Everyone around me is so happy and im just feeling blank, sometimes even low. I feel guilty na that im not excited like other moms. Is this normal or something wrong with me?
It's totally normal to feel overwhelmed rather than excited. Pregnancy changes your entire life and career, so give yourself space to process this major transition without judging yourself.
Hey, don't stress too much about not feeling that 'magical' excitement right away! Your hormones are doing crazy things right now, so just take rest and let the feelings come naturally whenever they do.
Even after fighting PCOS for years to get pregnant, I felt completely blank and numb when it finally happened. It takes time for the emotions to catch up, so please don't feel guilty about your feelings.
Honestly, with the rising costs and endless things to plan, it's very practical to feel stressed rather than excited. Try focusing on small daily routines and take it one step at a time, the bond will grow slowly.
Listen, pregnancy is hard work and not a movie where you are happy all the time. You are probably just exhausted from all the physical changes, so stop putting pressure on yourself to feel a certain way.
