sorry if this a bit early to worry but just feelin it 2nite.

dp didn’t come to midwife again. says workin but i dunno. just don’t think he bothered 😔 my mum said she’d try b there but her health not great lately n it depends on time of day n taxis etc.

i was hopin maybe someone from dp side cud come but not close to any of them. my mates r all online now n the ones i knew in real life sort of drifted.

i just keep thinkin i might be on my own in the hospital when i have this baby n i feel really scared about it. like what if i panic or cant speak up or just get overwhelmed.

this baby feels more real than i expected n i feel more connected than i did in my other pregnancys tbh. i wanna do it proper this time if that makes sense??

dunno if anyone else had a baby with no 1 there n it was ok??

sorry if this silly. just feelin like no1 gonna turn up 😢

Don’t worry if you are alone. The midwives will offer you support and so many women are in your position so don’t feel like it’s only you xx

Are you the same person who posted about their son going to college and the house being overcrowded etc?
I think your dp sounds quite shit so I wouldn’t depend on him, I’d look to seeing if a friend could be your birthing partner.
Are you sure you are doing the right thing? It all sounds quite stressful.

yeh thats me. n ur right about him tbh. i was hopin he’d step up but i dont think he will. dont really have close friends so prob just me n midwives. i do want this baby tho, even if its scary… i jus wish it didnt all feel so much at once.
