So alone in pregnancy

I’m feeling so alone in my pregnancy.. I don’t talk to my family much especially about anything I’m feeling because it’s always due to relationship struggles and I don’t want or need any judgement from anyone. My partner deals with his own stuff and I’m left to deal with all of this on my own. My thoughts my feelings etc. pregnancy and labour are my worst fear (this is baby number 2, 11 years apart). I’m not asking for any critisism or opinions honestly just feeling so alone in tears typing this now. I don’t really have any friends or anyone I can reach out to and I’m in my own world everyday at home while my daughter is at school so just knowing there are other women out there would mean the world 💔 I feel so heartbroken just from feeling so alone in this.. I feel guilty being so upset because of the stress for the baby but this is really hard for me to go through emotionally.

Hey mama hang in there. We all have our days it's ok to feel those emtions just don't let it control your happiness and take over your mind.

@See it’s so hard. I feel like I have to keep all of my feelings and emotions to myself and my first 20 weeks I have been perfectly fine. Lack of support just sucks. Thankyou so much for your message 🤍 it’s nice to just be seen

I know how you feel . But talking does help. Cos if you don't tell anyone you will end up blowing up or blowing things out of proportions with you mind. Remember that you have a duaghter who looks up to you as well and how you handle yourself influences her. Being a mom is hard but it does make up better humans well at least I think that what's we can try to achieve.

@See I don’t have anyone to talk to about it. That’s the problem I’m running into

I'm not the best at giving advise but I'm open to hearing what going on..

You're welcome to message me if you'd like! I kinda get where your coming from, my partner works all day sometimes till really late at night and I'm alone all day with the animals we have and it can be lonely as hell not having anyone to speak to all day as my friends only speak to me when they want to and my family can be the same sometimes too so I get it's hard and it can be very lonely but it will get better! Sometimes we all need someone who will just listen to us about our day and how we're feeling without necessarily wanting a solution sometimes it's just nice to just chat and get things off your chest. Feel free to message me if you'd like! I'm pregnant with my first xx

Write affirmations down in a journal & therapy helps too mama , you’re very strong

It may feel like you’re in this alone but you’re not. I feel the same way at times like I don’t have anyone to talk to. My friends live far away and my partner is not very supportive so I can’t talk to him about how I feel.

Your hormones and emotions will be so up and down at this time and you often feel like nobody understands. But I bet they do. Most men find it hard to put themselves in your shoes but try it. You might be surprised, tell your partner how you feel and he can support you to feeling better and prepared for when the baby comes. If you don’t communicate, you will only feel worse. Keep busy, take up a new hobby like reading, yoga etc to keep your mind off the things. You got this honey!

@Erica this is word for word how I feel. Pregnancy is such a huge fear for me and I would’ve never had a baby with anyone else.

@Aimée Thankyou I really appreciate your msg 🩷

@Kayla thankyou Thankyou 🤍🤍
