Guilty Mom
Hello, I’m currently entering the second trimester of my second pregnancy. My son is 2 and this pregnancy was very unplanned..if fact we were actively trying to prevent pregnancy at the time I got pregnant. This time around has been very different. I’ve really struggled with feeling connected to this pregnancy. I am working so much and trying to finish school and be a mother and a wife, so I don’t have time to sit and really process being pregnant. I am worried my ambiguity is going to negatively affect the baby. And I feel guilty for not being as attached to this pregnancy as I was with my first child. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do? I know I will love this child, but I also know I haven’t fully processed it. I feel like I haven’t taken care of myself either - I barely eat, some days I forget to take my prenatals. I’m just already feeling like a bad mom to this second child. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you💛
