hormones and anxiety/worrying « Back to Group Discussions

Just wondering if anybody else gets abnormal anxiety when they are pregnant?  I seem to be worrying about EVERYTHING lately.  And I know this happened when I was pregnant before with DD.  I mean little things that I would normally never even think about are starting to keep me up at night. Fretting, and pondering...it's driving me crazy!  It must be the hormones...but don't we have enough to worry about??? Why do hormones have to make you worry so much more??

Yes.  The worrying has been terrible for me each time- about the pregnancy itself, lots, but also other random absurdities.  My friend calls it prenatal paranoia.  :)
