						<p>A first time for everything. <strong>Ashley Kelsey</strong> has been battling anxiety while pregnant with her first child.</p>


<p>“Every day all day hahaha,” the <strong><em>Challenge</em></strong> alum, 34, wrote on her Sunday, January 17, Instagram Story when a fan asked if she was experiencing any anxiety since finding out she is expecting. “I’ve never had anxiety before until I got pregnant and now I worry about everything.”</p>
<p>The former reality star went on to write that “if COVID wasn’t a thing,” she would be able to “work out regularly” and improve her mental health. “[If I] wasn’t so isolated during my pregnancy, it wouldn’t be as bad as it is,” she added. “Anyone who is pregnant right now knows.”</p>

<p>When an Instagram user asked the Connecticut native how she’s been coping with the symptoms, she replied, “Well I don’t really drink so I never turn to alcohol and I don’t take medicine, so for me nothing has changed because I’m pregnant. I will say taking a hike, working out has always been my go to, talking to close friends, writing down resolutions to my problems or ways I can cope. Oh, and finding a good meditation on YouTube and just relaxing helps too.”</p>
<p>The pregnant star announced in December 2020 that she is <strong>expecting her first child</strong>, a baby girl, with athlete <strong>Kerryon Johnson</strong>.</p>

Our biggest blessing yet.”</p>
