I'm Mia, a 30-year-old white-collar worker from the North of England. I've been working in an office for years and have always tried to lead a responsible life, so you can imagine my shock when I found out I was pregnant after a drunken one-night stand at my 30th birthday party. It was like a punch to the gut – I'd never had unprotected sex before and suddenly here I was, months pregnant and still reeling from the news.
To be honest, it's been tough adjusting to this new reality. People keep asking me when I'm due and what I'm going to do with my life now that I have a child on the way. Some of them seem genuinely concerned for me, but others just can't help making snide comments about how I must have "lost control" or "made a mistake". It's like they think I've somehow failed at adulting.
I'm trying to stay positive and focus on the fact that this is a new chapter in my life. But it's hard not to feel overwhelmed by all the changes taking place – physically, emotionally, and mentally. I just want to get through these next few months without too much drama or stress. I mean, who wouldn't want to be able to wear their favourite high heels again?
