Anyone else starting to resent their baby?
Don’t get me wrong I love her more than anything but I have just hated the whole pregnancy thing and now that we’re down to the last few weeks I just feel bad for being angry at her for still being in there. I know it’s too early and she has to keep cooking but I just want the aches and pains and exhaustion to stop.

I think maybe you should talk to your midwife about these feelings, it may be that you're struggling with a bit of perinatal depression x
I feel the same. I spoke to my mental health team (BABS) who I'm already under. As I'm struggling with any connection atm with her

I am ready for her to be born but know she needs a little longer. I am frustrated with the aches and pains and anxiety. I have 5 weeks left. I believe my body has coped surprisingly well given I have a chronic illness (which has been surprisingly well behaved). Keep talking about your frustrations with people, it is OK to not feel like pregnancy has been good. It doesn't mean you love baby any less. Remember everyone is different.
