Almost 38 & unexpectedly pregnant
I’m 38 next month. I have two amazing kids who are 7 & 9. My husband and I are finally in a stage of life where we can travel as a family and our kids are more independent. Now I find myself pregnant bc of birth control failure and I’m honestly devastated. Ending the pregnancy is not on the table for us so please don’t bring that into the conversation.
Looking for encouragement from others who have gone through this. I’m only 4 weeks and already feel like garbage (reflux, nausea, headaches, fatigue and waking up 3:30 every night). I had two difficult pregnancies & I work. I just don’t know how I’ll get through it and I don’t want to miss this time with my kids. Ugh why 😭😭😭
