[quote=Anonymous]Yep. I dealt with infertility and, especially with my first pregnancy, I was absolutely convinced that something was going to go wrong and I would lose the baby. Completely normal, healthy, uneventful pregnancy, but the anxiety drove me bonkers. As crazy as it seems, the only thing that got me through it when my anxiety got bad was the knowledge that there was absolutely nothing I could do (beyond the usual eating right, not drinking, getting great prenatal care, etc) to affect the outcome. Understanding that, in the end, it was out of my hands. Also: distractions. So many distractions. Books, mindless tv, crossword puzzles, conversations with friends. I think my anxiety was less with my second pregnancy because I was so distracted with caring for older DD and juggling early pandemic issues.[/quote]
