Feeling emotional nearing edd

Im a ftm, my edd is approx next week. I cant help but to feel very emotional these few days. As much as I can’t wait to meet the little human that has been kicking my ribs, I definitely am going to miss myself, my me time, my personal time with husband, us doing whatever we want without worrying about anything and just going out of the house whenever i want. I feel like after birth im going to lose myself or even fall into depression due to being very overwhelmed etc. Any mummies feeling the same ☹️ #FTM

Dont worry, i guess this is just parts and parcels of life. Even after 2 kids, going to be 3 soon… i still miss myself, my me time and my husband🥲 we dont go on dates anymore and have 0 help. Me n my husband are the only ones caring for our children. Post partum recovery is by far the worst (especially first time) experience. But we will all get thru it eventually. Just always remember to rest as much as u can and try to think of happy thoughts. It can be overwhelming but it’s not going to last forever. As long as husband n wife support each other, its gonna be okay. Enjoy your new journey in parenthood😊
