Feeling guilty on first born

I’m being induced on Friday and I’ve just put my little girl to bed and am so upset that it won’t be just us anymore. Obviously we’re so excited for her new sister but I just feel guilty and sad that things won’t be the same again.

Does anyone else feel like this? 😞😞😞

This is exactly my feelings right now, I am currently lay on our bed cuddling my little boy, enjoying our last night as just him before being induced tomorrow. Have so many emotions of guilt, excitement and worry how he will be having to share me.

Me😔 at one point it was just me and my little girl before I met my current partner. I’m already feeling guilty that I won’t have as much time for her as I usually do

Ooh yes. The night before my second born came I cried my eyes out because I was so sad and guilty. I’m not going to lie, it did take a bit of time to find that balance, but someone said to me ‘when you have a second, your heart doesn’t divide, it multiplies’ and it’s so true.

It’s an emotional, hormonal, crazy transition period but you’ll soon settle and it will be wonderful ❤️

Goal weight gain:

So I’m 6 weeks pregnant with my second baby. With my first baby I gained the maximum recommended weight weight for my starting weight I was 165lbs (give or take a little) I got up to 190lbs.
With this pregnancy my starting is 148lbs my goal is to gain no more than 25lbs and for the first trimester try not to gain any weight at all.

I have people in my life that think I need to just eat what ever and not take care of my self (in the sense of eating whatever I want and not working out anymore) because I’m pregnant. Now don’t get me wrong I eat my cravings but I don’t over indulge and I also am over all more into healthier and filling meals.

I get hungry about 4-6 times a day and if I don’t eat I get seriously sick so I have adjusted my life to make it work.

My poll is: do/did you have really bad cravings?

37 weeks ! 😬

I literally only have two doctor appointments left until I'm supposed to be due . I'm super excited and nervous at the same time, but I went to the doctor and I'm only one centimeter dilated so I'm just curious if any other first time moms gave birth earlier than their due date or is normal to go past your due date ? TIA ☺️

Dumb question

So I’m 35 weeks and 3 days and I’m starting to experience Braxton hicks and it just started Friday. I do have an ob appointment on Friday coming up. Has anybody else experienced Braxton hick and were you dilated before your next appointment?

6 months pp

1. I can not believe my baby is 6 months on the 26th :,)
2. When did everyone wait to get pregnant with #2?
3. Did anyone get pregnant at 6 months plans have a vbac? Or a fully successful pregnancy?

I’m in the waiting phase for my second baby

Please comment how far along were you when your baby came. I’m trying to see if I have realistic expectations on when my second baby might come. First came at 39W+1 and I’m currently 38W+1 with my second. I’m hoping she comes at 39W like her brother.
