Tired all the time 👎

Another week completed. It feels like life is moving by so fast at the moment, I can’t quite keep up with everything I need (and want) to do.

I don’t know if there’s something wrong with me, or if I’m just losing the plot 😂

I have another baby shower to go to on Saturday. Im currently coming off my sertraline in preparation for conception and my behaviour has been a bit erratic. I may have to excuse myself during the party for a quick respite. It’s tough being in such an environment at the moment, celebrating a baby knowing you may never have one yourself.

If I were to become pregnant, I don’t think I’d have a baby shower… I don’t think I’d tell anyone I was pregnant until the baby was born. I don’t want to put someone else through that, and I don’t want to celebrate someone who isn’t yet here… there’s a lot of risk for someone like me and I’d rather no one knew about the baby until it was safely born.

I completely understand. I too am trying to have a baby. We have been trying for years and nothing. It is very hard watching friends and family having what you soo desperately want. Our time will come. Don't give up hope.

Bit late to advise you about the baby shower! But I’d say be kind to yourself, don’t feel you have to keep all these commitments if you are finding it too hard. Don’t guilt trip yourself and don’t let anyone else. Especially important to put your needs first while you are coming off your meds.

Wishing you well for the future x
