Overwhelmed

Is anyone else’s anxiety at an all time high (I’m 27+5). I feel myself judging myself for stupid things. Feel like when I get something in my head it needs doing there and then and can’t wait. My partner works nights 4 on 4 off and he’s in the middle of painting the nursery. I don’t want to pester him to get it done because 12 hr night shifts aren’t fun and rightfully so he is sleeping all the time between shifts. I can’t paint it myself because to me the paint smells vile and makes me throw up constantly. I know it is so irrational to need his nursery doing now but I just want to get in there and put his clothes away and all his little bits also so I can keep track of what I still need to buy x Although I’m only near 28 weeks I feel like I’m running out of time my friend had her baby at 31 weeks that’s 3 weeks away.

Hey, I was in the same situation I mean, there were times when a silly thing would be stuck in my mind and won't leave and I used to lie in the bed late night just thinking about that from my personal experience I would say try to do things that you love most , I started to do my skincare and little bit of yoga and that helped me alot to get out of that feeling ( which felt like a hell hole) try to live as if you both were during your lover days gf bf when we were just waiting to see each other if you had your old chat just go through that you will see how far you guys have come (I did that one night ) and suddenly I realised that we were missing joy in our relationship in this race to finish work and do chores etc. And suddenly I felt so light and I could feel my older self back and how much I missed being me .. I hope it helps. As far as having a baby, it's different for everyone. I had my first 39+1 and second, probably 39 xx
