I remember having similar fears when I was pregnant.
I remember worrying and having sleepless nights.
If I am honest, I hated being pregnant.
I felt emotional, angry, all over the place.
Some women glow, love every minute and look great.
I felt ill and tired and grumpy right up until the end.
There is nothing that can really prepare you for becoming a mum.
It is hard, but really rewarding and things do fall into place.
I don't think being a mum is something you can learn how to be good at.
It just happens.
You don't HAVE to be happy all the time either.
You are allowed to feel scared, fed up or down.
To me thats normal.
But if its all really bleak, all the time, it might be worth a visit to your GP.
Have you talked to your mid wife and told her you are feeling down?
Are you having regular health checks?
I was very anaemic when I was pregnant and that made me extra tired and worn out and things were a struggle.
Do you have friends and family nearby you can confide in?
Do you have any other pregnant friends you could share your concerns with?
