general anxiety
Hi everyone. This is my first post on here. I'm 31 (almost 32) and my husband and I are TTC. We really haven't been trying that long, maybe a few months. It seems like the time of the month keeps getting inconvenienced by other things. For example, this month I have to travel back home for a cousin's wedding, which happens to fall right on my 5 yr wedding anniversary and my expected ovulation. 😩 We of course are expected to stay at my parent's house where the beds are so small my husband has to sleep in the basement. On top of all this, I feel a lot of anxiety from my family. My sister in law is of the opinion we are way too old to have kids and she is starting to influence my husband. my mom is starting to talk about grandchildren lately but has made the comment in the past about how any children I have would "break her heart" bc she lives so far away. Lastly, I have general anxiety about the pregnancy itself. I'm a fifth generation fraternal twin (we can't trace any further back.) I feel a lot of pressure to have twins, and to be honest that us what I prefer. My husband has also made it clear that he prefers boys. Unfortunately there is not much I can do to ensure that twins or boys will happen. I am also a bit overweight and feel nervous that it could jeopardize any pregnancy I have. Any kind words would be appreciated.
