I feel so ungrateful š«
Iām currently 36 weeks & my in laws have tried to be the best help they can be but my sister in law most time says things in a panic way that makes me more anxious. My anxiety has been at its worse throughout my pregnancy, you can imagine how bad any little thing can set it off. When I was 8 weeks I was spotting & she told my boyfriend āyou donāt look sadā & continue basically insinuating how I was gonna lose the baby when at the ER I was told spotting happens to nearly half the women. Today she called me to basically say no one in her family or kids were full term so that my baby can come any day now & trust me I know this, Iāve always had the feeling that Iām not gonna make it to 40 weeks but not that Iām gonna have it within the next days. Next she told me I shouldnāt be driving & she told my boyfriend that too, also at the beginning she had told him that I shouldnāt really be going up & down the stairs (I work in housekeeping) like they treat pregnancy like itās an illness lol I know Iām a newbie since itās my first but I live with my mom, Iāve been guided, I was old enough to remember her last pregnancy plus on top this app & itās members have helped me a ton! I just feel bad because Iād rather not hear her advice since it creates panic in me more than ācalmnessā. & I already get anxious about the thought about going into labor, not because of the pain but because Iām scared to have a panic attack which is why I donāt put mind or talk about it, just kinda wanna go with the flow when that time arrives...
