Hi. I'm 6-7 weeks pregnant and this is my first pregnancy. I should be happy but I'm not. Initially we were shocked and over time I've felt so anxious and panicky that I started to feel that I didn't want this baby. I don't think I can cope with a child. I feel so so tired and depressed and down all the time with some really awful thoughts. I feel really guilty feeling like this. Also I'm 40 and my husband is 49 so we are really worried about how we will cope. Is it normal to feel like this?
