Can’t sleep and feeling down

Feeling pretty miserable and struggling to sleep because I’m worrying and uncomfortable 😔

It was meant to be my baby shower this weekend but due to lockdown it was cancelled. Feeling very disappointed because havent received a single gift from my registry and not many of my family or friends have even called or text to see how I was feeling this weekend. I’ve had people say why didn’t I do a virtual shower but I feel a bit disappointed that my husband, none of my family and friends planned one for me, especially since I’ve not been feeling great mentally and physically to be able to plan one properly.

I’m slightly mad at myself for being disappointed with them as I recognise the different ways they show me they love me. I guess a part of me just wished they had considered me more during this time because if anyone of them were in my position I’d have done it for them. I wish they had at least thought to send me a kind message to put a smile on my face on the day I was meant to have my shower.

Baby is due in 30 days and it’s probably my hormones playing games with me, because I understand it’s such an unusual time for everyone so I don’t expect to be the most important thing in people’s life atm. I’m just worried I’m not prepared for the arrival of baby and I won’t have the support I need despite family and friends saying they’re there for me, doesn’t always feel like it, feels like I have to remind them to support me 😔

If there are any other moms feeling this way, feel free to share your registry on this post so we can support each other 👯‍♀️
