Feeling guilty about getting pregnant 8 months postpartum.

Hi there, I have an almost three year old, and 8 month old and I just found out I’m pregnant. I’m having a hard time feeling bad about my baby not being the baby anymore or not having much 1 on 1 time with me. Anyone else have had this happen?

Did you/will you take your 2 year old out of nursery when your second baby arrived?

I feel bad leaving my October 2024 baby in nursery 2 days a week, when I'll be off on mat leave from mid December for my late Dec/early Jan baby. But time alone with baby might be good for us?

Did/will you have yours home with you or continue their usual nursery/childcare routine?

26 weeks glucose test twins

I know a lot of people are generally scared about this test, but honestly, in my experience today, it was straightforward and not bad at all . The drink was thick and tasted like soft lemonade with a taste of honey towards the end (I don't know why it had the aftertaste, but it was a good drink) 🤣

I just felt tired after towards the end (obviously sugar crash), then took my second lot of bloods, then I was on my merry way.
So I spent most of the day resting and trying to just keep myself distracted and ended up never getting the phone call amd my results came back normal so overall I'm happy about that and I hope this post might ease people's anxious thoughts about the process but you got nothing to worry about. Again, my experience was different, but everyone's experiences to the test are different, and that is normal, too, btw.

But let me know how you guys get on with the test.

7 More Days Until Baby Month 🥳

What have you mamas or mamas to be have been doing to keep the time going? Has anyone tried dates yet? Dancing? Walking? Hobbies? These last few weeks are exciting exhausting but boring sometimes bc I don’t know what else to do 😩

Finally packed 🥳 but still no date?

Today I have finally packed my hospital bags 👏🏼 38 weeks on Monday and 3rd baby so a bit late but I’m due a planned c section at 39 weeks although I still don’t have a date and im stressing.

Really don’t want to go into natural labour myself before and end up in an emergency section. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Is anyone else still waiting for a date??

36 weeks and 6 days

So I'm 36 weeks and 6 days pregnant and I am 2 cm dilated. Hopefully my little girl will hold out a little longer until the first of October since we will have money for gas for the car then. Only 8 days way. Hopefully it's slow progressing.

Nervous

Has anybody ever had a chemical pregnancy and felt so nervous to try again because the thought of having another one if so, how did you guys overcome the fear of wanting to try again but also nervous enough not to want to because July 31 I found out I was pregnant and August 14. I ended up having a chemical pregnancy and I really want to try again but I’m just anxious because I don’t want to experience that kind of heartbreak ever again.
