12 to 24 week pregnancy thread

Skint_Catt

Thanks for everyone's advice - I'm going to go sick tomorrow & see how I feel, then maybe see the Dr after that. Trouble is I'll get no peace at home which is really what I need to sort out my head as I'm living with my parents & Mom especially likes to fuss.

Thanks Jenjade and waitingforpost for the nappy info. I went to Tesco yesterday and they had their packs of huggies newborns on offer from £6 to £4, so I bought a pack and used my 3 £1 vouchers that I got in the argos packs, so I got the pack for £1. I love a bargain.

Is anyone else feeling really stressed and anxious about everything or is it just me?

I had a really rough night last night in floods of tears feeling scared about everything and anxious about getting a baby at the end of all of this and everything going okay. I'm scared, I feel alone, lonely tho my OH is great I ... I dunno.. I cried myself to sleep last night and I feel I could cry all day today.

Yesterday all stemmed from needing to make a decision whether to do natal hypnothereapy or an hypnobirthing type course with a lady I know - something I feel I need to help me get through labour.

My oh suggested going to the dr and getting some pills, I have a history of depression - is this hormones or something more.

I know stress is bad for the baby.

I expected to wake up this morning and feel quiet but more positive but I'm feeling just as rubbish and crying.

Oh god, I've got so much going around my head.....

Hmm might be a bit of both hormonal and depression - Talk to your midwife about it.

If it helps - im normally a happy bouncy person - OH upset me at the weekend so i threw a cake at him :rotfl:

I know the feeling Glitter - I also have a history of depression and this feels very much like it. I've been so miserable, any decisions are a total trauma and I'm starting to find excuses not to leave the house so no, its not just you hun. Big hugs xxx

Thanks Winnie, it's helpful to know I'm not alone.
Question is what should/can 'we' do about it.....

I think I'm going to talk to my midwife about it at my appointment next week and see what she suggests - I don't really know what else to do tbh. Do you use any particular techniques to cope when you're not pregnant? I usually exercise (to excess probably) but the SPD is preventing that right now.

who had the nuchal translucency scan?

I rang up for my results last week and they said the risk was low:
1 in 810. they said for my age it would be 1 in 750 anyway.

this doesn't seem very low to me when i see other people getting 1 in 000's.

what was everyone elses result?
