Anxious & generally low

Is this anyone’s second pregnancy. I am about 7 weeks pregnant with no.2 and am riddled with anxiety about everything at the moment. I feel incredibly low & panicky but I’m not sure what I feel panicky or anxious about. I can’t quite put my finger on it. Increasingly feeling lonely and isolated with these feelings too. I have seen the GP and am due to see her again at the end of March. I guess nothing in life feels very certain at the moment & I don’t know what to expect with 2 children. I did not feel like this the first time round. I have had an early scan and all is OK. I’m not worried about the baby. Currently sat on the kitchen for while no.1 naps feeling very teary!

I completely understand you. I felt this exact way with by number 1. It didn’t help the I had HG which messed up with my head. I had to speak to talking therapy till the end of the pregnancy. You can’t quite put a finger on what is making you anxious. Thankfully so far for this one, I am 6 weeks in and telling myself I have done this before, this feeling will pass is helping me. Hoping it gets better, if it does maybe as your GP to refer you to talking therapy. Good luck ❤️

I’ve felt a lot like this with no.2, I’m not sure why either! I think I’m feeling quite emotional about my first growing up etc as well.

I literally can't stop crying and I feel SO low with this second pregnancy, it is so so hard, sending you a big hug! I try to remember how much the hormones are probably impacting my mood and also that the feelings will come and go 💕 but I am with you 100%

Thank you so much for replying. Genuinely really appreciate it, it makes me feel slightly less alone. I never expected to feel this way. I also just feel very low @Emma 😌
