New here. Wanted to see if there was support for my loss and anxiety. Lost foer in the last year and a half last one in dec at nearly 20 weeks. My Last live birth was very prem. spent so much time in hospital. Since Chris due date I have been suffering so bad from anxiety and depression. Struggling with the upkeep of the house and 3 children and the pain of losing 6 pregnancies. I feel I am loosing my mind

im so sorry for the losses you have had ive had a few miscarriages many years ago and all three of my babies were preemie, i cant imagine what u have been through to carry a baby 20 weeks then lose that baby. i pray god gives you the strength to get through this. there is alot of wonderful people on this board that can give you alot of info on how to deal with anxiety. im still fighting it myself i actually posted a bit ago as im at the end of my rope with it. is there any support groups in your area that you could join to help you with the loss of your pregnancies? or maybe a therapist to help you cope? ill be praying for you to find peace and strength.

Thank you Anglfrmhn69. I am sorry about your losses and I really don't know how you got through more than one preemie birth. My little girl was born at 26 weeks 3 years ago. I am a wreck from it all. I had a fear of hospitals as it is so to spent so many months there then 2 years of constant coming and going was hell. Thank you for the prayers as well they mean a lot to me. I started therapy at the end of may which I think is helping. At least I dont need to nap 3 times a day now. Its very slow going as there is so much to sort through. From being abandoned as a baby, to caring for a sometimes violent suicidal step son (he is doing great now so proud ) Then very bad pregnancies and frightening births (my youngnst boy was born c-section drugs didn't work and I felt everything) some days I feel I am at square 1 others I can see that its slow but I am making progress

I'm so sorry for your losses, I have suffered multiple miscarriages just recently but all mine have been much earlier so I can't begin to imagine what you've been through. I too am struggling with anxiety and depression and much of it stems from these losses, I've seen my gp and been referred to a counsellor.. Is this something you've tried, and do you have a good support network in place? Know that there's always support for you right here :)
