Anxiety
I’m 32 weeks as a solo mum by choice.
For the last 3 days I’ve been unable to keep any food down and Im being jolted out of my sleep with anxiety every 30/40 mins. But I can’t put my finger on exactly why… feeling like I’m not going to be a good enough mum, like I’ve made a mistake going down this path. When all I’ve ever wanted is a family of my own.
These are the exact symptoms I’ve had when suffering from anxiety in the past… I’m afraid to talk to anyone about it in case they think I’m unfit to be a mother.
Help?!
What shall I do?

Please talk to your OB! I had so much anxiety my first pregnancy and I mistook those attacks for asthma and was making it worse by using my steroid inhaler. This time around I told her I was having like 4 attacks a day and just random and I couldn’t get over them. I definitely had all the normal fears still but the attacks were just intense. I was referred to a psychiatrist and therapist and it’s been helping so much. I’ve gone from 4 to maybe 1 a day. Getting help makes you the opposite of an unfit mom, you’re doing what you can to be mentally healthy for your baby. You made a choice for yourself that I’m more than sure was the right one cuz we mommas don’t just do things without thinking of every possible outcome first
