[Solved] Wife's anxiousness during pregnancy

Can anyone out there help me? My wife has anxiety issues and these are now ten fold in her 6th month of pregnancy. She has made steps to deal with them but I am finding it very difficult do deal with and as a result our relationship is starting to strain again. We have been to relate once already for a few sessions and that was successful, but now it's heading that way again and once more I'm at a loss what to do and how to handle the situation.

Is it worth trying relate again - it may be that a couple of "top up" sessions may help.

I think it is beyond that. I think she need professional help. I'm under constant stress and pressure to help her with her extreme problems and I don't know how to do that and as a result I'm to blame for them. I want to leave her but we have an 8 year old girl and a baby due in March. I starting to crack up myself. Her need for complete control is tearing us apart.

Seriously, it may be worth you having a word with relate on your own - it may be that with some coping strategies, you may be able to deal with your own stress first, and that may mean that you can then cope better with your wife, if only for the next 3 months - her hormones will be running wild at the moment.
