Health
Renovating and pregnant
Moxhii234
Hi everyone,
I'm currently 28 weeks and 3 days pregnant. The baby is very much wanted, and we're really counting down the days. But lately, I've been so stressed. We're still renovating our house (it's been going on for over 2 years now), and although it's almost finished, it's driving me crazy!! It feels like it's taking forever. Especially with our little girl coming. The place we live in now is way too small. The nursery and everything are already ready in the house we're renovating. We're just waiting for the bath to be installed and the water to be connected. For weeks, I've been doing nothing but thinking about the house. It's stressing me out so much that it's causing fights with my husband every day. He's really fed up with me overreacting.
Things at work aren't great either. I work in healthcare in the Netherlands, so I'm working until 34 weeks, which is really tough with the pregnancy. They probably won't extend my contract at the end of June, which is adding even more stress.
I feel like such a different person since I got pregnant. I don't feel emotionally or mentally okay, and I really don't know where to turn with everything. Right now, I feel like I'm going through this alone. Hopefully, other pregnant women can relate and cheer me up a bit because I really think this isn't good for our little girl.
