Toughen up tips

[JKD1982]

Hi ladies

A random on for a Monday morning. I’m 33 weeks pregnant and preparing for the last stage and his arrival.

I’ve had a pretty normal pregnancy I’d say so far (first timer) morning sickness, heartburn, breathing issues etc. But being a bit of a wimp already and on top of that the coronavirus madness I’ve been more of a mess than I’d hoped I would be.

I realised I want to try and make the last few weeks enjoyable and feel in control of my body and less scared. And moan to my husband less. Not for him, but for me.

Any advice on how to stay mentally tough and stop being such a wimp?! I don’t want the whole process to be fearful. Some of my friends say it’s so empowering and they felt like superwoman growing a baby. Anyone?! Thoughts?
Thanks

Hypnobirthing? I used Maggie Howells CDs.

But I think you should talk to your MW. Mental health is important - don't neglect it.

I did the positive birth company online course and it really helped me be more calm and feel in control.

Good luck! When the time comes you’ll be great. X

Hello,

I would download the Calm app, they send you helps and tips every morning and allows you to relax.
