Someone hand me a grip, please!!!
About 8 weeks pregnant with DC2. I should be overjoyed but I am spending all my time feeling sorry for myself!
Just feeling so tired and nauseous. And tearful. And for some reason my IBS-D has really flared up and you're supposed to limit taking Buscopan when pregnant.
We had planned 3 years between DC1 and DC2 but we got carried away as feeling broody and DC1 was being very good and charming and we thought how lovely it would be for him to have a little brother or sister. Except now he has stopped sleeping through and I am panicking thinking he will be entering terrible twos just when DC2 arrives.
Oh and we had planned a really special foreign holiday, which now we won't be taking, and a major building project which I am now panicking won't be completed in time. And I've got a brand new bike which I haven't even ridden yet!
Ugh I hate this stage. Really looking forward to post-12 weeks when hopefully I will stop being sick and start being very constipated. And at least then I can tell everyone and start to get excited! I hate the not-telling stage, I am dying to moan to everyone at work, to my mum and all my friends. I have a friend's birthday tomorrow, really don't feel like going but don't want to tell him why. I haven't even told my MN postnatal club!
Please tell me that I'm going to start feeling glowy soon, and ultimately have a beautiful squishy baby that DC1 will adore from day 1???
