Anyone else feeling alone?
I’m 36 weeks and I’m feeling more alone than ever. This is my last week of work, my relationship with my husband feels so strained, I’m exhausted, my toddler isn’t sleeping well.
I’m so scared of post partum if I am already feeling so low and alone

Hey Mumma. 36 weeks also here. I’ve sometimes felt like this but I think on reflection it feels worse because we’re in it. Feeling every emotion and the Dad’s nothing has changed for them yet has it. And we probably build up this expectation of what they should be doing but it’s just another day for them. Know in yourself how incredible you are - no way on earth men could do this! I hope you feel better in yourself in the coming days. Not long until we meet our babies x
You’re not alone girl! We’re almost there hun. Try speaking with your hospital and local council for any support or help you can get during this time.

Oh I’m so sorry you are feeling that way. I had felt this way a couple of weeks ago for a few weeks with being diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I feel like my husband wasn’t understanding at all. He just was eager to go to a family reunion while I’m trying to wrap my head around what I can eat and injecting myself with insulin and pricking myself multiple times to check the blood sugar levels. It definitely was a strain on us. I hope it all calms down for you. I understand your fear of Postpartum. I have spoken with my midwife about it and she got me organized with some nurses to visit until little one is 2 so I have a little village for that time to help.
