They do. You’re both just going through a lot. Good and hard! Hormones don’t help either which amplify feelings right now. Maybe see if someone can give you all an hour of time by yourselves? You could also do a therapy session just to talk through things. Hang in there. It’s so, so hard.

hey girl, i understand you. i think it’s more of a grief thing (for me) because i overthink at night about how we used to be, how our sex life was, and everything we could do or did. communication is key, it might just be what ur feeling because men don’t think so much about things like that so for him it’s probably jst because he doesn’t want to be seen as a bother so he’s not so affectionate. or maybe he feels like ur the one that’s not “the same”. I hate confrontation so if ur anything like me, what I do is wait for bed time, baby asleep or not. the lights are off and just speak about it. so there is no distractions or u feel embarrassed. i promise u will feel so much better, especially if there was a reason behind it. don’t feel wrong for feeling this way, i definitely go through this a lot, especially during night because that’s when i overthink. u got this

Nursing pillow

Hello, 37 weeks here and starting to overthink everything I've prepared (or not) for the baby. We haven't got a nursing pillow yet, but I now wonder if it is something that we should consider buying? I'm planning to breastfeed and this is our first baby, so all still very abstract to us.
Do you have one? How are you finding it?

Small age gap

Morning everyone!🥰

I am just after some honest advise
I have an 8 month old, soon to be 9 months and I have found out I am 7 weeks pregnant. It will be a 16 month age gap which is quite a small gap, is anyone else in the same position or similar age gap?

How did people/ your employer react?
I haven’t gone back to work yet, I am due back next month and I am really struggling with the thought of telling them I am pregnant again as I will only be back at work for around 5/6 months and I feel awful!

Thank you in advance☺️

Support please 🩷

I’m not sure why exactly I’m posting this but I discovered last night that I’m pregnant, I think about 4 weeks. It wasn’t planned and I’m so scared of going through all the tough months again. 😔 I can’t imagine how I will look after two together.

Proud of myself

Finally letting go! Finally accepting that I’ll be a single mom and doing it without the father. Overtime I will learn to become comfortable with this more and more. I am finally going to walk away. I know I will be fine, I can do this. I just hope my next pregnancy be everything I’ve ever wanted but for right now I will just accept it and I can’t wait to meet my baby boy in 3 months!
