One and done??

I am starting to feel the pressure- everyone around me is falling pregnant for a second time.

I really think I might be one and done!

Those of you who are pregnant again, how did you know you were ready?

I am definitely one and done! I had an horrendous pregnacy and post partum was not too pleasant either my mental health was affected. Ive had a few people say I should be having another and I just say no I shouldn't how can I be the best mum I can be to my son if my mental health is affected again like last time. My son is my priority and I will do whats best for him 💙

I think definitely don’t rush into doing something someone else wants you to do! If you feel 1 and done is the right thing for you and that’s what you want that’s completely fine ! Remember it’s your choice. It’s so hard when everyone around you is telling you to have another one tho. I feel like I know myself and I know I’m not ready yet in any way so whenever someone says something to me I just tell them that it’s not really their place to be telling me to have another baby if they aren’t the one taking care of the baby. (Sorry I’m not pregnant again haha but just wanted to chip in 💙)

Planned C-section date

Hi everyone
I’m having a planned C due to some health complications of my own, I’ve had the date set but it’s only 6 days before my due date. I’ve read up and it says normally it’s at least two weeks before in case baby starts to come naturally.

Just wanted to check on here and see how far in advance yours are from your due dates. Thinking I might go back and tell them I need it to be moved forward?

Thanks everyone 🥰
(And best of luck for yours!)

Having Anxiety

I found out a few days ago that I’m pregnant. I’m ecstatic about it and excited to finally be on this journey. My husband and I have been trying for 2 years. Now that it’s happening, I keep feeling anxious that it’s not actually happening…you know? Like the 3 tests I’ve taken and were all positive were all fake positives or something. Has anyone else felt like that? I’m 4 1/2 weeks right now and I know it’s very early. I guess I’m just anxious that I’m imaging it all.
