Does anyone here have experience trying to conceive while also suffering with health anxiety? My husband and I have been trying to conceive for literally a month and I just don't know how I'm going to cope. I wasn't built for this kind of uncertainty, constant uncertainty all the time. It's like waiting for some blood test results or something, except every day of your life for as long as it takes to get pregnant. Fear every time I go to the toilet, in case my period's started, checking my nipples every half an hour to see if they're still sore...Does anyone have any tips for getting through this? If I'm this anxious in month 1, how much worrying energy will I have left in me if/when we're several months down the line??
I don't even wanna think about how anxious I'll be during pregnancy!
