Not too sure about how to cope.

HI,I am not new to Ivillage,but I am new to this particular board.I was diagnosed with BP last spring,and shortly after I found out that I was pregnant with our 6th child. I am due next month and I am still having trouble being pregnant and trying to cope with all my triggers.As I know that they will be coming back to me when this baby is born,as alot of my triggers has to do with my in laws.DOes anyone have any suggestions?? It would be greatly appreciated,thank you.

Hi arwyn,
First, welcome to this board! I'm glad you found us. You'll really like the people here.
My only suggestion would be learn relaxation exercises or meditation. I had problems with my xh and learning these really helped when the triggers came. I actually learn how to slow down my mind when it gets really bad. I learned how to do this in the hospitol but, I'm sure any good tdoc would be able to show you how to do this or recommend some tapes.
The second suggestion I have is to keep posting we're here for you. Other than that I have nothing. I have no in-laws now and when they were alive my dh acted as a buffer between us.
I'm sorry if this wasn't much help. I'm sure someone wiser than me will be along to give you more ideas. Again Welcome!
Love,
Jamie
