3rd Trimester

pregnancy anxiety?

Anyone else realize how close you are to the finish line and panic?  I've been counting down the days since I got my BFP and all of a sudden, since it's getting close I will occasionally go to bed scared of out my mind.  I'm usually fine by the time I wake up, but I stress at night.  About time, energy, money, etc. 

I wonder if I'll be able to handle 2.  Am I losing my mind?

  • this is only our first LO but I don't think you're alone.  I have at least one moment a day when I think to myself "I can't do this!" or "OMG! I'm not ready!"  I guess it's a little late for that now, eh?  I just try to remind myself that we're in a good position and we have planned for this and I'll be ok.  I worry about being a good parent, mostly, but I also worry about the crazy life changes we'll be making.

  • I will only have 1 and I freak out on a daily basis.  I keep telling myself that it will be great, but I can't help thinking What am I gonna do with this kid????

  • Definitely!  I'm 34 1/2 weeks and I think it just hit me last night.  I find out in two weeks if I will need to schedule a C-section, make a decision about having the baby turned or not if it hasn't happened yet (right now he/she is Frank Breech), or if this baby is going to get to come naturally - so stressed and all I can do is wait and try not to worry. 
  • I had a mini panic attack last night. We hardly have anything for this little guy and can't do too much in the way of room/house prep because we are facing an upcoming move soon after he is born. My DH just tells me to calm down and says to wait to get stuff until after my showers.
