This is my first post on the forum - am hoping there are some other ladies feeling how I am at the moment.... I am 30 weeks pregnant with my second child. My son has just turned 18 months old, and I feel like the terrible twos have come early...
We found out that we were having a girl in our 20 week scan - and since then I just have not been able to feel excited about our baby coming. I feel like the most horrible mother in the world - guilty that there are so many other women out there who cannot have babies. I don't know if it's looming Xmas stress, or what it is - I have no motivation to do anything and knowing that the due date is coming closer and closer, I am getting so frightened that I don't want her to come just yet.
your not crazy honey. Maybe you could have a chat to your GP/ midwife? They would be able to organise someone for you to speak to, otherwise I'm sure there are some other beautiful women on here who have felt similar.
Are you feeling this way because your having a girl or did it just set in around the same time as your ultrasound? If it's the former there is also a "gender disappointment" section here on Bellybelly, it is a very real and valid feeling, you are not alone and talking to others experiencing the same feelings can be very helpful.
Welcome to Bellybelly, there are lots of wonderful women (and a few men) here, hope to see you around.
i don't think you sound crazy at all. i agree with heva&zacky - i think you should let your GP/midwife know...it is possible to get depression whilst still PG so could be worth making sure it is just the craziness of christmas that's getting you down
and welcome to BB! i hope you find lots of support, information & fun
