Help waters have broke so anxious

[fisher]

oh i have posted before about having anxiety especially about my heart going fast and i was booked in on 17 th july for c section but my waters broke 5.30 today so in hospital,cant believe i am scared of taking stuff and i have had to have steriod injection and put on antibiotics and have to stay in,my heart is goin fast because i am anxious,just cant calm down.

have you told the doctor's you are really anxious and can't calm down? Also remember that anyone in your situation would be anxious so this is not abnormal anxiety happening at a time it shouldn't. It's natural you are anxious but I think the problem is you are like me and scared of being anxious as it brings on horrible symptoms and feelings.
So what happens now? Are they going to c-section you soon or wait and see?
whetever happens though you will get through this- it will be stressful and you will be freaked out but you are being looked after by docs and nurses and they will do the best for you.
Good luck xxx

Totally understandable to be anxious in that situation. It may sound silly but when i was in hospital waiting to be induced i played games on my mobile and did crosswords to keep my mind off it. Take care.

First of I hope everything is over for you now and all is good. I was in the Same position years ago and it was the first time I had ever had a panic attack what helped me through was my aunt telling me that my baby could feel my stress and panic and I only wanted him to feel my love and happy anticipation of his arrival. If you keep those thoughts an trust that everything will be ok it will. Think positive

Oh i wish it was all over with my babys heart rate dropped last night rushed me to delivery suite but ended up being fine,coming back to ward,i panicked that much my legs were shaking with anxiety,today my arms have gone hot so i keep wreching aswell,my heart is going fast because i am so anxious just cant calm down.

I know it's hard I know trust me but keep thinking positive and remember the end result is a happy healthy baby. You can do this you just need to relax know you are strong.
