Pregnancy Support Group

forgot to tell you this is my first pregnancy.

pregnancy makes everyone weird!

i have my hubby and a couple friends and some family that care (this is my third)

My mom has always not really seemed to care at all.. and actually refused to even admit i was pregnant until this last time. It is so weird...

some people act like nothing has changed, some get mean, and some spoil you.

you aren't alone in this.

what drives me crazy is they know what i have been though to get here, i have been tring for aleast 6yrs to get pregnant, and still nothing. oh well what can i expect im not special.

forget about them!!

this is your happiness.. so be happy for yourself. They can all suck an egg.

pregnancy is similar to a marriage.. you end up learning who your true friends are.

I am totally alone here.. well.. my husband is with me so not totally alone.. but we have to live with his sister right now.. and she could care less..things have not changed for us.. she still tries to stress me out.. spoiled.. no way that sounds lovely though. this is our first pregnancy as well.. we live in a different country than my family, and if i were there i know that there would be spoiling. my parents are so happy about this pregnancy that they would be really spoiling me.. so i miss it.. even my best friend who i can only talk to online doesnt have time for me now that i am pregnant.. no.. you are totally not alone in this.. and all i read in the books is how it is a time for being spoiled by everyone.. wow.. sounds awesome though! I agree with MKAT.. i am letting go of all the negativity.. well trying.. and just enjoy..it is afterall about you, your partner and your baby.. no one else really matters anyway.. love it.. for yourself. enjoy it for yourself. they will all eventually see what its like when someone doesnt care about them.. Karma is a lovely thing.. hey.. and you have us!! lol

I have been going through the same thing as you with a few of my family members as well. My brother's GF is preggers too, and it just seems everyone is more worried about her then me.....HELLO I"M YOUR "REAL" FAMILY HERE!!. I might sound like a spoiled brat, but i went through some real tough sh*t with this pregnancy, and she is just sailing along with hers.....well lets not forget to mention here that the baby may not even be my brothers........yeah I said it!!!! these are both second pregnancies, and it just seems everyone can care less for me. I find out the sex of my child next saturday, the same day as her baby shower, well do you think anyone remembered......nope too worried about the shower. aaahhh oh well I had to vent too! LOL But I say screw them all my husband and I are happy and that I we need!!!! sorry this was so long LOL

Oh the lonely pregnant. I sometimes sit here and cry cause I feel lonely especially when only 12 people came to my baby shower out of 35....that was rough. Sometimes I feel like I could have 50 people around me and still feel lonely sometimes. I personally really am not lonely though...I just have moments. Im very independant and thankfully dont feel like I need other people...I havnt always been like that though. Once the baby comes you will have someone who really cares about you. My daughter is my best friend and if im down always makes me smile. As long as your hubby is around and cares...screw everyone else. You also have all of us pregant ladies to talk to!!!!!! Oh yeah just a thought too...when no one came to my shower my honey made me feel better by telling me he didnt care so why should I but you know what I think I was actually more embarassed then feeling sad. Sometimes its an emabarassing feeling when no one else seems to care about you but then I realize I have my own immediate family and thats all that matters.

Im sorry you feel lonely!! My brothers girlfriend and i are pregnant at the same time and i feel like i get more attention etc than her ... but she only had her other one last year and this is my first .. but she has expressed that she feels as youre describing here . How is your partner dealing with it ?

I would recommend joiing a group of women who are pregnant, whether it be in a new parent class or a prenatal yoga class, something. You will find women who are going thru what you are and they are so happy for each other. You deserve to be spoiled especially after the time you put in! If your current friends aren't doing it, go make new ones!
