BIG HUGS Mummy! I can only imagine what your stress is like. Women tend to think with their hearts, but it's times like these we need to think with our minds as well. Try and eliminate what you can't afford. Some things to think about: * is the father going to be an involved father if you choose to go ahead with a marriage? * would you get the physical/mental support of both families when you marry? * could you bear the burden if your baby is born with HIV, or any other STDs? * have you sought out other options/opinions with your gynae? Your health is just as important. Please take care. HUGS!
Hi mummy, I can really understand what you are going through as I had depression during pregnancy too. I felt guilty about it affecting my baby too. Whatever has happened has happened, and we can do nothing about it now. Please try to think positively from now on...and make sure that you have plenty of sleep, and good nutrition. These factors affect our mental health too. Listen to music and do things you like...spend time with friends, try to distract yourself from these negative thoughts, and keep yourself so busy that you won't have time for them. Take care!
jiayou mommy!!! i also have std given by my husband.. do you mind sharing with me your pregnancy journey and if the baby is okay due to the std? im also very stressed. afraid may get depression as im constantly worried that somethinf will happen to my baby. im not even past first trimester yet :( will rly hope to hear from u! n jiayou! baby will be out soon, everything will be ok
Hi dear, I'm so sorry to hear that! Have you get yourself checked? I got gonorrhea and faintly positive on Hiv when I'm at my 8 weeks. Luckily I done all the test at dsc and it was cleared and treated. Hiv turns out to be negative as well. I'm constantly worried about both baby and my relationship with my husband. The constant feeling of him cheating again and having unprotected sex with others and passing it to baby and me. It's really hard to not think about and be in Zen mood for 24/7 however what I try to do is to keep myself busy and talk to someone netrual. You can search for helpline online to just talk to someone about it and it really feels better. I'm at my 34 weeks already and one thing I were to advise others is emotions and stress really does affect baby and I'm very guilty about it. Try eating food that makes you happy as well, like for me is chocolate and ice-cream. (in moderate of cos) Let me know if there's anything you would like me to share with you :)
6 more weeks for baby coming to the world. Try think of the brighter side, if you think u need to talk, talk it to your closer and truthful ones. Don't do or think of doing silly things since you made the right choice to give birth although it hard. take care strongest and brave mommy saving a life
Thank you very much!!
Dear Mummy! Big hugs to you. Please do not let any negative thoughts to affect your life now. Everyone have their black past but what happens happened. Stay cheerful and look forward to your newborn! Things will get better. You can do it!
Thank you very much :))
That's a huge step you've decided to take, kudos to you mummy in deciding to forgive your hubby and move on. And at least you acknowledge how you're feeling, and that's a start. Take care! you're doing well
Thank you very much!
