Terrible thought! Advice anyone?

Question

Hi ladies. I've just reached the second trimester and I had a really horrible thought. All of a sudden I don't want this baby and was wishing I wasn't pregnant! I was over the moon when I got my bfp and so excited at my first scan and now it's changed. I feel so horribly guilty for thinking it. Has anyone else had this? I'm hoping it was just hormones and I'll get over it. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Answer

I had those thoughts this pregnancy, I think it's because of the hormones and all the outdid imput, I have a 3 year old and apartment to finish, and we need to start looking for w house and the waiting that comes with it. It just feels like to much, but I keep on telling myself that it's never a good time and we will make it work.

Answer

Maybe you just need to talk to your doctor, hun. There's tons of emotions, hormones, and changes that your body is going through right now. I know that seems crazy to say, I mean, you're growing a human being inside of you! How awesome is that?! Think of all the wonderful things that are getting ready to happen and see if there's something your doctor can help you with. Good luck and congrats!

Answer

Don't be too hard on yourself. As many people on here have mentioned your body and hormones are in a whirlwind right now so you're probably experiencing all sorts of feelings. I freaked out a little this morning when it hit me that my life is about to change and will never be the same. That's kind of a scary thought! Especially as a first time mom who has no idea what to expect. That's the good thing about having such a supportive community on Glow.

Answer

I haven't had this thought, but I am slightly worried about all the things I need to do before the baby gets here. I'm also worried about being able to care for a baby, when I've never had much experience with this. It can be overwhelming. I wonder if you're feeling or thinking about stuff like this too?? I am sure you'll come back to being happy with having your baby. The fact that you're worried about feeling this way suggests that you're very caring. If you are worried and it doesn't go away, maybe talk with a dr or counsellor about this.
