Even when a baby is very much wanted, pregnancy is a time when women experience a whole variety of emotions, one of the most prominent of which is anxiety. Women who have had problems in conceiving a baby may be extremely anxious about whether they will be able to hold on to this pregnancy.

Women who have had previous miscarriages are fearful until they are well beyond the last date at which they previously lost a baby. You may feel frightened all the time because of your previous miscarriage or miscarriages, and you may feel worried about whether you are going to have another miscarriage or not. So previous miscarriages can cause mixed reactions with your current or future pregnancies.

Women who have given birth to a baby who afterwards died or who was disabled can spend nine months is a in a strained state of wondering whether the same thing might happen again, anxiety during pregnancy might be a very common feeling for this category of women also. If you are baby died during labour or after he is born, maybe because of some heart defects or similar reasons, your current pregnancy might be incredible worrying for you and you might lose your confidence at all in having a healthy new baby. Acknowledging this might be the first step in taking measure precautions for your current or future pregnancies to actually develop without any other similar problems.

Some women really enjoy being pregnant, sail through it with no problems and anxiety during pregnancy is a completely absent feeling for them; others are surprised by no heightened their emotions are and how the sense of responsibility is overwhelming.

Your outlook on life changes and ordinary everyday activities take on a new importance.

Whenever you learn that you have become pregnant, there could be a wide spectrum of emotions. You might feel: scared, happy, excited, and yes especially stress. So, how does stress during pregnancy affect your term? Truthfully it can have long-standing affects on your baby even after birth.

It can be almost impossible for you to be constantly happy during the entire term of your pregnancy, with hormones battling for your sanity and the feelings of responsibility for a new child. It’s totally fine to have a little case of the baby blues here and there, but always complaining on negative pieces of your life: (for example, finances or your problematic relationships) can only give you more cause for concern during pregnancy.

There is More to Keeping Healthy While Pregnant than Just Food!

Keeping your nutrition in check, and maintaining the health of your new baby are first and foremost on your list of priorities will make gigantic benefits for your newborn-inside & ouside the womb. Your child has a lot to lose or gain from your thoughts and feeling while you are pregnant.

Research has discovered that stress during pregnancy will translate into health problems for your baby later on.Stress during pregnancy can also affect your babys immune system, and also affects their birth weight.

Negative thoughs and low birth weight in newborns has been linked in research, and it also has the ability to alter your childs temperament and neurobehavioral development.

How Do I Stop Stress During Pregnancy?

You may not be able to trick yourself into feeling stress free, but here are my favorite two things that I learned to help relive my stress during pregnancy.

- Exercise. This may feel like more of a burden and stress inducer than release at first. But getting off your butt and going out for a good walk on a beautiful day or doing something active when you feel stress during pregnancy will release those endorphins and will help you feel much better by kicking away your stress during pregnancy.

-Meditation. Pick up a few CDs the next time you are out that help you relax and zone out. Meditation is a awesome way to hit pause on your life, and to really revel in the awesomeness of becoming a mommy. Enjoy the quiet moments while you have them, the little one will not give you any time to meditate once he arrives!

While gone my Mother left my daughter alone on the main level of the house after making coffee. My Mother had gone to the upper level to have her coffee and smoke a cigarette (IN the house) which really upsets me. While gone my daughter managed to get into the kitchen make herself some toast (NOT allowed but she does know how) and tried to make herself a coffee like Grandma. My Mother came downstairs to my daughter screaming – she poured coffee all over herself and had red burned skin (won’t scar according to doctor). In the past 3 weeks WHILE my Mother was watching my children my son had taken Advil while she was smoking outside the car and he was INSIDE with his sister. She offered while I finished shopping for Easter stuff they can’t see. My daughter was beside me but her feet under the car and she started to drive away and ALMOST ran over her feet until she heard me screaming at the top of my lungs. She was dropping us off downtown because I needed to go out she offered to drive me one way. She “thought” she was on the other side of the stroller….WHY wouldn’t she look? I didn’t think she was leaving just yet because she fired up a cigarette and didn’t have the car started and it happened really fast! THEN the coffee thing today. I was called from my prenatal pre-admit clinic at the hospital TO emergency to find my daughter stripped to her underwear with cream all over her chest, face and arms and my Mother saying it wasn’t her fault it was only a second she went upstairs. She later admitted to the doctor she was playing an internet game and smoking. My Mother has watched my kids for an hour to a couple of hours before at a time and has never had a problem. All of a sudden this stuff starts happening! I live WITH my Mother because my husband is away in basic training in the military until the beginning of June, about 2 – 3 weeks after the baby is due to be born. My Mother offers occasionally to watch my kids and I’m afraid to let her, especially now! I am going to be taking my kids with me everywhere and doing everything including bathing with them. I don’t think she’s doing it on purpose, but I have no idea what else to think. She’s on no new medication (does take anxiety medication and medication to prevent depression) and it’s never been a problem before. All of a sudden she’s gone loopy or something. I didn’t tell my husband about the Advil or the car thing because I didn’t want to worry him and thought maybe they were just close calls, but the coffee thing ….I have to tell him about that. I have no other family to help me out and I am having a home birth (have to pre-admit at the hospital just in case I go in). My Grandmother and my sister will be here to watch the kids and my Mom will be with me when I have the baby. I’m afraid. I don’t know what’s going on, but what do I say when she wants to watch them or take them somewhere? It’s REALLY freaking me out! Moving out isn’t an option we have 7 weeks until we move where he’s posted and we can’t afford it nor will anyone rent to me for 7 weeks.

