Hello all, I'm very new to all this so please be gentle with me. I'm 32 and this is my first pregnancy. My partner, who in all fairness wasn't exactly Mr Reliable to start out, has had a massive panic attack and left (the pregnancy wasn't planned). There's very little chance he'll return. I've yet to see a midwife and, given the circumstances, have yet to tell anybody other than my G.P and my housemate about my pregnancy. I generally feel quite alone and thought I'd reach out to you ladies in the hope of some consoling words, and perhaps some advice - I rather feel like I'm in a void. I'm not yet in receipt of any useful medical advice and I can't talk to other mum's of my acquaintance as I'm still trying to keep the news from filtering out. Which means that every tiny twinge feels like a disaster and my lack of general symptoms such as morning sickness mean I've managed to persuade myself that the worst has probably happened. I think I'm around 7 weeks.
