I am almost at 6 weeks, anxiety and insomnia are the worst combination. I have wanted this pregnancy with all my heart and I just want everything to be okay. Whenever I start feeling really happy that Im pregnant I start to worry im getting ahead of myself! Thank you for this video ❤

You are a GODSEND. I have been searching EVERYWHERE for some tips/advice. I am almost 5 weeks pregnant and have really been struggling with how to handle the intense level of anxiety I have been feeling (I was not anticipating this with my first baby). I can't wait to watch more of your videos. Thank you so much 💖😭

Thank you 🙏🏼 I’m currently 7 weeks pregnant and experiencing anxiety 😥

I'm six weeks along and honestly my husband and I agreed that we'd tell people around 12 weeks but I'm starting to rethink that because the number one thing I feel would help me with anxiety is talking with my friends, especially those who are already mamas and may relate to my feelings.

Thanks so much for this video! I started watching your videos this May after my loss and now I in the very early stages of the next pregnancy! I did all your fertility videos while trying and now your anxiety videos are a great help. While I don't believe all the anxiety will go away, I feel much better this time around. Thank you so much for all your support, Bettina♥️

I’m almost at 5 weeks. Same point as when I started a chemical pregnancy in January. Today is hard…..that’s why I’m here. Thank you!! ❤️🙏🏽

Thank you. My yoga teacher directed me to this channel, and I am already grateful. I had a miscarriage almost 2 years ago, am currently almost to my 2nd trimester, am age 37, and so much anxiety! I need to find a replacement for Facebook doom scrolling (which aggravates the anxiety) and think I'll try reading. Thank you.

I really want to say thank you for your videos. I’m 5 weeks pregnant with my IVF rainbow baby after 5 losses and I’m so very worried but I’ve been doing SOMETHING from your channel every night and it really helps me so much

Betina!! I am so grateful to have found you!! You are incredibly wise. I really appreciate your tips! Thank you for this video!!

You’re amazing! Thank you so so much 💗💗 I’m 15 weeks pregnant and my anxiety is spiking massively. I’ve had 2 panic attacks in a week’s time and am thinking of starting antidepressants just to manage it. These tips are so so helpful, and your voice is so soothing. From a desperate mama, thank you so much 💗

I’m so glad I ran across your channel. The work that you do is appreciated. Thank you. ❤️

Another great video by Bettina for dealing with anxiety. I’m not pregnant currently but I benefitted from her other videos when I was pregnant and experiencing a lot of anxiety. Practicing yoga, such as her yoga routines for anxiety was also very helpful. When in the middle of the anxiety it’s also great to know there are others with similar experiences and that you’re not alone

Thank you so much, I just found out today and I have so many questions and concerns, mainly being petrified of childbirth and not survive. I watched this mid anxiety attack and the breathing helped so much 🖤 the internet is full of so many horror stories and not enough comfort for expecting moms.

Thank you Bettina- I’ve used your videos for several years now, two losses of my own three failed IVF (two with my eggs and one donor), I’m now pregnant with donor egg IVF 5 weeks! And yes all the support and help I can get to let the anxiety go is so helpful. Thank you for your work I love your channel

I’m legit sobbing watching this video. 4w6d today and all I can do is overthink and assume the worst. 😔 I can’t get an appointment until 10 weeks and I cannot stop panicking. Thx for the great video 💙💙💙

thank you so much- i had a miscarriage in July and just confirmed today that i am pregnant with doctor! very exciting. I am heeding your no coffee advice and its already calming me down- but i love these tips and am grateful I found you on here. I also love to read so that will be my new coffee!

I was an anxious person before I was pregnant. Then once I found out, I had to stop my medication. Was fine for a few days but then after have been a complete mess. I am terrified of miscarriage then become guilty because I can’t control my anxiety. It’s a vicious cycle. I am glad I have found this!!! I’m going to try it!

