Not sure how to feel

Don't know how to feel. I'm 15 weeks pregnant with my first child I'm only 20 and it wasn't planned at all. I could never get rid or put my baby up for adoption ever, but I constantly feel I'll never get excited fully about my pregnancy. I always feel down and upset and I feel quite alone. I know the right thing to do is talk to my partner or my family but I have done this numerous times with both and I feel they don't fully understand me. Feeling pretty lost at the moment and not sure what to do. Is this normal? How should I approach his? X

Your midwife and gp are also resources you might consider looking into using...

I was like this my first 20 or so weeks. I wasnt excited or feeling particularly happy about the baby at all. My baby was planned and took 6 months so i wasnt expecting to feel so meh about it.

Im 34 weeks now and have only just started to get excited. Ive started shopping for baby stuff and my bump is huge so i suppose it just feels more real now.

I think alot of expecting mums feel the same, its just not talked about as everyone expects you to be over the moon the whole 9 months. I would think most feel happier by the time baby comes.

Definitely talk to your midwife about this. She'll understand what your going through.
