@Gemma honestly I think I needed to hear another mum say all this because I started to think there was something wrong with me all of a sudden! I just want to give him the best life.. i don’t think feeling so exhausted now helps with these thoughts either does it like I’m just ready to not be pregnant now I’d like to breathe properly again x
I've been feeling really teary the last week or two and having a few 'ahhhh why am I just making our lives harder' 🫣 moments but I think totally normal! I always remind myself if you're the one asking if you're good enough or how you can be better then you're already a good parent because you already care so much x
I’m 31 weeks and been feeling like this and started getting really anxious too. I don’t think you’re alone here. Quite frankly this was such a refreshing post to see because I was starting to think it was only me. Just want to be a great mum and wife and worry all the time I won’t be. Keep going and just do your best xx
@Zoe @Hannah I’m glad it’s not just me then girls.. I’m glad I done this post now because as much as being pregnant is a blessing which I’ll never take for granted I think it should be more spoken about the struggles not just physically but mentally at times. Hope you’re both okay xx
Coming up to 30 weeks with our third baby and I definitely have moments like this. I have a 3 year old and a 2 year old and their incredible, like the best kids I could ever imagine so rationally I know we can do it but of course there’s that little voice saying what the hell are you doing. It’s the practical fears as well though like how are we going to work out bedrooms, financially will we be okay because life just keeps getting more and more expensive, will my 2 year old feel left out because he’s very much my baby still whereas my 3 year old can’t wait to have another baby in the house, how will my marriage be after another newborn season and 1000 other worries that are probably ridiculous but don’t feel ridiculous in the moment. It’s really normal and from my experience good Mums are the ones that worry, parents that don’t care generally aren’t worried. You will be incredible and the most important thing is you’re starting from a place of love and that means the most! 🤍
