How can you tell?
I'm 16+2.
I've been steadily feeling worse for weeks. I'm usually a positive upbeat person, but now all day I sit and cry, when I'm supposed to be happy! This baby is very much wanted!
Irrationally, I feel like my DP is going to leave me short of money when I'm on SMP. I feel like he's going to leave me sitting in alone with the baby all the time. I feel like he's not going to be contactable when I go into labour. All this is irrational, he's given me no cause to think these things. He comes to every antenatal appointment with me, is being great. I spend all my time either snapping at him or crying.
I'm snappy at work, I'm not enjoying it at all. I feel like I can't cope. I can't handle a simple phone conversation, I'm dropping calls from my friends left, right and centre because I don't want to moan about how negative I'm feeling.
I am struggling to go out anywhere. All I want to do is hide. I resent DP because he can wind down at the end of the day with a glass of wine. His life isn't changing. Mine is never going to be the same again.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Sorry to moan, I'd just like to know I'm not insane.
