I am 34 weeks pregnant and recently had a fall and broke my ankle I happened just over a week ago. I went out at the beginning of the week with some friends they took me for lunch and to shops to cheer me up, for no reason I was hysterically crying. I feel too scared to go out not sure if it's fear of hurting myself or what? I feel so down depressed and useless. I think staying in is making me worse but I can't face going out. What can I do??

I'm 34 wks too. The weather has made me worried as well. It was an accident and your confidence is knocked, as well as ur balance. I think ur friends were lovely can u text them and say u would love to do again? I agree you might need support but as u say staying in can be worse.

Go on, u plainly enjoyed some of it, try again.

Thank u! I will try and get out over the weekend. It's so difficult as I have to be pushed around everywhere do feel like a burden I even have to have someone bring me to the loo. I just can't stop crying how am I going to manage when baby is born!!
