Hey everyone. Well I havn't been on in a while as I ended up in hospital with high BP at just over 37 weeks. I can tell you that my anxiety was thru the roof at this stage. They put me on a beta blocker and it didnt really settle so was induced at 38 and a half weeks so two weeks ago I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby boy (despite all my anxiety). He is just so perfect I can't believe I did it.
Now since then has been a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. My BP stayed high following birth so I wasnt feeling great. It has since gone too low and am now off the tabs but still worried that something could be wrong or could happen and I wont be able to look after him. I've been feeling light headed, nauseus and racing heart. I just hope these feelings will pass. My doctor has tried to reassure me that this is all normal as hormones adjust after pregnancy. I hope I can try relax as I feel like I'm going around in daze and just want to do right by my little boy. I feel like I'm letting him down and not being a good mother. Has anyone else experienced this?
Hope everyone else is doing well xx
