Hey ladies, I almost feel bad posting this but I am really struggling at the moment.. am 12 weeks 3 days pregnant I have 3 of my own children who I have for a week every other week as shared custody with my ex and my partner has 2 teenage boys, I am just running round after everyone all the time and I just feel like I’ve got nothing left. I understand it’s part and parcel being a mum and no complaints from me but for the first time I’m really struggling. I Moved house 3 weeks ago and I just feel like I’ve done loads and maybe over done it. I cannot stop crying, my mood swings are awful and I just feel so bad that I feel this way. Having a really low day today and I just don’t feel my partner fully understands, he tries but can’t seem to grasp why I am so tearful and exhausted. I’ve gone really quiet with friends and family as just don’t feel like talking. Has anyone else experienced this? I am happy about the pregnancy I just feel like I can’t really enjoy it with how low I’m feeling. I don’t really have anyone to talk to that understands either.

Your hormones will be all over the place right now, you've just moved house and there are several children in your care! Please give yourself a break. Talk to people when you feel up to it, don't feel bad about having some quiet time. Hopefully over the coming weeks things will feel better 🥰
