[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dealt with a LOT of anxiety during my first pregnancy.   I got pregnant via IVF, after several years of infertility treatments, and I was convinced something would go wrong, even though both the baby and I were perfectly healthy.  I wish I had talked to someone about it.  I feel that anxiety eventually led to a diagnosis of PPD/PPA after she was born.[/quote]

Good to hear all is seemingly ok with your baby though? Im just worried if I have caused an irreversible damage during development of brain with all my heighted anxiety during first and well into second tri. Feeling much better this week with the help of a therapist and all the support I have been getting on here, plus a solid Dr app. Going to continue therapy.[/quote]

Yes!  She is nearly 5yo now, and she's perfectly healthy!  She's very extroverted and outgoing...far more so than I am, acruslly!
Please do speak with your provider about your fears, though, and make sure that both you and your partner are well aware of the warning signs of PPD and PPA.  Honestly, my anxiety only got worse after she was born.  I was just so convinced that something would happen to her when she was a baby, and lack of sleep during those early months just heavily exacerbated the problems.
Your baby will be just fine, OP.  Please make sure you take care of yourself, too.[/quote]