I’ve always had migraines but since becoming pregnant i get it more often. My OBGYN prescribed me some medications. ON Sunday morning I went to fill my prescription along with my prenatal medication, and the pharmacist was very hesitant about given me the medication. He told me this medication is part of the FDA pregnancy risk Category C. There’s been reports of babies being born with physical abnormalities. Women who’ve taking this medication during their 3rd trimester have had infants who had seizures due to the withdrawal and they get ventilatory depression. He really didnt want me to take the medicine. I didn’t take it. I called my doctor today and he said it was fine. I don’t even know what to do. The medicine contains acetaminophen, butalbital and caffeine.

There are times I find myself having a very prolonged sex without ejaculation and sometimes, errection decreases in mid sex.
What borders me most is that during ejaculation when it does happens, I will feel a sluggish sperm discharge, not as it use to forcefully squart severa years ago.

I like to know if this is a medical condition? I do take blood pressure medication (NORVAC)

Advise please because I hate to see the sadness on my wife’s face during every menstrual cycle arrival.

Also, I like to point out that I had three Kids of my own whom 20 years is the oldest.

My brain is now spinning in circles with lots of questions. I have not fallen into any type of destructive behavior; however, I am slowly falling into a depressive one.
I am fine most of the time, but whenever I see something that reminds me of the baby and being pregnant, I start getting extremely sad and want to cry…I do not want to use medication for this because anti-depressants do not sit well with me – I become a roller coaster.
I stopped talking about the baby with everyone, including my boyfriend, because I feel like I am annoying them. So, I just hold all my feelings inside and pretend everything is OK. At work, there is another girl who is pregnant and I was only a couple of months behind her…Now I cannot even look at her. I get really sad thinking about what could have been.
Is this normal? If so, what can I do to make it better without taking medication? How long is this going to last?

AMAZING!!! my hubbie and i both said worth every penny! I did have an advantage b/c i got an ultrasound yesterday (to my surprise it was abdominal) so I knew exactly where the baby was. It is really good. After 2 m/c’s, I know this will help ease my anxiety between appointments! Feel free to share your experiences! I was able to easily get it again this morning…and yes…i will stop checking every 12 hours! :)

Had sex every night from June 12th-18th. Was due for my next period on July 6th, and usually always on time with a heavy flow on first day. Night of July 4th I had some really light, bright red bleeding, but none since then. For about a week and a half I’ve had light cramping and sharp breast pains, but no actual soreness. My acne has gotten really bad, I have no appetite, and when I do eat I usually soon have to use the restroom (usually dark green diarrhea, sorry if TMI). All symptoms are still currently in place. All HPT’s are negative, and a few days ago I had a pelvic exam and everything was fine (as in no infections and such), and he said it could possibly be pregnancy but I should wait awhile. So does this sound like I can look forward to being pregnant (I’d definitely love that), or does it sound more like stress? Because I have been stressed out for about a month. I’m really confused. Any help would be appreciated.
8th was the first day. Always a pretty regular 28 days.

But recently I started what I believe to be my period, so unfortunately, my hopes of pregnancy are gone. Still increasingly sore breasts, weird flutterings in uterus area, extreme headaches, and what has now turned into constipation. But I believe its just and just a crazy hormonal imbalance.

At about 28 weeks, anxiety kicked in with a few panic attacks and loss of sleep. I am on Ambien now (which is completely safe for baby) and it gets me through the nights. However, I am feeling anxious all day still. I feel like I need to constantly be busy because I get so anxious just sitting/lying down. I can’t just relax my mind. I have trouble napping or just enjoying peace and quiet. MY QUESTION IS: Will this pregnancy induced anxiety go away after the birth of the baby? I have heard that hormones can cause this, so will I go back to normal later, assuming I won’t be post-partum? Experience? Thoughts?
I am not necessarily anxious about the baby as much as anxious about anxiety and feeling wierd. I hate it. Hope that makes sense.

At about 20 weeks or so, the anxiety and depression I’ve fought off and on for 10 years started coming back strong and I got treatment. Now that I’m 26 weeks and am on Zoloft and seeking psychiatric counseling, I feel a *million* times better and more like myself again.

