Sorry this might be a long one! I am not sure how to even articulate what I feel in this my first pregnancy. The baby is due 24th march and I am dreading it! I have been what I can only describe as ambivalent towards the whole pregnancy at best (very sicky 1st trimester)
I am deeply mourning my old life - feel I have given everything up to have this baby and P has given up nothing.
All I do is cry and feel like I don't want the baby one day and then feel hideously guilty the next. (The baby was planned although was told it would take a while to conceive due to fertility issues) Although I conceived after 3 months.
Trying to get all baby supplies sorted and I am finding it ridiculously overwhelming, P says it will be fine and I just want to hit him - he has contributed nothing so far, not bothered to read anything, doesnt have a clue about what to buy and making no effort to find out. Are everyone's other halves like this?
I have cried at all my midwife appointments and they have referred me for counseling what I really need is someone to tell the wonderful bits of being a mum and to stop freaking out about bloody what to buy! Any help out there? - Sorry for the ramble any advice welcome
