I find that because it's so taboo to talk about being pregnant in the first trimester it often leaves me feeling very isolated. I've told a select few about my pregnancy and my best friend is one of them. I thought she would be a great support this time around. Last pregnancy she wasn't great support cause she was jealous that I was pregnant before she was (she admitted this to me much later). Not once during first trimester last time did she ask how I was feeling. This time around I was hoping would be different as she has since had a baby of her own. But it's been the exact same! I even sent her an email the other day desperate for support as I told her how tough this pregnancy is on me, not even a response back. I saw she read the message, even a two word "sorry girl" woulda been better than nothing and would take three seconds to send. I'm sure she's busy with her 6 month old, but I feel slighted and disapointed at this point. It's like, if your closest circle can't support you right now, where does it come from? Well here for one, thank God, but without a lot of people around me knowing, it feels hard.. This is a vulnerable time full of misery, sickness and anxiety and as the pregnancy goes on it gets easier. I need the hugs now, so to speak. Anyone else feel this way?
