Am pregnant, second time around, and unlike the first this is so different.

I am so fed up of strangers being astonished when I say my due date, that I took to lying to a stranger today, because I thought I would cry if I told her the truth and got the usual response of astonishment etc.

My dh is a good person, working away a lot atm and I feel miserable and anxious from how big I am, to the planned c section, to the baby itself.

I feel like hibernating more and more recently, it's only because I have a school aged child that keeps me functioning.

I realise how daft this sounds, but it really gets me down at times and it's an effort to find motivation sometimes. I've had depression on and off in the past, PND with the first, and been fine for the last year and a bit, which is why I feel a bit gutted that I feel like I am just bobbing along for now.

How pathetic am I? Really need to break the cycle I appear to be in going from high to low lately

Thanks mememummy for the post. I've posted a few times in the past (under another name) when I am in a low but it was nice someone was listening that time.
