I know I will sound horribly ungrateful and I apologise to anyone who isn't pg and wants to be. I've been there, I spent 18 months TTC no. 2 and thinking it wouldn't happen.
Now it has and I'm about 14 weeks, and I just can't get my head into "having a baby" mode or get excited about baby stuff. I even got to hold a friend's beautiful newborn the other day and felt.... nothing much. In the past, and when TTC, I'd have wanted to snuggle her forever and run away with her.
I have seen our baby on the scan and I do love it, but I just don't focus on it much or think about it or really accept that a baby is on the way, if that makes sense.
I've had two months of nasty sickness and exhaustion that's still not over, and I'm fed up with it - it wasn't this bad last time and I wasn't expecting it. Could it be that and might I, in your experience, start to get into it and enjoy looking forward to a baby once that's over?
Also I would love any suggestions for something to help me relax and destress a bit once this blardy sickness subsides a bit. Mum-to-be massages/treatments etc if anyone can recommend anything you've tried.

I longed for this baby, so where has my broodiness gone?
