Hello,

I am 12 weeks pregnant with my first child and have my dating scan tomorrow. I am absolutely dreading it 🙁I am not excited about it at all, and I feel like I have no connection with my unborn baby.

My partner and I were excited to start trying for a baby and we have been talking about it all year so decided to start in July and I got pregnant really fast. At first, I was really excited, making lists and trying to be prepared and then the morning sickness and hormones hit. I completely went crazy and couldn't stop crying. Since week 7 I have been anxious about everything and have been questioning everything to do with my life. I.e., do I want a baby, what if I give birth and hate the baby, do I even want to be with my partner anymore, do I like my dog anymore.

I have just completely spiralled and it's really getting me down because I don't want to feel like this at all. Has anybody else been through this and can you relate at all?

Thank you

You poor thing. Make sure you speak to your midwife / GP who can offer you some extra support. I hope you feel better after your scan :)
