Stressed?

Anyone else stressed that it’s like 4 months till we give birth? It’s gone so quickly and I really don’t feel prepared. 😣

17 weeks and counting 😂

I only made it to 37 last time before the pre eclampsia hit and I had my little one a bit early. I genuinely shudder at the idea of being pregnant longer than that but 14-19 weeks to go minimum to max unless it's a pre term! I just count the weeks down rather than up now. Makes me feel better

Absolutely same here, I am definitely panicking. It's flown by scarily fast and still so much to do - the baby's room is still my old dressing room / dumping ground and all we have so far is a pram and a car seat and a few sleepsuits and vests. Problem is the more pregnant I get the less I feel like tackling any of this stuff, 😭

Stressed because we still have the nursery and a lot of buying to do but also sooo impatient I just wanna meet her already

I genuinely think I’m in denial 😆 like “I don’t have to deal or think about that yet” … 😶😅

Definitely goes quicker after your first 😅 I also feel under prepared at the moment ..

I’m mixed! I feel like it’s going too fast and I have no idea what I’m doing and what I need to get done and I’m scared when little one arrives cause he’s my first and I don’t know what I’m doing but it’s also dragging as I’ve been so poorly I just want him out now 😆 also keep being told your first one is usually 2 weeks late!!! I’m like don’t tell me that!!!

ahhh that’s good to know, mine is due end of may but my birthday is mid June. So he might pop out and share the same birthday 🤣🤣

Me, I feel the first 12 weeks were quite slow and now it's going so quickly

I’m mixed 50/50 because I got a toddler too and I don’t know what to expect how we going to handle it how I’m going to manage and again back to zero sleep 😫the sleepless nights I’m not looking forward to but I hope I will be able to manage don’t really have other choice😅and I’m bit worried for my toddler for spending less time with him as I will be busy with baby aswel but I hope all will work out well in the end

Anxiety with the bump.

I’m 36 weeks pregnant and I’ve suddenly developed a massive anxiety around anyone standing behind me. My husband is annoying me so much because even though I’ve told him how it makes me feel, he’s continued doing stuff in our kitchen (that is tiny anyway) and sliding past me to grab things. I know the baby is safe even if I were to bump the bump a little but even the thought of it is still making extremely anxious. How do I cope with this feeling and is anyone else going through the same sort of thing?

Breathless and feeling like I need to be sitting constantly!

Has anyone else been feeling this way as they're getting closer to their due date?

I attempted to change our bedding this evening and had to call my husband for back up as I literally felt like my lungs were going to explode just trying to reach over to put the sheet on.

I'm huffing and puffing just getting my toddler into his pjs, and I was sat down! Like what is going on 😮‍💨🥲

Everything has been check ie bloods etc so I think it's just general pregnancy as I'm now 38 weeks. My bump feels like it weighs about 100lbs 😭

Friends wedding abroad

Hi all. I know this is FTM... But really need advice. I am currently pregnant with baby #2. Only 8 weeks. I didn't want to tell anyone yet, my partner and boss knows (needed for risk assessment reasons annoyingly). My friend is getting married in a remote part of Spain in ~3 months. I've already had a few minor complications, pain, bleeding, vanishing twin... I got preeclampsia last pregnancy and a terrible birth.
I am pretty sure I don't feel comfortable flying and then travelling out to a remote part of Spain during pregnancy. It will just be me and my toddler. I know it's overcautious but I just don't feel comfortable. I'm not even sure if I am going to be classified as high risk pregnancy or not.
How do I handle this? I need to tell her ASAP, but I didn't really want to tell anyone yet as doc told me miscarriage risk is a bit increased with vanishing twin. Any ideas?

When to prepare?

I’m 34w1d with my second baby. Today at my midwife appointment she said baby is 2/5 engaged, I’ve packed my hospital bags but unsure when to start building baby’s crib. Installing car seat ect. When is everyone else doing these things?

Anxious/depressed

My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?
