Feeling sad and a bit overwhelmed. I had lunch with one of my dearest family members, who I hoped would be my pregnancy confidante (she works with toddlers and adores children.)... The trouble is, she has had several high risk pregnancies and a stillbirth 2-3 years ago. It breaks my heart to hear her retell her birth stories. She also confided that she has become anxious about her friends' and family members' pregnancies, including mine. I left that meeting feeling so sad and worried about what lies ahead for me and my baby. I need help to banish the fear from my mind. I feel isolated because I don't have many women in my life who have the time to listen and be supportive. I really crave that right now.
