(Im 24 weeks pregnant and im afraid my baby wont be normal. I worry day and night sometime i cant sleep or eat. I work with disable kids and i fear my baby is going to be disable. I cry all the time because i feel so guilty for thinking so badly. I pray to god to bless me with a health baby. Can someone please help me? P.S Is this normal)
Answer:
It’s normal to have those thoughts, but if you’re obsessing over them and can’t eat or sleep, you need to talk to your doctor. Hopefully they will be able to reassure you based upon all your diagnostic appointments, etc. You’re suffering from anxiety, and the stress you are putting yourself through isn’t good for your baby. Use the power of positive thinking! Picture your baby as perfect and beautiful. When you start thinking negatively, you need to consciously make the decision to push those thoughts out of your mind.
Odds are in your favor that your baby will be just fine. Good luck to you!
