So I'm nearing my due date with my second baby and the anxiety is hitting me hard. I had a terrible experience with my first and didn't feel looked after at all for so many reasons. I suffer from anxiety and this was on my notes last time and is again this time too.
I am absolutely freaking out about my partner having to leave me. He left me for one night with our first but they then moved me to a private room and let my partner stay because they were short staffed and he could help with baby as I was pretty much bed bound so saved me pushing my button for help.
Since covid I know the rules are stricter but I don't want to be left, I don't want my partner to leave me at all. He is my safe place and keeps me calm. I don't think they will give a hoot about how I feel and I know I don't deserve special treatment but I am even more scared this time round and I am worried he will have to go home every night.
