Feeling Frustrated and Down

Hi Group,

This is my first baby and I’m 5 weeks in. While I’m blessed to have made it this far, especially after a long time of trying, I find that I’m frustrated and sad about a lot of the process.

We didn’t expect to get pregnant this month, we actually took the month off because it’s been stressful. In the interim, my husbands work offered us an all inclusive vacation to an island resort. No sooner did we accept, did we get the news that I’m pregnant.

While I’m unbelievably grateful that I finally am pregnant, I’m also super frustrated that I am going to miss out on the vacation. ( it is a Zika risk country) Furthermore, it’s too early to tell anyone so now I have to lie about why we aren’t going and I’m so overwhelmed.

Just looking for some comfort from anyone who might have experienced missing out on events and can offer advice.
