During pregnancy, a woman finds herself in an atypical situation for her, often finding herself alone with her experiences.
All our fears are generated by thoughts. For example, thoughts that a child will be born underdeveloped, with deviations, childbirth will be unsuccessful, after the birth of the child, career and personal freedom will end, and the material load will be unbearable.
First, you need to gather strength and face your fears. Remember, nothing will happen if you yourself are not nervous, worried and sad, thereby causing moral and physical harm to your baby. Serious abnormalities are extremely rare, and even if this happens, then many amenable to drug treatment. In the modern world, a pregnant woman undergoes many examinations and tests, thereby minimizing the risk of developing serious diseases.
The first pregnancy is almost always clouded by fears and worries about childbirth. Timely preparation and a positive attitude will help you overcome negative thoughts. Study the stages of childbirth, methods of natural pain relief, decide whether someone close will be present at the birth, read comments about maternity hospitals.
One of the main steps in overcoming fears is the realization that a new family member will appear in your life, without which you will not imagine your life. Chat with him, read fairy tales, listen to your favorite music. Rest as much as possible, ask for help in household chores of loved ones. Take pleasure in choosing baby items and furnishing a room for your baby.
Reset your negative emotions with the help of art therapies: drawing, modeling, creativity. Discuss your fears with loved ones, and if this does not help, contact a perinatal psychologist.
During the first pregnancy, the question of attractiveness for a beloved man is especially important. Increasing abdomen and hips, stretch marks, puffiness further add self-doubt. But all this is an exaggeration, your husband understands that this is a temporary phenomenon. After giving birth, with proper attention, you will quickly get in shape.
The more positive and joyful moments in the future mother's life, the less fears her mind fills. Enjoy every moment of your new state, because nothing brings more positive emotions than the emergence of a new life.
