A lot has changed since my last post. I am now married to Brandon. I'm 29 weeks pregnant.
A lot has not changed as well... I'm still a miserable person.

I love Brandon so much... but I never wanted kids. This was an unintended pregnancy on my part, not so much on Brandon's. He wants 8+ children.

For the first 3 months, I couldn't hide my feelings about the pregnancy-- it was pretty obvious that I never meant for this to happen.

Well, I manned up somewhere around the 3rd month and have everyone-- even Brandon fooled-- that I've just changed my mind and am excited about this baby girl we're expecting.

I'm not excited. I still don't want kids. Too late huh.

I'm crying my eyes out right now because I just googled, curiously, to see if anyone else as far along in their pregnancies are as resentful as I am... and NOTHING came up. I swear to God... I just want to die sometimes.

So I will just have to go along... pretending to get excited about baby clothes and painting the nursery... while at the same time wishing I could still give her up for adoption. I don't want this. I never wanted this.

I took the MORNING AFTER PILL 13 hours after the incident that conceived her happened. What good that did.... Brandon found out about that and was pissed... but he's done with school, it's my body, and I still had things I wanted to do.... flash forward 2 weeks and there was the first positive pregnancy test. I lost my mind. While he was jumping for joy, I was a crumpled ball on the floor crying. I don't know why I'm writing this. I need to get it off of my chest, I guess.

    I am no doctor but the morning after pill might have effect on fetal development. Tell your doc and do all the necessary tests. If something is found not right your doctor will recommend the necessary. Think about what your unhappiness is doing to you and how it will affect your relationship. Can either one of you be a good single parent if push turns to shove. All said, my wife and I did not want kids but we are now proud parents of a 21 year old son and a 19 year old daughter. Then again we were both happy to accept the gifts when they were conceived and this might be different with you. Hope this little bit helps you.

    Told the Dr. He said it's 100% okay-- won't affect anything.

    Lady doctor? Men as OBs can be pigs. If a second ( lady doc) says the same, then you only have your own feelings to deal with.....docs will tell you that it is normal to feel blue and paranoid with the oncoming changes to your whole life... I 'll say bullshit to that. Nobody, not even your husband will know what you are going thru. Good thing your hubby is there and happy with you being pregnant. It will be doubly bad if both of you are paranoid. If you cannot take destiny in your own two hands ( and ultimately may take chance of being a single person again)...now is the time to negotiate with your hubby. Tell him what you expect of him during this pregnancy and also post-natally. By the way, these comments are only my two cents. They are frank thoughts of somebody, somewhere who don't know you are, hence it is biased or somewhat skewed. The right thing is that you wondered out loud into this space and there is response.

    About the pill, my Dr. Says it's okay. My doctor does not know about my contrary feelings. The only people, to my knowledge, who know how I'm feeling about this are the people who have read this blog and me.  I've told Brandon that I expect equal caring for this child, but other than that-- he was really worried about both me and our child when, for the first 3 months, I was a mess. So for both of our sakes, I covered it up and played happy for him too.

    I remember when i found out i was pregnant with my first child, i did not want it...i  just cried, thought of every option there was, but in the end i decided to keep him. ....and you know what... the first time i looked at him and held him in my arms, i loved him more than i ever thought i would, and never have never regreted having him...i can't imagine my life without him. You may not think you'll feel that way right now, but your love  and want for your baby will kick in the second you lay eyes on her....just hang in there  it will all be ok :)

    hugs~alls

    Yup, demand from your husband what you emotionally need and tell him your hormones can make you cranky and he has to put up with it (hopefully till child's 23yrs old). Stay on this space if you need to shout somethings out and there will be us who hear you out. BTW I had morning sickness when wife was pregnant with my son. Her doc says not too uncommon. Take care :-)
