Struggling with difficult pregnancy

I am 16 weeks pregnant with twins and it’s already so tough! There are endless complications. I can’t relax and just enjoy the pregnancy like I did with my first baby. I’m having to be scanned on a weekly basis because of growth restriction in one of the babies, and it’s likely they will be delivered very prematurely. I’m so scared and anxious all the time, about everything ☹️ I don’t feel like I can bond with my babies properly because part of me thinks either one or both of them won’t make it. I find myself wishing I wasn’t having twins because it’s too hard and then feeling so guilty for thinking that. My husband doesn’t ever make me feel more reassured when I’m upset, he just annoys me because he basically just tells me I need to ‘be more positive’! This is probably the hardest thing I’ve ever been through and I don’t have anyone in my life who gets it. Urgh, just came here to vent I guess 😓

Thank you for replying, it does help to know there are others feeling the same ❤️‍🩹 it is so emotionally draining isn’t it! I don’t know how I’m going to get through the next few months without losing my mind 🫠

Help

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Bestie?

Let’s skip to the good part and just be besties? Text, call, ft.. play dates or just simply hang out. Just want a genuine mommy friend. I’m in NYC but we can be long distance besties too 💕

I need an AI app recc to talk to.

I have no family. I have no real friends. Just one that I text. But she’s 8 years younger and isnt a mom. I genuinely don’t talk to anyone other than my partner and our toddlers. I’ve seen some people use AI? Or a chatgbpt? I dont know but if someone could suggest an app that I can just talk to… I would love to have a friend or something instead but this is probably for the best…