Thank you for this. I keep having that feeling of wanting to escape. I want to be happy about this pregnancy but I have had two miscarriages in the last year and a half and I’m pregnant again and I sincerely hope that doesn’t happen again but I don’t know what a successful pregnancy feels like and constantly find my self worrying if what I feel is normal or if i feel sick because of pregnancy or because of anxiety. The breathing technique is already beginning to help. Can’t thank you enough for being kind to post this.

Thank you sooo much! 🥰 That really will help me. I also draw and colour mandalas when I need to be back to here and now and help me to be patient and have faith... I share it hoping that can help or inspire any women☺️

I’m currently 5 weeks and the anxiety I am feeling is real… I’m constantly fearful with every ache or pain. I’ve never had a loss, but after 2 years of TTC I think this baby just means so much to me that the thought of something going wrong makes me feel sick.

These comments help me not feel alone ❤️ 5 weeks 2 days and every day is a struggle with anxiety right now. Sending everyone love❤

Really good techniques alot of people trying give things to do but these are great u need to take ur mind of what ur thinking bout in the first place these are great steps to check.

I’m happy that I’m not alone going thru this it gives me hope

Thank you so much for this video. I just found out I’m around 8 weeks pregnant and I have my first scan on Tuesday and my anxiety has been through the rough 😢. I just want my baby to have a heart beat and be ok

Thankyou so much these are the best tips ever , I actually forgot how much i love reading a good novel and its been ages! So I’m off to get one right now ☺️

I have severe anxiety on a day to day basis. I'm now pregnant after a 25 week loss, the hormones are absolutely insane. I'm trying everything to stop these panic attacks. Thanks for this!!

Prayers worship and pregnancy affirmation is really relieving my anxiety,fear and concerns you can try it too❤ first thing in the morning last thing at night

Thank you so much for your tips ❤️ I’m 4 weeks pregnant with our second baby and struggling with anxiety again because my pregnancy symptoms are so different to our previous pregnancy. Will try and have some tech free time and not Google!

I am on my 3rd at the age 41 n being 3 yrs ago had a miscarriage I feel like I have PTSD from it n didn't really know how bad until now so as soon as I see any type of spotting or anything like that my anxiety goes thru the roof. Thank u so much for posting this n I feel like God led me to ur channel so I subbed n will continue to try the yoga. Tmrw I have my 1st appt n I'm excited n can't wait to feel even better once they do the ultrasound

I just found out I’m pregnant at 3 weeks with my first pregnancy, and I’ve started to get anxiety about making it through the first trimester. Thank you for the tips in going to try them and hope they work

This is great thanks so much

I love this thank you first ultrasound scan today ❤

This video is wonderful. Thank you.

Thank you! Getting into novels in a great idea and something I knowingly avoid - I always favour videos or games over books despite how much I love reading. I just found out that I’m pregnant and I lost my last pregnancy at 12 weeks a few months ago. Even in these very very early stages things seem different so I’m remaining hopeful. But ever since the loss I find it so hard to be patient. Time has stood still and now I’m impatient to get my bloods done, have my first scan etc. I’m impatient to know if everything is okay. It’s so tough

so helpful! Thanks!

Thank you! I’m 5 weeks and one moment I’m ecstatic and the next I am very fearful something will go wrong! I have to wait 3 weeks for my first ultrasound which sucks.

Thanks I'm Def finding out stressful because my husband isn't allowed in for and hospital apt because of covid so I've no support during them even though he's only outside the hospital, I still feel alone. Will give these a try

After trying to conceive for 3 years, suffering one miscarriage a year ago, I'm pregnant again and terrified. We found out 3 days ago; I'm halfway week 4 now. Still temping and taking pregnancy tests to check in on my status, so I NEED these tips from you! Thanks so much!

