Hi All
I haven't posted for ages as things have been ticking along after much sickness and gastritis troubles. I am now 28 weeks and the last week I have been feeling very down. I don't sleep a full night through as I can't get comfy and need the loo a lot. I went back to work on Monday after 6 weeks hols and just feel so exhausted all the time.
I am frightened of telling my partner exactly how I feel as I can only relate it to similar symptoms of PMS which caused a lot of problems between us before I was pregnant. I cried today and have felt teary for about 3-4 days but held it in. I just think my partner will think "Oh here we go again, I thought all that stopped" and will dislike me. I just don't think he will be sympathetic or understanding as he used to get so fed up when I was due on. And he has been so supportive about everything else in my pregnancy - cooking meals, letting me sleep when I want, shopping/housework etc
I don't know what to do. We have a lot going on - house renovation / decoration which my partner is doing himself, work, there are some emotional family issues too I am trying to deal with. It's all just too much. I am so wanting to give birth and get stuck in and am now worried with all my hormonal problems I had before the birth I am scared the PMS/depression will come back once baby is born.
I am also getting fed up living in a mess at home but know that it is temporary and most of the mess is mine! Still I just don't have the energy to do anythign about it. It's weird, how can I get so annoyed by it but not do anythign about it?
And......my boobs are gettign sore again.. this is making me feel a bit down as they were so sore for 3 months, then they eased (they were very big to start with and have got bigger so it's very uncomfortable but at least they haven't hurt for three months). But now, I have that niggly stabbing pain in my right breast and they ache a bit on the crease under my breasts.
just needed to have a moan and share more than anything but if anyone has any advice it would be welcome.

You shouldnt keep how you're feeling from your partner, if you talk to him about it all I'm sure he will understand its just a part of pregnancy and will be there for you
