i just found out i am pregnant, i should be feeling happy but im not. currently i have a 16month old boy, intended to have a second one end of next year. reason being i haven have enough time for myself n my boy for the past 16 months dur to my heavy work commitment. i have just quit my job hoping to have more time for my boy, also some time for myself. Also i was hoping tat after i resign i can persuade my hub to ask my mil to return to her own house to stay as i can look after my own kid. Was having alot of issues staying with my mil and because she is looking after my kid i have to tolerate. now with my pregnancy all my plans will be jeopardized. if my mil learnt i am preggy all the more she will not move back... now even if i have the time to spent with my boy i can no longer baby carry him... all these thoughts made me feel upset. am i abnormal to feel my lo came at the wrong time? i seriously dont wish to b preggy now. how can i adjust my feelings...

Hi, actually when your tummy gets bigger, you might be Glad ur MIL is around to help. Actually I'm abit like you... quit job to look after my first and I'm currently pregnant with 2nd (but I quit because I wanted a break from work and to have more opportunities to hands on with my 2nd since I was a working Mom with my first and I didn't have opportunity to witness his first year milestones). I wanted to do it all on my own, ask my mom to come less but just 2 days and I couldn't take it.. my down there start to become painful... cos I had to keep disciplining my Son / carry him... in e end I revert back to original arrangement of my Mom coming to my house by 10am every morning. Maybe u can ask MIL to return home to stay (ask hubby to ask her) but say she can come over Everyday by a certain time to help out??? Don't regret being pregnant with 2nd just for the first. BOTH are ur kids!!!!
