Pregnant and scared... How to cope?
Hello. I'm 23 weeks pregnant and I found out I have this virus. I have been so depressed since last week and I can hardly eat and sleep. I don't know how to tell me family. I don't know how to face it. I'm afraid... How do you all cope? I knew of my condition a few years back. My doc told me that I have dormant state. Now having to face it really scares me.
i havent been pregnant and im scared to go through it since i found out that i am hbv carrier. but i believe you can do it with the help of ur family and doctors. i guess being pregnant makes one emotional than the ordinary so you need the support of your loved ones. enjoy ur pregnancy
Thank you for your response. I really been feeling all alone in my situation right now. The good thing is they checked my CBC and my platelet is normal in the 300s... Which I read somewhere that it's a good indication I don't have scarring in the liver. Augghhhz... I hope you all continue to support me on here. I'm thankful to have found people to talk to about my situation.
Thank you for your insight. I'm extra scared because when I was diagnosed, my doc didn't tell me to follow up. Six years ago when my daughter was born, my alt and ast was normal at 24. I don't know now. I'm really scared. I guess I need few more blood work to make sure everything is in place. God help me. I'm not taking this very well. I feel fine. No symptoms or anything. But I'm afraid what to xpect. Since I haven't had follow up.
dont be scare my friend. In a few years back i didnot know i have HBV, I passed it to my girlfriend. ( sorry ). And I have 2 little babies now. just tell ur doctor u are a HBV carrier , they will take care of u.
Hi
Me too passed through.I discover this during my pregnancy and I was so depressed from the virus plus the changment in hormones.but with help of husband mum and sister I took my forces and focus on my pregnancy and the coming of baby wich was my great happiness.you are not obliged now to tell any one if you want to hard tho to your self do it.but really the family help in such cases especially the very close ones.try to enjoy your pregnancy and hbv now is controlled and if you feel sad or not well try to see a psychologist it helps because also changnent in our body (hormones)makes us very sensitive towards such subject.good pregnancy
