I have GAD and panic attacks. Its become increasingly worse with this pregnancy. I can feel my stomach tighten and the heart flutters every time its triggered. To cope I usually read a couple of my favorite bible verses and breathe but I'm getting concerned it might be bad for the pregnancy so I'm thinking of talking to my OB about anxiety meds.

Wow you sound like me. I get the dame way. I just tell myself it's ok, and I will feel better once I have my body back to myself. Sometimes it helps. A bath is relaxing, with low lighting, or no light at all. My anxiety is worse during pregnancy.  Be careful not to push your boyfriend away. After a panic attack remind him you love him and how your anxiety makes you feel and that it's tough to control right now.

We all have some type of stressing going on with us. The first thing i would tell you too do is see if your OB approve you taking anxiety meds cause im pretty sure its something that u would be able to take to cop with it. What I usually do is try to keep my mind off the worries but in the mean time try to find a way to fix them as well. If your boyfriend doesn't understand you can always come on here and chat with me,  ill be your listening ear. I know hormones play a big part in my moods and i just go someone to be alone and play soothing music like jazz to keep me calm down.  Try that

I am 25 weeks and 3 days. I've Benn stressing about money issues, and my current living situation. I have always had anxiety but this is the worse it's ever been. I don't feel comfortable taking any sort of medicine to help with anxiety while pregnant. I don't have friends to talk to. I have an amazing boyfriend who does so much for me but he doesn't understand anxiety or how it feels. He's never had a panic attack and doesn't stress the way I do. I know my hormones make it worse but I don't know how to cope with this stress. I feel calmer now but when I posted this I was mid panic attack. It scares me because my son feels my emotions and I know how badly it hurts me, and I feel even worse knowing it's hurting him too...

Dont make ur self stressed. It's bad for the baby. Instead, think about happy things in life. Inhale in and out the deepest one you can try. I came onto that point too. Made me panic when i told to my parents i'm pregnant but they still accept me. Just remember they love you still
