Thanks so much for yr responses, it's lovely to know that i'm not alone! I'm due in 7wks so don't really have long left. Irony is as much as i'm not enjoying the pregnancy, i don't particularly want it to end as i'm not looking forward to the sleepless nights - my 2yr old stil wakes up in the night!! It's also nice know that I'm also not the only 1 running a toddler. I'm looking 4ward 2 being overwhelmed with al that love you feel 4 some1 u've only just met.
Thanks again

have to say am feeling the same also,
first time aroubd its exciting and full of wonder as you dont know what to expect, this time around its like ok am absolutley fecked cos you have another one to run after so no time to sit and daydream!
However its like lou says we are still going to have that excitment of having another one and watching them grow up together so am kinda looking forward to that, wont be long till they are here anyway so bring it on!

Hey there. I feel exactly the same. I wasn't particularly enthusiastic about my first pregnancy although it was planned. It's just one of those things that some people like and some people don't. Everyone keeps saying how great I look and how it suits me and all I can think about it that I'm exhasuted with my 2+2m toddler running about, that I'm on iron tablets which are horrid, I've got so much to do before baby gets here and my bump is too big to let me do any of it and I just feel like I'd quite happy volunteer for a section if it meant I could get this stage over with. It's terrible I know. But honestly you are not on your own and to be honest we are almost there so whats another few weeks after 8 months!!!
PM me if you want a blether

This is my third

When i was pregnany second time round and this time it has kinda felt like a chore iykwim. I think first time round it's all new and exciting. With a toddler about this time it is more tiring which doesnt help either. I have two boys aged 8 and 3. The 8 year old is self sufficient and is out playing all the time! but the younger one still needs a lot done for him so i am knackered this time round.
Dont worry about sharing your love either - i worried about that too and it was fine - you feel everything second time round that you did first and also the joy you get from seeing your first loving your second and protecting them is lovely.
I cant wait to see the boys with this one

How long do you have left?

Is any1 feeling like iam?! This is my 2nd baby & although i'm well i don't seem 2 be enjoying it as i did with my 1st. I'm also frightened that i might not love my child as much as i love my 1st. Any advice?






1st time for me was completely unplanned and I was very young! I really wanted to savour this PG and enjoy it as my circumstances are so different.
I sailed through symptoms wise last time, just had a couple of bleeds caused by the stress of an A-Hole ex partner. This time I've had a pain in my ribs since 15 weeks, had every symptom you can have and just been generally flippin misserable about being PG sometimes.
I really thought I'd enjoy it this time round
So you're not alone hun, in the beggining I said if it's a girl we'll try for a boy but I aint doing this again!!
