Hi Nic, hope you are okay, just wanted to send a quick reply to say yes we decorated the nursery (very PINK as we found out we were having a girl). I found being prepared and getting stuff for the baby helped me to stay positive and kept me busy. You never know how long you may have to stay in with your baby or how soon you can come home. But I definately found it helped me, just to make it all real and also to get excited because I was still having a baby after all. I won't fib I didn't always feel this way when I was pregnant, I had my very down days, but looking back now I felt I wasted an awful lot of my pregnancy when I should have been enjoying it. I found my mum a great help as she took me out and kept me positive, especially on the occasions when we would be in a shop buying clothes etc and I would just run out in tears, she would come and get me and reason it all with me. But as all the others have said I think you have to do what is right for you.
Stay positive and stay strong, but also try to enjoy it as I really think that it's important as I think baby knows from your moods and feelings, after all they are part of you for 9 months.
Love Lyndsey xxx
