Maybe 2 is the lonliest number...

Tonight I’m feeling a bit depressed. I now remember why I haven’t gone out since I got pregnant. Now that I’m starting to show my whole world seems to be changing. Every time I think I have fully adapted, I receive a slap in the face that makes me feel like I’m starting over from scratch.

I went to a friend’s birthday party. It was at this overpriced restaurant and I was barely able to eat my meal but I didn’t go there for that, I went there for my friend. Everyone wants to talk about my pregnancy and ask me all these questions that I have no clue as to the answer.

As we were leaving, I contemplated going dancing at the club but then I thought what’s the point, my feet hurt, I felt fat, and I was having a mid pregnancy crisis. I had realized that after all this my life will permanently be changed. My life is going to be changed forever and this included sacrifice.

I’m feeling scared an alone. What have I done? Can I really handle this? Will I be a good mother? Am I a horrible person for feeling this way so far into things? I'm most scared that I will never find someone. That I’ll end up that sad and lonely cat lady who waits by the phone for updates from their child because I have absolutely no life of my own.

Tonight was the most depressing thing I’ve done – ever!

I trully hold second to God is the "mother"...nothing even comes close to it. U have made huge decision, which was the right one for U and will be happier in the future that U have made...

Stay cool and keep your head-up, life has many angles and these angles is what makes us strong or break-us down...You're very strong and will get over this....