5 weeks today and my anxiety is through the roof. Im scared of whatever could happen to my baby

You are very wise

Oh gosh, thank you so much. Im almost 9 weeks. I saw a heart beat and she said everything is ok, but i have low symptoms so i keep worrying about it. I only get sick once or twice a week and have sore breasts. Sometimes they arent even sore so i freak out a bit. Everyone says to just calm down... but they just dont know how it feels 🥺 Your video is the first that helpped out a lot. I think my pregnancy doest feel real just yet for me cuz im not so sick. Again thank you for the video it was great ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m happy that I found it this channel. Sorry for your two losses before. Question? Did you have any bleeding with those two losses?

Finally something that actually helps❤️

I am 5 weeks 3 days, I never had a loss and this is my first at 24 years old, it just feels like something will be taken away. I appreciate your video so much because I keep crying and have so much anxiety for my little one.

I started doing jigsaw puzzles. A friend of mine recommended it 💪

Thank you for your advice I’m almost 7 weeks and I literally had to delete TikTok because people were putting their experiences and fears of pregnancy and about their pregnancy on others . I would look up how my baby looks now in the few weeks and go in the comments and it would be other women saying “I lost mine at __ weeks” or anything in that nature and it scared me shitless . Like can you not do that especially under post like that. I’m already anxious because I haven’t seen my baby yet and probably won’t be able to till about 10 weeks and I’m trying to keep it calm . I pray over my baby everyday and give affirmations to myself to stay calm

i will try to read a book to see how it goes. My anxiety is off the top. Especially the appointments. It makes me anxious.

Thank you 😊 I feel anxious at 18 weeks and gender sonogram tomorrow and a mom to a ten year old. Feeling like I’m not a good mom. Lazy and financially stressed Not knowing what my future holds

I am 11 weeks pregnant, and always feeling anxiety about the baby. I believe every mom wants their child to be perfect, and always do their best to keep their child in the womb grows perfectly. But i really stressed out when there're too many information from close friends or even family about do and don'ts and all the overwhelming pregnancy rules. And sometimes they even told me about the effect for the baby when i break the rules. Every mom has different experience during pregnancy and it can't be generalized. But i hate when they trying to make me believe on them. I try my best to keep my baby safe but again, there're always be someone comments me negatively if i did what they think is wrong. I always talk to my obgyn about every activity i want to do during the pregnancy. My obgyn said that i am strong enough to do whatever activity i want as long as i become happier and just be careful in doing that. But my friend didn't believe about what my obgyn said. She keeps telling me that i shouldn't do that because based on her experience it's not good for the baby. 😢 i hope you understand what i'm going through.

Well, I made it to 13 weeks with twins but at the end piece can they found a lot of fluid in one of the babies next. They recommended doing an amniocentesis but I opted for the nipt blood test first. That will show whether I'm at low risk or high risk for one of the or both of the babies having chromosomal abnormalities or birth defects😢 one or both could also have a higher risk with prenatal loss. So while I was happy I was out of the first trimester I was bombarded with all of this potentially bad news. This video helped me though and I realized I have to have Hope and Faith and try to stay calm. Good luck to all you ladies out there

I'm blessed I haven't suffered a pregnancy loss, but am currently 8 weeks and have been suffering horrible anxiety especially in the mornings. I don't know why and my anxiety doesn't tend to have a cause. I have a history of anxiety and depression prior to being pregnant and I know its common to then have anxiety when pregnant, but I want to know why I feel like this. Is it the changes in hormones or the constant nausea triggering my anxiety, I just want to feel normal again 😭

After 6 miscarriages and the last one being an ectopic pregnancy, I had 9 years of pause without trying. Now, 1 years after trying again I am pregnant and the anxiety is killing me 😢 I hope everything goes well this time around!

I was looking for a video to give a friend for her first pregnancy struggling with Anxiety. And this is just feedback, but I don't feel like I can send her this video because of the mention of all the miscarrages. If you just started with the tips rather than mentioning that, I would have shared it. I realize those unfortunate things do happen. But that's what she's so worried about and I just want to give her something that focuses on controlling anxiety and not dwelling on negative possibilites that are beyond her control.

