29 weeks here, and it just hit me, as irritating as these new third trimester symptoms are, this is the end of my life as “not a mommy” as I know it.

I can’t help but feel depressed about this. I’ve always valued my sense of freedom and doing what I want when I want to and we all know that is just not something moms can do.

I know the bright side is holding my little baby in my arms.. but that doesn’t change the terrifying feeling of loss of “myself”. Am I horrible for feeling like this ?
