For pregnant ladies

I have a question to all pregnant ladies there.

I am feeling very very alone these days. I dont have my mum, sisters, friends or anyone from my in-laws around me. am on a sick leave due to illness and the side effects of the medicines have been draining me totally. In such a time I have really felt a great need to have someone around me.

Hubby does everything for me. bring me food, makes me stuff whenever I need to but I guess that the love you get from female family memmbers is different.

Have you also felt like this? Or am I being too demanding and emotional here?

In addition most of my family will be travelling to Pakistan in my last trimester which is also bothering me somewhat because they wont be here for the baby birth if baby comes just a few days/weeks before the expected due date.

Re: For pregnant ladies

you should look at the positive side and be thankful to Allah that your husband is taking such a good care of you otherwise there are husbands who leave their hungry and sick wife at home while they feed themselves outside and never bother.

there are so many women who get pregnant and who don't have a sisters , making life beautiful or ugly is all in your hands. Either you can see a glass half empty or half full all depends upon your perception.

Best is to ask Allah to be with you because no human being in this world can do for you what He Almighty can do.

Re: For pregnant ladies

I agree. I pray namaz and reacite Quran and tasbeeh but sometimes it all just gets over me...specially because I was expecting so-called friends to be there for me and only 1 friend has been calling daily to ask my haal chaal and the rest are too busy with their lives....

Re: For pregnant ladies

awww poor u...its a time when one becomes like a child and needs attention and special care....May Allah give u strength to cope with the situation easily:) and dont worry u will be all fine inshaAllah!!!

in my case, hubby goes to work and when he comes home ha has to study as he is enrolled at uni at the same time as fulltime job. If I wasnt sick I would have been fine I guess but being ill and not being able to go for refreshing walks is just such a limitation..and then I am gaining wight too fast cuz of all the stuff I am eating at home......

but I guess whats bothering me the most is that those I considered friends didnt turn out to be friends and my own family is going to Pakistan so close to my due date.........and that to attend my socalled ex-husband's wedding!!!!!

Re: For pregnant ladies

my prayers r wth u may ALLAH bless u always :)

Re: For pregnant ladies

Where do you live? I was very busy my whole pregnancy. A lot of people decided to "visit" us while I was sick and pregnant. I had to cook clean all the time. It was okay I guess because the time would fly but then there was time I would sit all day alone, snowing outside, husband at work. My husband doesn't cook or clean so I had to do everything all by myself all through my pregnancy so that was a pain. As far as socializing is, I don't need too many people around me to be entertained. I watch tv, spend time on computer, go out shopping for baby. I would talk to my mom a lot on the phone just talking about random blah things. Also, I love cooking and trying new things which helped me a lot too. I would make bkfast for my husband and drop him to work and then at noon take lunch. Adha time to issi falto kamoon main nikal jata tha. By the end of the day I would be so tired that i'll go to sleep fast.
