Hi June 2016!
I know we are all getting ready to have our babies but hope it isn't too late for me to join.
I am due June 17 and have an August 2014 baby. I had extreme anxiety from the beginning of this pregnancy which made me delay my introduction and time eventually slipped by. My anxiety was so bad, we did not share with IRL friends and family until I was six months along. I did share a bit earlier on the A14 board, but have not posted there in a while due to a very active toddler.
Our A14 baby was conceived with assistance and we actually consulted with/began the process again five days before we got our BFP. I am AMA and our A14 was born with what we hope will turn out to be a minor deformity (only time will tell). I failed my 1 hour glucose test and had to have the three hour test which I eventually passed. This all led me to be constantly anxious. Anyway, I hope it's not too late to join the group and share experiences.
Hi and welcome to June! I'm sorry you've had such a rough time, but these ladies are pretty awesome and supportive so join right in! My son was born with a relatively minor birth defect (clubfoot) so I feel you on the anxiety and extra worry that can cause in subsequent pregnancies. I'm happy to chat if you ever need to unload on someone!
Welcome! I'm sorry that you are dealing with anxiety. I can commiserate. I was seeing a counsellor for social and generalized anxiety. I also participated in an anxiety group. Both benefited me and I constantly use the tools that I learned. DS1 has a pragmatic language disorder and it's a struggle everyday and causes me anxiety. If you ever want to talk, you can message me or just vent away to all of us. We are a very great group.