Last week, my fiance and I took in an orphaned kitten, which I know is a TERRIBLE idea when you’re pregnant because they need a lot of attention, but she gets it and he took such a shine to her since she left her mom and siblings to choose us. Most of my me time is taken up by making sure she has attention and is fed (first with an eyedropper, but now bowls of kitten formula) and warm. I’m even waking up at all hours of the night to check on her and give her some food if she’s awake and I’m exhausted– this is the time when I’m supposed to be resting up!

But I feel disgusted with myself because I’ve been less and less excited about being pregnant to the point where I honestly wonder if I just gave my daughter up for adoption, if I would even care. I feel actual aversion to looking at the baby clothes I’ve collected so far and have no emotion feeling when my baby kicks anymore, something that used to make me so happy I would nearly cry. My fiance has never shown as much interest as I did in the pregnancy, which is normal for men I’ve heard since they don’t really bond with the baby until they’re out. Now I feel like he probably does and that isn’t normal. I shouldn’t feel neutral about the baby inside me.

What should I do? I feel like a complete monster. Can anyone identify with this?

My first is 16 months old and I had no problems with that pregnancy other than the occasional emotional outburst. No depression afterward, but I did leave my husband 2 months later and we’re in the process of a semi-peaceful divorce. No custody battle, property problems or child support issues, but he’s not the father of this baby and he doesn’t want to pay for a paternity test to prove it, he wants me to do that. Not the issue at hand but I think it’s a factor in my emotional problems.

For the past month or so I’ve been feeling frantic but I can’t pinpoint a reason for it. I’m desperate to do something but I don’t know what it is, and I think my stress is ruining my relationship with my boyfriend. I’m also worried about money after the baby is born.

Since I’m not working it’s my responsibility to keep the house in order and I don’t have a problem with that, it’s fair and I try to do what I can. But lately I’ve been so tired (like I could happily fall into a coma at any given time) and I just sleep during the day. It’s all I want to do but I can’t seem to sleep at all at night. Now the housework is suffering. The dishes just sit there, it’s hard to get the laundry done – especially since I have no washer or dryer and have to go to my dad’s house to do it. It just seems so overwhelming now that it’s all gone to crap and I still have to do it by myself.

And now my b/f and I are arguing over this, how he works his butt off all day at work and is just as tired as I am when he gets home. He’s not a bad man and he’s stressed out too so I don’t blame him for not wanting to help out when I’m just sleeping all day. But the guilt over not working, not being able to do more that a couple things a day, worrying about how we’re going to pay our bills, and knowing that I’m not going to get any sleep for the next year is all taking it’s toll. It makes me want to crawl into a hole, bawl my eyes out and forget everything exists.

I know I should probably see a therapist or something but honestly, I have too much to do to make time, and even if I could I wouldn’t. How can I let everyone know that I’m miserable when they’ll just tell me it’s my hormones and laugh it off? And how do I now that these problems won’t get worse after the baby’s born?

(mentally)…I don’t really have that much trouble with depression, & here lately I’ve been doing pretty good with my anxiety/panic attacks, but I fear ANY type of problem during my pregnancy may trigger it, or make my depression worse…..Any good advice?.

My husband is not supportive and I just had a miscarriage? http://www.pregnancydepression.org/how-do-i-pull-myself-out-of-this-depression-my-husband-is-not-supportive-and-i-just-had-a-miscarriage.html http://www.pregnancydepression.org/how-do-i-pull-myself-out-of-this-depression-my-husband-is-not-supportive-and-i-just-had-a-miscarriage.html#comments Mon, 19 Jul 2010 14:17:14 +0000 admin http://www.pregnancydepression.org/how-do-i-pull-myself-out-of-this-depression-my-husband-is-not-supportive-and-i-just-had-a-miscarriage.html He’s absolutely unreliable and I will think about and possibly take the next step after I get better. I suffered a miscarriage while he left me in pain so that he can go out with his buddies..he says he’s embarrassed of me. I feel really crappy right now and I’m seeing a counseler who is helping me and my doc gave me anti-depressants that don’t work..I don’t want to get up i n the morning. I don’t even wear makeup anymore. I just feel so ugly and unwanted..i guess i’m also heartbroken.
I feel really traumatized that My whole life was turned upside down while his didn’t change at all.

I really don’t want to put any “drugs” in my system. If there’s a natural way, I’d rather do that. She also suggested that I start taking PreNatal vitamins? I have to go get blood drawn next week to see if I have this…even though I don’t know much about it?
I do have symptoms she said like fatigue, depression (occasionally), weight gain (only a few pounds though), I’m always cold, etc. and I think my grandmother has it too??
Any ideas? Thanks.

I love her with all my heart, i have never felt a love like this before, but I feel like I need a break already. I was diagnosed with prenatal depression when i was 35 weeks pregnant and the zoloft has been working, i just feel like they may have to up my dosage. This has been the happiest time of my life, but it has also been the scariest. Anyone else feel like this?
