Im 15 weeks pregnant and lately I've been experiencing extreme anxiety over the well-being of my unborn child. I've had some very bad feelings and worries and I am wondering whether this is just me being a new mommy or if my level of anxiety is even normal. I feel like every symptom (or lack of) means there's something wrong with the baby. I have visions of going to the doctor and her telling me that the baby's dead inside me and I've even had some very horrific nightmares involving the baby that I will spare everyone the description of. i have these constant fears that something will go wrong and whatever it is will be my fault. I just wish at this point I could go on actually enjoying my pregnancy and feel the happiness that's supposed to come with having a little life inside me but all I feel right now is fear. I'm not normally like this. This feeling of anxiety and bad feelings is completely new to me and I'm really hoping that other mothers-to-be have felt the same level of fear. if not, what do i do? If this isn't normal, than what can i do to change it? I even fear that my anxiety will hurt the baby. Please help me.
