Therapy for Pregnancy
When you imagined being pregnant, this isn't what you expected. You may be feeling:
When you first saw that positive pregnancy test, you may have imagined "the pregnancy glow," dotingly dressing your bump in cute maternity clothes, and feelings of pure joy about your baby's arrival. But if you're being honest, pregnancy has been ROUGH.
»Surprised by how hard this is.
Sure, you can grow a tiny human while you're cuddled up on the couch with your favorite TV show (how cool is that?!), but sometimes it feels like that's all you can bring yourself to do. You're exhausted, but too stressed out to get truly restful sleep. You're hungry, but you're nauseous and grossed out by your usual go-to foods. You're wanting to relax, but are just generally (and constantly) uncomfortable with assorted aches and pains.
»At odds with your body.
You're starting to feel overwhelmed by the thought that everything is about to change. You're terrified of childbirth and having racing thoughts about all that could possibly go wrong. You worry about what this new baby will mean for your relationships, your career, and your sense of self. You're grieving the anticipated loss of life as you know it, making it hard to enjoy this unique season. You feel stuck in big feelings and don't know how to find your way out.
»Scared about what comes next.
You deserve support.
+ Clarify and move towards WHAT MATTERS MOST TO YOU.
+ Anticipate and effectively prepare for your needs during birth and postpartum.
+ Process your emotions about becoming a parent and all of the changes it brings.
+ Work with big feelings (physical and emotional) instead of against them.
+ Create a self-care plan to support your mental health during pregnancy.
