33 weeks and feeling it.

I'm 33 weeks pregnant with our second child, I'm so tired looking after my toddler Elliot 23 months, I've also just finished work and have become a full time mother, I'm very anxious about being at home with my toddler and a newborn due in feb, my husband is in the forces and is away a lot so it's very difficult. I live miles away from my family and have no friends around the area where I'm currently living, I'm just finding things very stressful this time around what with the BH and back ache.
Is it just me that's being feeling like this and should I just suck it up and stop moaning about it and get on with it....?
Emotions are running very high theses days

Maybe find a mom's group in the area for support? Or if you're breastfeeding, I know a lot of ladies go to La Leche meetings. It could help you find a reliable part time sitter when you need a little break. I've used care.com twice to find a sitter when we're out of state for my husband's job. Even a 2 hrs break just to run errands alone can make all the difference :) I feel like a new/better mom after a break!

Its not something you should just suck up. Its your feelings and no one can tell you how you should and shouldnt feel. I am also a stay at home mom to a autistic 13 and 4 year old and have aother on the way I have no friends in my area and none of my family either. I feel ya I just try to find other things to occupy my mind. :)
