Is this a bad omen or normal?

I'm 30 weeks, up until last week I was happy and excited about baby. I'm now in a 24/7 anxious state. I just don't think this baby is going to make it. I've gone in for checks, everything's fine at the moment, but I've just got this horrible gut feeling somethings going to go wrong.

Just last week I was decorating the babies nursery and now I can't even stomach going in the room. I keep looking at all the stuff we've bought and feeling sad that it'll never be used. I'm so hurt by these feelings but can't push them aside. Is this normal or is my body warning me about something?

Oh no OP, I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. Please speak to your midwife - I believe this is a sign of antenatal depression. My friend had it and was extremely anxious throughout her pregnancy (but didn't tell anyone) and then suffered very badly from PND too. Her baby is happy and healthy (and gorgeous!). Take care of yourself.

It just feels so certain. I'm so confident baby won't be coming home with me I feel I could bet my life on it. I said to my midwife that I'm scared something will go wrong and she said everyone is but chances are it'll be fine. It just doesn't feel that way, it feels definite.

I had resigned myself that something terribly wrong was going to happen in my last pregnancy, but hadn’t told anyone. Luckily for me, the baby was born perfectly fine, and is now a lively 4 year old.
Hopefully it all works out for you too!

I used to get horrible feelings I would miscarry as soon as I'd told a new set of people I was pregnant. I think you're experiencing something similar after doing the room and buying stuff. Just your mind saying 'what if'. Just keep an eye on your movements and keep talking to people

I'm also feeling like this as its bloody awful. Had 2 losses before, I'm due in 2 days, been for monitoring and scans and they keep saying shes fine and doctor spoke to me like a peace of crap. Feel stressed and anxious every day I've told my midwife but she said it was normal. Just want my girl here safe and well!!! X
