Sad of the idea of baby no longer living inside me.
Soo I’m ending my pregnancy soon, and I’m very excited to meet baby and hold her. I’m scared of so many things, tbh I don’t really understand why I’m going to miss this chapter of pregnancy sm or the feeling I have about it all. I want her here so bad but my heart hurts at the same time already missing her. I have fears of sm and know the upcoming chapters are going to be hard. I also know this is a hard challenge for some with ppd and am unsure how to handle this.

This chapter of pregnancy is different for every mom; so your reasons for missing it will be different from others. —-But know that you’re not alone in feeling this way.
And regarding to being unsure of how to handle this:
1) start with your medical team. Speak to your primary nurse or your doctor.
They will help. And also they can connect you with more people who will help you with these feelings.
2) take everything one day at a time. If you want to write about it, then write about it. whenever you start feeling like you’re going to miss this particular chapter, write it down. It could be in a journal, on a post it note, or even on your phone as a txt msg to yourself or in your Notes App.
That’s what I did. I would write letters/notes in my phone’s notes app. I still do it even today.
It’s called: letters to my daughter
thank you 💗
