Yup, that's us.
I am totally out of sorts this week. Last week I went to hospital every single day. It was exhausting.
I finally got a diagnosis for my heart issue and it consists of fancy Latin words that essentially mean I have a form of tachicardia which can potentially be fixed after pregnancy with a small procedure. On my heart.
I do find that a bit frightening. I found it frightening to sit in a hospital so far away from home and be told in words I barely understand (I don't really get medical English) what they were going to potentially do, or not. It made me want to jump on a plane. I was just worried about the baby to be honest, but this condition I have is not that bad, and I have been assured by my sister I don't need to worry about it.
I am also increasingly irritable because I am now so huge and uncomfortable and the larger the size of the belly the more stupid advice I get and I really just don't want to have to listen... I am taking time out on the couch as a result of all of this. I don't even want to call anybody, I just want to sit on the couch and wait till the world spins at a very very slow speed, just like me.

Good luck with the heart, pregnancy can raise all sorts of issues you never knew you had & it's all about the baby while you carry them. Can you find a better diagnosis explanation on line (you're German aren't you) in your language which might help??
My advice to ward off the dumb questions & unsolicited advice when you're so clearly about to have a baby . . . say "it's not my first" or something that indicates you're a baby/ child expert. Block out the horror stories, some of us had baby after baby who breastfed easily, slept soundly & were all round happy, not crying & had a supportive husband who made you feel a million dollars too, just for being so clever to make a whole person. Think uber positively, you'll be amazed. Best wishes, love Posie
Things will be just fine! Soon you will see your beautiful baby and you will be super happy. Focus on the positive...you can do it :) Take care and if sitting on the couch makes you happy, well, go for it! xox
You are going to have the cutest baby!!! Just remember to chill out and hopefully you are finishing or finished work....crafty stuff infront of a movie on a crappy day like we are having at the moment....
