Pregnant and anxious: From your question it sounds like you may have suffered from anxiety b4. Mood and anxiety sxs can get better or worse during and after a pregnancy. The strain of severe anxiety is probably not healthy for you or your baby. Set up an appt with a psych MD, and discuss treatments available, which may begin with talk therapy alone :) make sure you continue to care for yourself as your baby needs you!
