Feeling stressed

I'm not feeling well right now and need advice right now. Please no judgement. Please don't be critical.. There's a time & place for that. Right now I'm really down so don't kick me while I'm down....

Hard to admit that I’m having negative thoughts about my pregnancy. I’m at 32 weeks and I just want it to be over. I don’t care what happens at this point I’m just so uncomfortable I want to feel something different.

Autoimmune Disease and Pregnancy #Lupus

Not being able to have kids is literally killing me inside. Being told I'll never be a mom, hurts. Watching all my friends go through their pregnancies and love on their little ones, hurts. Maybe I'm just bitter. Or maybe I'm still healing.

One of my close friends also has lupus but shes been cleared to have a healthy pregnancy... for whatever reason, I was told I would most likely miscarry any and all pregnancies. I'm still hurting over the news.

All I've ever wanted in life was a family of my own, to be pregnant one day and build a live with my little one. Being told that'll never happen cuts deeper than I would have ever imagined. I was told back in November, and I'm still reeling.

Pregnancy and prednisolone

Hey!
First, I hope you are all well during this strange and stressful time. 🤞🏻❤️

I wondered if any of you have experience taking prednisolone during a pregnancy or if anyone had a termination while taling the steroid?

I'm on a high dose of prednisolone and need to find out how this can effect me but my doctors don't seem to be able to give me any answers so i don't know what the safest option is at this time.

Im so scared and confused. If you have any input I'd be so grateful. #Prednisolone #pregnancysupport #ChronicIllness

Within Australia what support services did you find to help manage chronic health issues in pregnancy in which regular medication could not be used ? #Pregnancy #ChronicIllness ##chronicillnessinpregnancy ##chronicpaininpregnancy #Australia ##pregnancysupport #Pregnancysupportaustralia

I have chronic paroxysmal hemicrania with migraines and fibromyalgia. I was unable to continue the bulk of my medication and doctors have been scrambling to give me something to actually preserve my quality of life.
The data being used in recommending medication during pregnancy has a lot of holes that say something along the lines of insufficient records exist and this may or may not cause harm to the baby.
I have instead been somewhat left to my own devices to navigate symptomatic treatment which is not working.
