Feeling sad today

I'm feeling so low today and i know i shouldn't be cos i am so lucky to be pregnant.

Sorry ladies i just need to get it off my chest.

Firstly OH went away yesterday with work and is not back until Friday and i hate being on my own and without him. And last night i had a nightmare and my OH wasn't there to make me feel better when i woke up!

Secondly i had a friend from school that i use to be really close too and since she split with her ex boyf we have drifted, i have always been there for her and when she got with her new fella (who was an ex of mine) i was happy for her. She fell pregnant and when the baby was born last year i went to see her and got a present for the baby and i sent them all an xmas card and since then i haven't heard a thing from her.

Anyway i thought i'd best text her and tell her i was pg, and instead of a message back from her saying how lovely it was to hear from me i got a load of s*** from her how i'd not been part of her life.

Surely it takes two to make a friendship and i have always been there for and when someone doesn't make an effort with you then you tend to bother less, even though i haven't seen her i'd always been here for her instead she was saying our friendship was over unless i made more effort, why should it be me always running round after her.
The whole thing has really upset me!!

Then lastly i'm dreading going to work tomorrow, they keep dumping more work on me and i'm snowed under already and under so much pressure, i just don't know how i'm going to get through it all. I constantly get ear ache from my bosses and our customers for not getting things done on time.

Today i can't stop crying, the smallest thing on tv sets me. I feel so stupid crying cos i have my little boy growing inside me and i am so lucky to have him in there.

Sorry for the long rant, i'm even crying as i'm typing this!! Think i need a good shake!! I'm not normally so emotional.

Hope everyone is feeling better than me and everyone is ok. Thank you for listening.

Love

Hey honey.

Just a quick one to say that I hope today has been a better day for you! Of course it takes 2 to make a friendship...just sometimes people get too wrapped up in their own lives and resentments to take a good look around or ackowledge their own behaviour.

Keep your chin up, never apologise for feeling low or having a moan - its what we are here for! Now take a deep breath and smile to yourself, you are having a baby, and you are over half way there!!!! HOORAY, YIPPEE!!!!

Love and hugs.

Ems 13 weeks today!!! xxx (although will prob be put forward or back again at thurs scan!!)

Sounds familiar

Hi Lou,

I can totally relate to your post, on both aspects.

I went through a similar situatiuon with a "friend" who I didn't see for about 6-7 weeks coz we were both off doing our own things. I was always there for her during her breakup and gave her a lot of my time. I had a lot going on in my life at the time, and was preparing for a boob job. Took me a while to recover and couldn't really think about or do much else. Got engaged and didn't get any sort of congrats from her, turns out i was too "in my own little world" to think about her and her breakup (9 months previous) and she never made any effort to keep in touch with me either. Never crossed my mind to fall out over it, as friendship works both ways and it takes 2 (like u said!) but we are not friends any more because of it. Made me really angry as it seemed very one sided and I just thought that if she was upset that we hadn't seen each other in a while we could have talked about it like adults. But hey, some people can just be so unreasonable!! I wasn't pregnant at the time though, but can imagine it would have made it so much worse.

Also, work is the same for me too. 15 weeks pregnant now and can't handle the stress, its giving me headaches all the time. Boss is unhelpful and I just get left to sort everything out. Just can't wait to leave, not coming back!

Its hard not to get emotional isn ... Ur not alone in feeling like this though, not at all. I just feel really down sometimes too, but just keep telling myself it won't be long now and just got to stick it out!!!

Try to keep smiling, u will see ur baby boy soon!

*hugs*

hey,
sorry to hear ur feeling so sad, but i know how u feel i seem to be feeling down more days than not and yet ud think id be happy and lucky to be preggers?!!its weird and totally uncontrolable.anyway im not even going to get into it but theres a combination of things peeving me off was going to post ealier but i dont even know where to start!!!!! and i too am repulsed at the thought of going into work 2mro i really feel like leaving only i need the money its like being totally trapped and i really am struggling!!
anyway hope u feel better soon, im hoping this is just a little phase that will soon pass im not normally this emotional either dont like it too much!!!!its terrible how guilty u feel too for feeling this way when u have a little bubs growing away u feel as tho u should be happy esp 4 their sake but its way too hard!!

big hugs
