No excitement over baby

Hi everyone. I didn’t know where to write this but I feel I have no one to talk to about it. I am 19 weeks pregnant with my third baby. I didn’t really want another baby as I have two children who are 10 and 15- I just agreed because my husband doesn’t have any children himself. I thought that once I found out I was pregnant that feeling would go away but it hasn’t. I don’t feel maternal at all towards it. I love my two children to bits and I’m worried that was this baby won’t be like them and I won’t like it because it has a different father. I am worried that if I go to the doctor or midwife about how I’m feeling, social services will get involved. Has anyone had any experience of this happening to them? Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Hi there, OP. We're just bumping your thread in the hope that someone will be along soon with some useful advice.

Also, we wondered if you might find some RL support from any of the organisations listed here in our Mental Health resources.

Best of luck to you, OP.
