pregnant and lonely

I only have a couple of months to go before i am due to have my baby.
I was just wondering if it is normal to feel lonely this late in pregnancy.
I have an almost 3 yr old who is great company....but i still feel lonely and always want hubby.
Thankyou.

Oh,you need a hug. I think we all can totally relate to what you are saying. Is there any groups you can join for Mommy and babe or toddler groups? Your local church group or community center or library are places to start. Good luck and we are always here!!!! :)

Re: pregnant and lonely

Oh...my heart goes out to you! You sound so  lonely! It is hard when no one else you know is pregnant! Hubby seems to be the only one that you want near to you when it gets to the last stint and if he is busy with work it can feel very lonely! If you have no other  family close by it can compund those feelings! I know your beautiful daughter will seem like great company, but it is no substitute for girlfriends or others that just KNOW how you are feeling! If you can get out and meet up with friends, it makes SUCH a difference to how you are feeling. Those feelings are completely normal, but if you are feeling really sad or lonely, don't hesitate to e-mail anyone  on Minti when you need it! Hormones can play havock with anyones normally happy outlook, so don't feel alone or lonely, there are lots of us that know exactly what you are feeling!

Sweetie, what women doesn't feel like that?  If you are really feeling that down, then Minti mail someone, me if you like, just so you can have some support.  Pregnancy and the aftermath, are stressful times.  You need to understand that your body is in hyperdrive and this means your feelings and emotions too.

Make sure you talk to your doctor about the way you are feeling too and for goodness sakes, resist the urge to go nuts with the cleaning!  You need to rest up before that bundle comes along.

AAWWWW you need some extra TLC , it is very normal to feel a bit sooky LOL  Just make sure you are not getting too depressed and also take some time to read up on PND(post natal depression) Only as a safety measure I am by no means suggesting you are going to get it. I would just like to make sure you are fore-armed.

Good Luck

Re: pregnant and lonely
Yes is perfectly normal! Your hormones are doing some wonderful things inside you, but have a tendancy to affect your emotions. I had this sometimes with both my kids. If hubby works, is their anyone you can go out and see to try and curb your loniless a little? Maybe even treat yourself to a couple of hours of window shopping, just walking around at your own pace? Children are good for company, but you may find that sitting down for a cuppa and chatting with another adult may just do the trick during those moments. Hope this helps.
