Are you sure you won't be seeing her any more? I mean, it sounds as if she's retired and that you're no longer doing real therapy, but she's remained active to support you during your pregnancy.
Maybe your T relationship will transform into something like an unofficial fairy godmother relationship, a mentor, or part of a support network. IMO, every new mother can use a support network for those hectic times when having a calm and caring person to listen to us counts for so much. Or maybe once the baby is born and you're adjusting well to new motherhood she'll withdraw into her retirement, wishing you well. Right now, you really don't know.
Maybe it's time to talk to her about the future, if she sees one, what she's thinking and feeling and what you think and feel. In other words, make her input part of your plan for transitioning to life after the baby is born.
In the meantime, I wish you and your baby much healthy and happiness and hope you'll be able to stay mellow and calm about your T for as long as possible. It's always good to avoid unnecessary stress chemicals in our bodies if we can!
