I also have a huge gap between my first baby who’s now 10 and I think it’s normal to be feeling anxious about it. Are we the same person?! 🤔 I’m in burgess hill but planning to move to Guildford soon. Please feel free to message me and I’d be happy to meet up and chat too. Don’t be too hard on yourself though, the hormones definitely make everything feel worse ❤️
Hey, sorry you're feeling like this 😔 Are there any bumps and baby groups locally? Or groups for pregnant women? Perhaps your health visitor or doctors can point you in the right direction. The NCT might have something near you, or there might be groups on fb. If it's something you're into, you could see if there are any yoga classes for pregnant women. I appreciate that anxiety might prevent you from wanting to socialise, but it might help a little 😊 I found going for a daily walk helped with my anxiety. It might take time and support, but you will love your baby and yourself and things will get easier.
