Anxiety

Please tell me im not the only one, baby is 3 weeks tomorrow we have been out a fair bit and I'm usually OK but today we went to lakeside (Shopping centre) I become over welmed with anxiety no real reason I panic baby is gonna catch something ( LO was taken away at birth to intensive care i did not see her for 5 hours due to emergency csection and baby being not well I do not know if this is the reason). I can't stop thinking something is going to go wrong.

This is really common I had PPA with my first and I've only really realised how bad it was now that I have just had my second baby!
I would recommend looking to get some support - PANDAs is a really good place to start but you can also contact your GP and see what suggestions they have:

Yes totally normal. I’m fine in the day & then in the evening I suddenly feel really anxious about him, his health etc x

I feel the exact same. My anxiety at night is out of control and I spend most of the evening in tears!

I'm glad it's sort of normal to feel this way I literally broke down in tears when out for no reason, I agree night times are horrible I just stare at her all the time making sure her breathing is OK, then convince myself it's not. 😣

Confused Over Test Result

My heads pretty blagged about this atm. I’ve had spotting & some cramping but of the 2 tests I’d have expected the clear blue one to be most accurate. Any advice?

2nd baby

Anyone who’s had their 2nd baby, when did you go into labour compared to your first?

Palpitations and out of breath

Anyone else dealing with heart palpitations and running out of breath super quickly?

I already spoke to my midwife, and they put me on magnesium and extra electrolytes and said if it doesn’t help, to tell them again. I have my next OB appointment on Tuesday and I plan on bringing it back up when I see her then, but I feel like my shortness of breath has just gotten increasingly worse and the dizziness is now off and on when I used to not get it before.

Anyone else has that experience?

I am 30 weeks on Wednesday (March 25) with a C-section scheduled for end of May.
