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

Have you been prescribed xoneva?

I've had a tough pregnancy too. Sounds like HG to me. Gets you down being so sick all the time and also being unable to do all the things you want to because of feeling unwell. You're not the only one feeling like this! Not long to go now till baby arrives. Take care xx

Second baby worries

Me and my partner have a beautiful 3 year old daughter but a few months ago decided we wanted another we were both so excited when we found out a couple of weeks ago we got pregnant, I’m about 6 weeks now and all I see on here or other social media for that matter is negative responses to having a second child (not saying people regretted it but that they wouldn’t want another like 1 is perfect) like it ruined the family dynamic or it’s so much harder you’ll have no time for yourselves or why would you want to start all over again when it’s so hard, so I guess I’m just asking all those mums out there who have got more than one if you could flood me with how amazing you’re little family is now you’ve got your squad 😂 I don’t know if it’s the hormones kicking in or the thought of giving birth again but I’m freaking out a little bit over here and would love some positivity to get me back on track for how excited I felt about adding another baby to our little family unit thank you ❤️

First trimester

Hi moms, how do you guys go to work or get anything done in the first trimester 😭 I feel like I’m just trying to survive each day with a long road ahead. I’m only 6 weeks with horrible fatigue, little to no appetite and morning sickness JUST started 😭

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...

New pregnancy

Hey mamas!!

My baby boy just turned 7 months old today! I found out on the 11th (three days ago) that I am pregnant again. I went to the dr yesterday to get labs drawn and my hcg test confirmed it. They estimate me to be about 4 weeks, but are unsure right now since i did not have a period postpartum (exclusively breastfeeding).

I am pretty sure I have felt every emotion possible. Shocked, scared, stressed, excited, everything. The last couple days have been something.

I just turned 20 in September. I will have 2 babies before I even turn 21.

Does anyone have any words of wisdom, advice, or just any positive words for me😂

I am terrified to say the least, but also cannot wait for my beautiful boy to be the best big brother ever.

Dye stealer??

Is this a dye stealer? Promised myself I’d stop testing once I’d had one. Anxiety levels are very high in these early weeks😵‍💫
