thats awful your going through such a bad time and feeling so low when you should be so excited and happy. do your doctors know your feeling so low? surely all that stress must be worse for the baby than delivering early. sorry i cant really help just wanted you know im thinking of you..

Hi there, my name is Trudy and I work here on the Careline at Cow & Gate. It sounds like you have had a lot to cope with during your pregnancy and it is understandable that you are feeling low.. I'm sure the hospital will want you to keep them informed as to how you are doing and it is also important to let them or your midwife know how all of this is making you feel (they are there to support you). If you don't feel able to share your feelings with them, maybe have a talk with a trusted friend or family memeber. We would be more than happy to have a chat with you, so please feel free to give us a call on freephone 0800 977 4000 (lines are open 24/7), or chat to us online via our live chat facility. Take care, Trudy

You poor thing you really are going through it! just think its not for long these moods will pass and symptoms will come and go.
i know how you feel but you need to speak to someone even if its a friend/family or on here.
thinking of you xxx
