Deaf and alone

Karen

I'm feeling anxious. This is my second pregnancy, I had miscarriage 3 years ago and I'm afraid to go through it again. I'm about 9 weeks, adjusting all of my medications and everything to try to have this baby. I'm even more anxious because most doctors keep dismissing my health issues like chronic migraines, hypotension blood pressure, I had 5 surgeries all on my head. I'm also almost completely deaf and I rarely see any posts who I can relate to with deafness and all, which makes me feel like I'm alone on here. I don't mind making new friends, but I also want people to remember that I'm deaf so it's not always that easy for me to maintain friendships. I'm surrounded by my hearing family, but it's not that easy being the only deaf person in the house, plus drama my memaw tries to start with me over nothing to tear me and my mom and my boyfriend apart which is stupid. They know I'm pregnant and trying not to be stressed and all, but it's really hard these days. I just want to talk to people who can relate and assure me I'm not alone in this.
