I am so unbelievably frustrated. The father of our child has not been able to attend any of the appointments because of COVID procedures and I am so upset. We were told that there was a good chance he would be able to come to the upcoming 20wk appointment and now they are saying we’re just going to have to FaceTime. It isn’t the same. Hospitals, doctors, etc make me

so uncomfortable and anxious and now on top I am pregnant for the first time and he can’t even be there. FaceTime isn’t the same as being there. Texts and pictures are not the same as seeing in person. It makes being pregnant feel that much more isolated and difficult.
