panic and pregnancy


20 years ago 0 6 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I have to say that I have the same worries about pregnancy and panic. I was pregnant and did not have the baby due to poor doctor advice and extreme panic. Now wanting to start a family I am scared to death. My therapist assures me many women with panic have successful pregnancys but I am not ready just yet. My fear is I will be halfway through my pregnancy and decide I can't take it anymore and with nothing I could do about it loose my mind or go crazy! Only you know when your ready! I am starting to think that a baby would be the best thing for me because it would take the focus off of me, I would have something else to worry about.

Hi Dea, I haven't been through a prenancy but I do have PD and I think if you have been doing REALLY good so far you will be able to continue that way. Sometimes pregnancy can do funky things to your hormones and brain chemistry. I am not sure how far you are along but I am sure that this baby cannot wait to enter this world and the loving family that is waiting for it. As the pregnancy goes on I think that you will just be so excited at the fact that the baby is coming soon that you won't have time to be worried if panic will strike. Maybe try to focus your energy on things that are more positive like you say you are excited to start a family maybe plan the new babies room and decorate work on a pregnancy diary or some other things like that. Hope I was some help congratulations on the pregnancy and I'm sure the only anxiousness youll be feeling is the anticipation of seeing the beautiful new baby's face! Tara

I was wondering if anyone has been through a pregnancy with pd. I have been doing REALLY good for a while now and am looking forward to starting a family. But the debate remains in my head about carrying a child. If anyone has gone through it, I would appreciate the insight.
