So the mood swings have kicked in, extreme fatigue and swollen feet. I honestly don't know how I'll cope with these symptoms. My SO is not being sensitive and I bet he doesn't even know what is going on with me because I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ME. Still trying to plan how I'll tell my parents? I was hoping that by now we'd be engaged and happy but it seems we're at each other's throats more often than not. Sometimes I get depressed and terrified that this will end up like my failed 4year relationship with the father of my DS?
My first pregnancy was horrible. Maybe it was because he was 22, I was 21, and young and very naïve but I was emotionally abused, and he constantly cheated on me. When our beautiful boy was born, he only held him after a whole 2months had passed, never changed nappies, never made a bottle, never woke up once for a feed even when I had exams!? A little traumatised still and I'm wondering if my anxiety in this pregnancy stems from that? Either way I love my SO and I know it will be different. Still super excited about my pregnancy though, looking forward to all the little joys along the way.
Wishing us all an exciting journey ahead, all you members of PregNation!
