I am pregnant - no idea how far gone yet - with my second child and I feel awful! I had resigned myself to thinking I was not going to get pregnant again some months back and accepted and moved on and actually realised one was enough - have two and a bit yr old son. Shock discovery that expecting again. First pregnant some years back ended with termination due to anxiety. My son very much planned and wanted. But life so busy and just about managing now with work and son and marriage and a few hobbies and now feel utterly overwhelmed and gripped by terror not excitement. Dr was adamant I see psychiatrist as was under one but I am just a bit in shock. I know I will get used to the idea but was wondering if anyone else has felt this ambivalent? Quite guilty as was ov the moon about little boy three years ago.
