You shouldnt feel bad....that is a very normal feeling cuz i felt that way when i had my other kids.....You probably feel that way because you feel your takin attention from the chld/children you have now.....But eventually that feelling will go away....

The thing that worries me the most about being pregnant again is if i have anymore complications im really not going to be able to take it if something happen to me because im having this baby its a risk and i know that but i allready have a sweet 2yr old and i dont want to miss anything about her!!!!!

i wan't happy at all when i found out i was going to have my 2nd, i thought i was done for sure, didn't wat anymore, but all i can tell u is it was the best thing i ever did, i see my 2 together and the bond they have, i couldn't imagin life without her now. i guess i;m saying it will be hard for a while but when their in your arms u will know it as righ. i then had my tubes tied to be sure i didn't have anymore, not for everyone but it was the right thing for me!

Remember GOD never gives us more than we can handle. It will all work itself out in the end. Drop that zero babygirl and set your life goal on taking care of you and your children, men will come and they will go. But dont beat yourself up about it. we've all been down that "Maybe this time will be better"road. Your focus now is your health, your sanity, and your babies. Keep your head up, you're gonna been alright. I promise

It's human nature no matter wut anybody say that u will feel bad for not being happy about ur pregnancy but that does not make u a bad person are a bad mother. Just look at yr two yr old and how much u LUV her & kno she is an angel sent from god rite along with the bun in the oven!! Stress and circumstances can get the best of us sometimes but keep ur chin up & don't beat ur self up over ur uncontrollable emotions & kno wut evea u decide to do or ~R~ going through there's someone out there going thro the same thing!

I ama single momof two boys. They are 16 months and 2 months old. I was not happy being pregnant with my second one. I was stressed out, exhausted, and depressed. Both my son's father chooses not to be in the picture. I can understand where you are coming from, but if you choose to go through with it all I can tell you is things WILL get better. Find ways to relax and unwind. I know it's hard to connect with this pregnancy being you spend so much time, effort, and love on your daughter, it was for me and still is. But be strong and hang in there, we are all here for you to give you support. God bless you and I wish you the best of luck. :)

well for your health - if this pregnancy is putting that at risk you have to take that into consideration.
Stress - my childs father now is stressing but i just tuned him out and did what had to do for the health of myself and baby right now. these men sometimes don't understand or chose not to but you have to do what is best yourself child and most importantly health. you need to explain that to him and try to discuss it.i raised my 15 yr old on my own with out his stress and now i have a newborn with a new fella and he stressed me out with all his antics. i cut his ass off and kept it moving. he damn sure wasn't gonnamake me lose this child and my health and sanity....

If your not physically or emotionally prepared to have a 2nd child then you shuldn't. I'm not pro-abortion but i am pro-choice and no one is going to help you 24/7 so it's ultimately up to you and your significant other. If you physically shouldn't have a child and it is a risk to your health you may be putting your children at risk for not having a mother.

oh ok . did you talk to your partner? you talk to your midwife. you would have to think about the options.. how far along are you? did you have any stressful things or people within your life now?
it may be a toll on you and your body. so now you do have to be careful and talk to your midwife and partner.
