To not feel any different ?

I saw someone say on Instagram " the day you get your positive pregnancy test your world changes " .

I have just found out I am pregnant and feel no different to be honest. I can't yet believe it until I have had a scan .

Baby was planned but has come a lot sooner than we expected, we already have a 2 year old . I don't feel different really and I guess I'm just wondering if anyone else didn't feel as much excitement the 2nd time round ?

Don't get me wrong I am chuffed to bits but can't see me rushing out buying clothes for baby as soon as iv peed on the stick ( which is the kind of thing I did with baby number 1)

YANBU. I felt a bit meh with my first - I don’t think I really believed it until he was born Grin

Ah totally the same here. Of course nothing changes, you are the same person and you still have to feed and entertain your two year old. Mine was 16 months when I found out and I thought ah that's nice...now I will put everything pregnancy-wise on the back burner until maybe month 6 or something (buying clothes, worrying about the two kids interacting etc)

Congratulations!

Instagram is full of people talking bollocks about how perfect people should react. Ignore it! You are completely normal.

My entire life changed as soon as I saw a positive test and nothing about it has been the same since.

@TheSoapyFrog yes I do feel my life has completely changed since having my 2nd year old. With knowing I am pregnant again though I feel the same
