Did anyone else have preemie?

I feel like my anxiety is much worse this postpartum time because he was a c section at 36 weeks and was a preemie and had to be taken to the nicu for the first 8 hours because he swallowed fluid and was having issues breathing….he was 6 pounds 11 ounces and now he’s 7 months old and is 19 pounds and is in the 75th percentile but I still worry when he coughs or sneezes

Emotional and lost

This is my first pregnancy and the whole experience has been horrible. I see other mums enjoying their time and I hear about the pregnancy glow but I've vomited everyday throughout despite trying multiple antiemetics (but not enough to be classed as Hyperemesis Gravidarum), the pain has been crippling at times, I've had to go on maternity leave 2 months before the baby is even due because I physically can not cope anymore. From all this I've just felt lower and lower in mood as time goes on. I'm still excited for our child but at times I wish that I had never chosen to have a baby because although I knew it would be hard I didn't anticipate feeling this unwell constantly

The pressure

Hello! I’m 37 weeks pregnant ( 38 Friday ) first time mama and the pressure I’m feeling I don’t know if I’m closer to Labour then I think I am? I’m due the 30th October and little madam is having a good old party in there, I feel very aware of my private area like sensitive and the pressure near my butthole basically, does this mean anything or am i overthinking it?

Baby number 2 bs

I'm so tired of people asking when baby number two is coming or are you planning for baby number two, I just had my first people were already asking this less than 24 hours after giving birth to him, I don't want another kid to begin with! I was dead set on only having one kid and everyone's just like I will see about that, oh you can't be too sure, or just disregarding what I've said and how I feel! Including my husband he has made countless remarks on him wanting another kid and I thought I made it clear to him that I only want one kid and I thought he was on the same page as me but I assumed wrong and clearly we are not...
