Don't feel pregant

[mummato3]

I can completly empathsize with you. Feeling very similar myself at the moment, just dont feel as though I can really 'bond' with this little one. Having three other children is a challenge, as I already feel as though this little one is 'missing out' in some ways. I have decided to take some quiet time out for myself and bubs each week doing an ante natal relaxation and exercise class. That way it truly is just him and me Big hugs to you though...it will happen xo

I don't think you're nuts Frantelle

I didn't feel much emotion, and still don't really for the pregnancy, in fact if anything, I've felt more guilt than any other emotion- guilt that I'm not as excited as maybe I 'should' be, guilt that the aches and pains are annoying, guilt that I'm not enjoying the whole experience, especially considering the difficulty that so many people have in TTC.

Although very excited about the prospect of our little one coming, I haven't felt much difference within myself as I thought I would.

Some things that have helped me were :
1. Finding out what gender we're having- (BOY!)
2. Talking to hubby about our future with bubba
3. Starting to buy things

I know it can be difficult to get excited, especially when/if there has been loss in the past, but just know that any feeling you're having is 'normal' ...that others have shared it, and if you're worried that your feelings are something that needs to be discussed with a professional, that you get the help you need...

In the meantime, congratulations!
