Hi,
congrats , you are pregnant.

Dont worry and tense for any reason, you are in a process to become mother, you are lucky.

try to be relax and pass your normal routine life.

Actually during pregnancy depression, anxiety , panic attack can happen.

If you are not suffering from before , give yourself some time to relax.
During pregnacy its better take less medication as possible.

You can consult with an psychiatrist for your better management.
