Baby #2 Blues?
Posted: 10-31-04 23:58pm

I'm growing baby # 2. But it seems like i'm not as excited this time. Sometimes I think, "i don't want this, I can't do this, what was I thinking?" I know I will love the baby, but it doesn't feel as special. I forget to record all the pregnancy diary stuff and i'm just getting used to the fact that I am pregnant (6 months). I don't even necessarily want to discuss it constantly like the first one. Sometimes it feels like a pain in the ass. Don't get me wrong, I have moments where i'm really excited and tuned in, but I have these lingering thoughts. So, is that a normal 2nd pregnancy thing or should I mention this to my doctor?

Sounds like mood swings, which I believe, but, I am no dr, but most women have them, every pregnancy is different, hormones get in our way sometimes but let your Dr. Know anyway.
Sincerely,

Baby #2 was a total shock and I was crying (ugly cry) at the doctors office when I found out. My daughter is now 8 mos., 20 mos. Younger than my first Shocked ,and I still am not 'in tune'. I just try to remember there are people that can't have children. I would feel a lot worse in that situation. And babies are a blessing!
