Ireland Baldwin Reflected on Struggle With Anxiety During Pregnancy
of baby Holland in bed followed by a series of slides in which Ireland opened up about the anxiety she experienced during her pregnancy.
"I really struggled in my pregnancy as many of us do. Not just by puking everywhere," she wrote. "As someone who suffers tremendously from health anxiety, pregnancy shifted everything into overdrive. Every thought in my head pertained to hurting the baby. Hurting myself." She went on to describe the many daily anxieties she fretted over, "Am I [having] too much caffeine? Did I bend over too hard? Was my shower too hot? Do my feet look swollen? Am I even going to make a good mother? I spent the last 9 months worrying about pulmonary embolisms, blood clots, pre eclampsia."
