Your best advice for how to embrace a pregnancy, please.

[Tobily]

LoriRae, good on you for having the foresight to recognise this and reach out for help, and to want to make things different this time

If you can, get a hold of a copy of a book called Birthing From Within. It is a really spiritual, wholistic approach to pregnancy and it contains lots of practical exercises and advice for really connecting with your baby and your pregnancy. It's often recommended as a "birth book" but I think it's so much more than that and I reckon you'd find it really helpful.

Do whatever makes you feel good while you're pregnant, talk to your baby and talk to your hubby, friends and other people you can trust about your feelings too. Often the second time around we are much more realistic about things, and understand what to expect from pregnancy much better and that alone makes things so much easier.

Good luck hun x