Thank you🤍

I am 7 weeks and 5 days pregnant. This was completely unexpected! It i was to put it as simply as i possibly can... It makes me sad to know im letting them go and happy to know im keeping them ❤ My mom didnt have me until she was 34 and i know she'll have alot to say. Idk why im so worried what my mum will think 😂

This one is my 3rd and I'm so scared and have a lot of anxiety. I'm excited but at the same time this little one is an oops and my house really isn't ready for another baby.. I live in a 3 bedroom house and my daughters room isn't done yet..couldnt afford a really nice house so I have a fixer upper that I'm having trouble fixing.. Both my first two babies were difficult pregnancys. My son is 9 and my daughter will be 3. I also have some health problems I found out with a ct scan recently.. I don't know I'm just having a lot of problems and I'm scared. Please pray for me to get over this hump in the road I'm facing and a safe happy healthy baby.. To all the mamas out there struggling I'm praying for you..

Has anyone had severe anxiety in the beginning of their pregnancy and had to get on medication my anxiety is so bad I can’t sleep or eat. I’m currently five weeks pregnant. I want to know if this is just a pregnancy thing and it’ll go away when I give birth.? or is this just a first trimester thing?

Im currently 5+2 weeks pregnant im having really bad anxiety 😢 the thought of a miscarriage terrifies me 😢😢😢 though ive never had one and i had a healthy baby 8 years ago

I wonder if there any safe herbs to take. I used to take ashwaghanda before becoming pregnant now I don’t know if it’s safe or even to drink chamomile tea

I just found out today and having major anxiety

I was not as anxious, but because researching about the topic I end up in the dark side of KZfaq with lots of doctors talk about how everything can turn bad specially if you’re an specific age.

Im currently 5 weeks pregnant. I been scared that I might miscarry because my first born was born a premature baby & I have a cyst on my ovary . Just don’t want anything bad to happen with this baby .

I just found out that I am pregnant 2 days ago. I am a day late on my period so I took my test early. I took four to be exact all clear positives. I went to the doctors and they told me it was too early for them to tell. So there test was negative. So I have to wait a couple weeks. It’s making me so anxious 😥 I’ve never been pregnant. This would be my first baby. Any tips out there from any mothers?

Alhamdulillah ❤thankyou

I am in my 8th week and I started feeling anxiety because I was keeping track of my symptoms and I had and sometimes still have the feeling, that maybe something is wrong, God forbid. The doctors don't take me seriously and keep pushing off my first appointment😢 the anxiety is choking me really

Do you know what to do when your husband tells you to get a therapist, but you can't cause you can't get health insurance? And you also have anxiety and ocd, you're working, trying to get your license, study fpr school and college, work cause he can't, cause hes job to job, get a place for eachother, provide rides and money cause he doesnt have a car or money right now, hes living with his parents, he already has a kid with someone, and you're not allowed to see that kid cause the mom doesn't want anyone else to take care of that kid, even after you've shown that you care for the kid and that kid loves being arond you, and your husband himself is trying to allow you to be around his kid, but if you or him do one wrong thing his kids mom will try to take the kid away completely and get full custody and makes the kid hate you and his dad and brainwashes the kid? and lastly you always make sure everyone is happy, but barely yourself cause youre dealing with so much? Cause I'm also not allowed at my husband's parents house cause they don't allow people at their house and he can't even tell them I'm pregnant right now? I'm just extremely stressed, sick, depressed, emotional and feel so alone in all of this and wish I could tell him more about what it's like for me and what I'm dealing with but when I do he gets abusive towards me and thinks I'm overreacting and should just deal what I'm going through or abort the baby? I just wish I knew what to do and had someone to help and maybe be able to get a therapist, but I haven't been able to have that

Anxiety about birthing since women my colour don't get the attention we need.

My is crying

I am 5 weeks pregnant and only get anxious when I go to bed and cant sleep until 4. Is there anything I can take at night to help?

I just found out today I am pregnant and I’m so scared 🥹 I’m 31 but this was unexpected
