How can I recognize and manage symptoms of anxiety during pregnancy?

Recognizing and managing anxiety during pregnancy is important for both maternal and fetal health. Symptoms may include excessive worrying, difficulty sleeping, and physical symptoms like a racing heart. It's essential to talk about these feelings with your midwife or GP, as they can provide support and resources. Techniques such as mindfulness, gentle exercise, and relaxation exercises can help manage anxiety. The NHS offers mental health support for expectant mothers, including counseling services. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength, and you are not alone in experiencing these feelings.
