David asks…

i feel so low can anyone help make me feel better?

i have a situation and i am getting so down about it all i dont know what to do. A few weeks ago my husband came home really drunk and attacked me, i am 30 weeks pregnant by the way, on the night it happened i had him arrested and had the baby checked at the hospital, obviously i have thrown him out because i dont need that around me right now, ever since that incident i have had the social services involved (because my older daughter is disabled etc), but the real problem is now everytime i have a midwife appointment or consultant appointment all they do is talk about the incident and make me fill out forms about it etc, it seems that everyone is loosing sight of the fact that i am pregnant and would like to discuss my pregnancy at my appointments not about that, i am getting really tired now trying to do it alone and take care of my older child (autistic) i have 10 weeks to go and i am not ready for the babys arrival yet, i dont have another midwife appointment for 6 weeks, and i need to discuss labour etc because i have had a previous c section and i am keen to go natural this time, im really sorry for my rant not really sure what i am asking i am just feeing really run down and underpressure from everything i feel like i am just going to go into labour one day and its going to be chaos because i have no plan etc,
sorry i forgot to add that unfortunatly i dont have any parents myself to turn to for support my husbands family were my main support source

Michelle answers:

Oh Sweetie, I’m so sorry. What a horrible thing to have happened. No wonder you are feeling down.

Okay its been a bad time but now you have other things to think about and a new life to get excited about. I am sure your older child is excited about the new baby.

I’m really glad you had your ‘rant’ online – you deserve a good rant! And it was very controlled too!!!

Here are some ideas you might consider.

Is it possible someone can look after your older child for a weekend so you can have some ‘me’ time?

Its not too late to start planning. Write a labour plan out and have it ready – even if you don’t get a chance to talk to a midwife about it, at least you can give it to them when you go into labour.

Ask family, friends, neighbours if they can be ‘on standby’ to help out with your older child once you go into labour.

When you go to your appointments have a list of things you want to discuss with them….if they ask about the incident say, ‘Oh yes, thanks for your concern, would you mind if I asked my questions first and then I’ll come on to that incident after as in my previous appointments I’ve spent a lot of time talking about that and I completely forget to ask the things I am concerned about.

If you have any close friends or family around you tell them how you are feeling and ask if they can help you get organised. Most women would love the opportunity to fuss over a pregnant mum!! The only reason they don’t is because they don’t want to crowd you…but if you ask for help you give them a licence to fuss!!

I really hope it goes well for you. I think you’re a great mum, doing a great job and a strong woman too…you’re doing great and I think you’re going to be just fine. Hang in there okay…chin up.
