I'm already a mum of one, he's 5 years old, we live together and I'm expecting my second child - a daughter - in October with my partner who lives nearby and has two older children aged 12 and 14 (they live with mum).
I have post traumatic stress disorder and have problems with anxiety and with pregnancy fuelling it all the more it's becoming difficult to remain positive!
I've started experiencing difficulty leaving home other than to do certain thing like nip to the shop at the bottom of the road, take my son to school (not even that now - it's the holidays, yay!) or go to the hospital and straight back - It feels rather pathetic really =(
have tried talking to my other half about alsorts in the couple of years we have been together and he is trying in his own way but I feel small, useless, stupid and embarraced by everything I want to talk to him about, pregnancy seems to be helping the resurfacing of some old demons too which has been really hard.
Terrified about the birth, getting support and understanding from my partner, being able to cope emotionally, oh yeah and we're looking for a new house to move into aswel....why not??!
Feeling lost, dazed and confused....
Is this normal??
