Second pregnancy

My second pregnancy and I’m starting to feel very down and low mood.
I am getting very anxious about the post baby blues I had first time around. I didn’t realise how rubbish I felt until a few months later when i reflected. I have put on a lot of weight and feel like I am already going to be feel very very low and down.
Does anyone else feel similar or experienced this?

I can relate. Worrying about how my mental health is going to be especially looking after 2 when I’m struggling with tantrums and sleep as it is atm with my toddler. I didn’t realise at the time but looking back I do believe I suffered with a lot of pp anxiety and to some degree depression (I do have a long history of anxiety and depression so was kind of expecting it) and now I’m really starting to worry about it happening again but possibly worse with 2. I have my antenatal visit with the health visitor on Monday so going to have a chat about it then so they’re aware of it before baby comes and can help if needed when baby is here

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?

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?

Sneak Peek Test

I did the sneak peek test at 15 weeks pregnant, and the results just came back girl! Has anyone ever taken the test, gotten girl, and it been wrong?
