I really don't want to have to take my anti anxiety meds but I may have to just to help.
Jess keep cool .... This is the time u need to keep calm n meditate... Things will be alright... God bless....
But honestly the whole not being able to nest isn't what's causing my anxiety to go up. It's the idea of giving birth.
Preparing for his arrival has been hard for me. My romance and I are still trying to get into an apartment but don't qualify for housing assistance. I know the negativity from his family has made it worse. I honestly have had little to help getting what I need. I only have clothes, a small amount of diapers and one pack of wipes and a play pen. My baby shower isn't for another 2 weeks and can't get into an apartment for another month.
Do you have everything prepared for his arrival? I'm 30wks and have anixety and ocd issues. I have found that I can reduce my anxiety by getting myself prepared ahead of time. Doing things like having the nursery put together and completely stocked, buying the first year of diapers ahead of time, making arrangements for his care and mine after birth, making lists of all the things I've been concerned about and researching them so I have a better understanding. All of these things have helped me. What have you tried?
