Any Advice?...

Hi ladies, I guess i just need somewhere to have a moment, but anyone who knows any advice I'd be greatful for all your tips!
I'm just feeling so frustrated at the moment I'm 9+5 weeks pregnant and my hormones are everywhere, i even cried at hollyoaks earlier!
I feel up and down all over the place, which is made worse by everything thats going on. I feel awful because right now i don't feel excited by the thought of this baby, just really overwhelmed. My ex and i split and although we cannot even bear to be around each other without rowing and shouting, i'm finding it hard to get over him. It's so frustrating because i know he wants nothing to do with baby and i cannot change that I just wish someone was here to share all this with me. It's like im trapped by my emotions and hormones and i just want to relax but can't

aawwww 's to you sweety. I was in the same situation about 5 years ago. It turned out for the best and we are actually doing ok raising our daughter together, apart... if that makes any sense. It's tough honey, just hang in there and come here for venting or support any time ok!

I also wanted to say, I got less emotionaly in my second trimester and really enjoyed my pregnancy from that time on... I wish the same for you.

its totally normal for you to feel "all over the place" at this early stage, there's so much going on inside you, that your body takes time to adjust. crying at hollyoak is (i'm afraid)one of the those pregnancy & to be honest mother things, that you'll get used to eventually. Hope you can work something out with your ex as its his baby too & he should take some responsibility for the babys life & upbringing & not leave it all to you. hang in there, you'll feed better soon & being a mum will be the best thing you have ever done XX

It is very emotional and lonely being pregnant even when you're in a stable relationship so it must be extra hard for you. Let the emotions out when you feel over-whelmed and don't feel embarressed as loads of other women will sympathise with you. The only consolation I can give about your hurt over your ex is that once your baby is born you will feel the ultimate love and no-one else will be as important as your little one. Good luck and take care. Try and get some rest, being tired makes the tearfulness worse

hope you are feeling perkier soon

Thanks so much everyone

I found shopping helps today which is a definate plus!

Glad you're feeling better - there's nothing like a good shop! Just wanted to add that the emotionalness doesn't necessarily go away - even the cheesiest scene on Hollyoaks is still enough to make me cry seven months after my son was born!

Good old shopping therapy

Did you buy anything nice?

Well i thought i'd risk it and try and get some new maternity summer clothes, although i woke up to a storm this morning..LOL I'm sure the sun is around here somewhere though!
