Hi, I just found out at Christmas im pregnant and we had been trying for a few months. My husband was always really keen on a baby and I was about 60/40 for having one but I did have doubts. I'm now 5-6 weeks pregnant and all I can think about is the negative, I cant seem to see any happiness in it at all and I feel sick with worry I've ended up doing the wrong thing. I do suffer with quite bad anxiety anyways and take citalopram for it and also see a counsellor but this has knocked me for 6. My husband is really happy but I'm just not.
Im hoping the more I get used to the idea the less anxious I will be but at the moment I'm really not sure I want this. I dont know if its the anxiety taking over or if this is how I really feel. I want to want the baby and be happy but right now I just dont.
Anyone else feeling the same?
