Pandemic pregnancy

Kaira

Please be honest as you respond to this post. Is anybody else feeling extremely BLAH during their pregnancy? Like you are excited about your new baby and all that comes with it. .But I feel like during this pandemic,BLM(I am African American), I am also an elementary art teacher and I have a son that is two. Yes I am happily married and he helps a lot! I wouldn’t have made it this far without him. However, I feel trapped within a house,trapped within my own body because I get little to no comfortable sleep. Plus, I have a hard time wanting to put on “real clothes” unless I am going to the store, to my moms house, or on a google meet for work. I don’t feel depressed I just feel overwhelmed and a little trapped . . My baby girl is due at the beginning of the school year so I will be out of work , I have no idea if What the new school year holds or how to prepare for my absence, I still have modules to work on during the summer for work, her nursery, trying to organize things in my house to make it easier to function when she is born, I am afraid of what this pandemic will look like in September . .I am fearful for the safety of my black husband and son,now daughter on the way. Plus I never expected so many what ifs or crazy circumstances during this pregnancy. .Am I the only one feeling this way???Any advise on how to be motivated in the midst of all these feelings and emotions???
