Little rant 😕

Is anyone else feeling emotional/mental pressure now that their due date is lingering?
I’m due on Friday and really didn’t anticipate the guilt I’d feel when I hear family/friends say things like “oh come on baby where are you?!”, always with an air of exasperation 😕
Like I’m sorry that I’m not producing your child/grandchild/child’s play mate any quicker but these people think THEY’RE exhausted with waiting?

I can’t believe how much this is bugging me but it’s a weird pressure that I really didn’t expect 😣

Struggling with overthinking and not feeling myself at 17 weeks

I’m 17 weeks and having a bit of an emotional week accompanied by a lot of overthinking 🥲

I’m a FTM and for the last couple of weeks I’ve really been struggling with having no sex drive and feeling like I’m neglecting my partner because of it. On top of that, I just don’t feel particularly attractive at the moment. I don’t really know how to dress my changing body and I’m struggling with not quite feeling like myself as everything changes.

I’ve also started worrying a lot about how the dynamic of our relationship might change once the baby is here and what it will mean for us as a couple. You see and hear so much about relationships struggling after having a baby, and I think I’ve got myself into a bit of an overthinking spiral about it.

I’m so happy and excited to have our little baby and feel incredibly lucky, which then makes me feel guilty for having all these negative thoughts and worries at the same time. I just can’t seem to get myself out of this headspace at the moment.

Any reassuring words or experiences from anyone who’s felt similarly would really be appreciated 🥲🤍
