Covid anxiety during pregnancy

Welcome to 2022, the meme's are circulating, and you would not be alone if you were thinking, "here we go again".

Fear is once again in the air.

Expectant mothers around the globe are facing unprecedented pressure in a climate that offers little control over an invisible tormentor, Covid.

Perhaps birthing alone with your midwife or doula is your dream birth, or you envision being surrounded by hospital staff on the ready for any situation that could arise. The truth is, birthing plans are becoming more difficult than ever to formulate when met with hospital and government mandates for safe practice.

Women are frightened, caregivers are concerned, and partners cannot at times support physically.

Understandably, people are struggling mentally and emotionally.

Remaining in flow with our mental health guidelines, Boss Mind Therapy advocates all expectant mothers and new mums now more than ever practice autonomy. Limiting exposure to media and reconnecting with your reality is at the forefront in covid conscious times.

And whilst we offer many coping strategies, none are more effective in easing anxiety than reaching out and speaking with a supportive therapist. Counselling for pregnancy is essential and, in these unprecedented times, will help with anxiety and stress.

Communication and support are the two most effective tools to navigate any roadblocks. By communicating with a professional therapist, you will receive the support you require to balance yourself, move forward with your parenting, baby growing or birthing, with clarity and empowerment.

Covid is inevitable. Fear is not.
