I'm alright thanks, 20 week scan next week. Hope that things gets moving soon !

Hello chick! No i am still the size of a house! How are you doing hun?

This thread is a lifesaver, i feel so much better sharing how i feel, luckily DD is at nursery today so she gets some quality fun time and i get to sit and eat rest!

Hello Heeby - haven't you dropped YET?

Thank god for this thread!!! Am 35 weeks and DD 2 and a half and I have felt like a rubbish mum lately! We are usually really busy and active and she is starting to think Peppa Pig is her family! Somedays better than others, today i managed to get her to her dance class! Yesterday awful though.

Kept feeling ill like i was going to faint and just burst into tears. Its frustration more than anything, and guilt!!!

So pleased to know I am not alone!

We must put far too much pressure on ourselves to be supermum!

I am even appeasing her with freddo bars (at regular intervals).

DP gets home and I just hand it all over to him! Feel bad about that too! Always think that he thinks I am being pathetic... even though he never says so!

I felt like that for last few weeks with DS2 (DS1 was 18 months when he was born so about the same as your gap). Your DS won't remember any of this. Just try to get visitors to coo over him, rather than the baby, so he gets a surplus of attention in a few weeks time.

(And at least it is only a few weeks - this time I started to feel like that from 8 weeks when started to be sick!)

Hi, i am due next week and last night was in tears as i feel so awful not being able to 'dance/swing/roll around/run' with DD (2.4). Everything hurts and i'm sooo fed up.

It's nice (sorry) to hear that i'm not alone, very reassuring.

I'm sure we are all great mums and do all we can to keep everyone happy.

I'm due today. The last few weeks have been so hard and felt really bad yesterday when my Little girl was sat on my bed watching Peppa Pig and I was on the sofa watching This Morning.

I think everyone goes through the same thing.

I find the best thing to do is invite friends over for her to play with.

I usually find that the mummies help tidy up and it keeps her entertained for a bit.

Don't feel bad I'm sure you're a great mum

Sorry for ranting on your thread. I am just sick of getting up and down with the other two whilst DH plays his playstation.
Grrrrrrrrr.

Thanks for your kind wishes and good luck to you too.

oh Suwoo, I'm sorry. Can you kick up the a**e bigtime? I bet you are a brilliant mum and wish you all the best with the birth and new one. Hope it gets better.

Thanks everyone else, really really reassuring...can go to bed a little less sad now.

No, I'm a brilliant mum at 35 weeks. DH on the other hand is doing fuck all .

Sorry, just pissed off.
