Anxious feeling that won't go away?

Hi Everyone...

Just wondering if anyone else had this....

I'm 31+3 weeks today and since yesterday afternoon I have been feeling anxious - I feel it in my chest, there is no pain, tightening or anything and bubs movements are still exactly the same... like a freight train :D

I had an OB appointment yesterday and she said my BP was a little higher than what it has been but still well within the normal range. I have never had any blood pressure problems before and in my first pregnancy I was fine all the way through.

I'm not sure if it might me indigestion :redface: that's kind of what it feels like but without the burning feeling? Or maybe because of the heat it's just getting a little harder to breathe now everything is getting squished???

I slept the night through and feel fine otherwise, not breathless or anything... I can't really say that I'm worried about anything nor can I pin point any particular reason why I would be feeling anxious?

Suggestions or thoughts anyone??

i'm not sure whether there's a particular reason but wanted to say that i've been feeling the same! it's only occasionally for me but i get a feeling that's almost like feeling homesick/anxious - i've been getting it for a few weeks. i have no idea what it is & i tend to ignore it & it seems to go away :lol: hopefully someone else can shed some light on it for you!

around this mark, bub can start pressing more against your diaphragm which can make breathing a bit harder - which in turn could be making you feel anxious... or make you *feel* like you're feeling anxious, if that makes sense.

or frankly, having another baby could be making you feel anxious ;)

is there someone you can talk to, or who can mind Zane for long enough for you to have a nice relaxing bath/foot massage/nap/etc?

Just had a shower and did some pottering round the house and it has almost gone...Mmmm weird?

It kind of does feel like nervousness/homesick Sloan (sorry your feeling like this too but glad I'm not the only one IYKWIM)

you might just be right? this bub will be a VBAC attempt for me so maybe it is making me feel more anxious than I thought?

Zane is in Kindy tomorrow so I'll plan to do nothing :clap: and see if that makes a difference?

Thanks Girls...

Glad that feeling is almost gone! Anxiety is horrid!

Hope the day of relaxing tomorrow helps even more :hug:
