hugely freaking out

[BumbleTumble]

hello everyone.
again, really dont know if this is the right place for my neurotic rant but here i go:

i will be making a gp appointment first thing tomorrow, wait, later this morning and i am pooing myself, or words to that effect.

sooo many worries and insecurities.

will it turn out negative? (major worry)
how am i going to tell my family/care-coordinator?
am i ready?
will i be a good mum?
will i be able to cope?
will they try and take the baby away from me when he/she is born?
will they make me leave the theraputic community im living at right now?
where will they put me if i have to leave?
what if i dont try hard enough?
what if my mental health issues get in the way?
will i be judged because i dont know who the father is?
what if i dont do the right things?

i kind of know im being a bit neurotic here. im just so scared.

thanks for reading anyway, i will be quiet now!

Hun please try not to worry. If you are under the care of your local authority they will do everything they can to ensure you and baby are safe and happy. The priority these days is to keep mum and baby together unless that really is impossible. You have a good support system behind you already and they will do what they can to help you.
No-one will judge you for not knowing who the father is, that happens all the time. They may decide that you need better housing or extra room but they won't abandon you

Try not to stress out too much hunny xxxxxxxx

ok, had my appointment. no doubt i am pregnant!
my gp is referring me to a specialist mental health team for pregnant women (which i didnt even know existed!)
got to go for an early scan soon to find out exactly how far along i am.

Yey!!! Thats good news hun. When do you go for a scan xx

 

[kedi376]

Yay you're pregnant!! Try not to panic, things have a way of working themselves out. Try and enjoy your pregnancy xx

 

[BabyBrain]

The specialist teams are amazing. Pregnancy is enough of a roller coaster on it's own without anything else going on.
Try to relax, you'll be in the best hands and enjoy your pregnancy hunny xxxxxxxxx

thanks everyone

the gp will call so i can pick up the appointment card thing for my early scan, dont know when it is yet.
luckily, the gp surgery is only on the next road!

he has booked me in for an appointment with him in 2 weeks, i think just to check how things are going, but im not sure.
i have just had a chat with one of the therapists here, who is in her 3rd trimester, which was quite helpful.
also going to go on a smoking cessation thing, because im struggling with stopping, i really want to stop, but im finding it hard, i want to do everything right.

im happier than i have been in a long time

You will get all the support you need I am sure, failing that come and see us neurotic people and we can always lend a shoulder

congratulations! with the smoking thing you may find that in the next week or so it will make feel unwell! this is what has happened with me both times which is how i am able to give it up!!!

 

[nikki8092]

So glad you are happy and feeling positive about everything hun! Im sure you will be able to stop smoking as you sound pretty determined xx

 

[BumbleTumble]

i want to do everything right!

smoking is already making me feel unwell! the trouble is, there are a few people here who are really inconsiderate and smoke inside the house, i dont really want to be inhaling that all the time.
im going to tell the community in the group tomorrow, hopefully they will be a bit more understanding!!!!

Awww, congratulations hun!!!! I can relate to you freaking out, and I'm the first to put my hands up and say I did too! I have had all your fears and then some (still have loads by the way), but I'm positive that with help we will get through it! xxx

Good luck hun!!!! xxx
