Bit of background, we struggled to have our first and had to have IVF. 'Surprise' 2nd pregnancy, with awful HG. Ever since I found out I've been worried how I'll cope (even though if you'd asked me if I wanted a 2nd child I would have jumped at the chance, but am now thinking that might just have been down to thinking that it would never happen). I love my first DC (15 months now) but it's such hard work sometimes.
He's at nursery, I'm really well supported but yet I still feel a sense of dread about what the future holds. I feel like I was just getting my life back on track, working again, going out now and then etc. I just feel like I'm being so ungrateful!
I keep reading threads about how awful and difficult it is. Please tell me it'll be ok? I want to be able to enjoy my children, and not just 'cope' or get by.
Thank you and please be gentle!
