hello everyone, I'm a single mum to be, I am expecting my 1st baby on 2nd march and can't wait. :) x
hiya louise :) thanks for your reply. I am feeling ok been abit off the last few days from the flu jab but getting better now just feel my normal self really other than the really bad heartburn lol. I am separated from the babies dad bacause we was arguing all the time and don't think its very good for the baby so we are better off apart I think. I have got support from my mum and dad just abit fed up of not having anything to get up for as my friends don't bother with me anymore especially since i have been pregnant and I cant gt a job. I will be a lot happier once my son is here :)
Hi gina. Welcome along. Congratulations, and it's a boy! It's great that you have support from your Mum and Dad. It's a shame your friends have drifted, hopefully, once the baby is born, they'll swarm round you to welcome the little fella. Will the father play a part in the baby's life at all do you think?
Hope the heartburn eases.
Hi and welcome from me too gina4848
Oh you have not got too long to go, i hope you find something that eases your heartburn. Are you getting things prepared for your little mans arrival?
What a shame your friends have not been in touch, hopefully you will make alot more new friends, are you attending any antenatal classes? lots of new mums to be make friends and stay in contact through these classes.
Hiya :)
Dont really know what to do when it comes to the dad because i want to give him a chance but am scared of him causing loads of arguments and stress whilst the babys there. He did it when i was first pregnant and thats why i left him, it makes me think if he has no respect for the baby when hes in my belly then what will he be like when the baby is here? hes really bad tempered and argumentative but then again i think he deserves a chance. what do you think? i dont think he would hurt the baby or anything its just with the arguing and he wont accept us not being together.
hiya sally
I keep meaning ask the midwife about antenatal classes to meet new people and that but then will feel stupid if everyone's there with there boyfriends and im just sat there on my own lol. Ive got quite alot of the baby things mainly clothes i just cant resist lol im leaving the main things like cot and pram until last when i get the maternity grant through.
Hi again
There are birth preparation classes and many people go with someone else but that can be the person you want at the birth with you (your mum?) but often there are classes during the day too where just the mum to be will go.
Have a look at the National Childbirth Trust (click) They have groups everywhere especially for new mums, you could join a local one now and get to know people even before your son arrives.
How is the heartburn? Try sitting as upright as possible and if it continues, rather than having three meals a day you might think about having five small ones (so you're not eating too much at once)
Hello Gina4848
