When I fell pregnant in September my boy had just turned 3 and my girl was just 11months old so life was really good. The older my boy gets and the more time he's spending at school he's getting more cheeky and rude every day and my girl is so clingy and has a violent streak to her. She scratches and pulls hair and cries like no child I've ever heard.
This pregnancy wasn't unwanted at the time but the older my other 2 get I can't help but feel that I've done the wrong thing and I feel nothing but regret.
I'm not looking forward to the the arrival of this baby like I was my other two. In fact I'm dreading it.
They both want my attention all the time and if he doesn't get it he throws stuff or does usual attention seeking things and if she doesn't get attention she cries and screams, like she's doing now.
I do try to be positive but deep down I can't shift the feeling of guilt and I just feel like this baby is going to spoil the good times that we have.
All immediate friends and family have shown shock and displeasure at the news of our pregnancy. Not feeling good at all :(
