I'm terrified!

Jamikarah

I'm new here and don't quite have all the lingo down, I did check the glossary but it still left some things out so I apologize if I write it out. 

My DH and I went off BC in Nov, kind of with the mentality that if and when God wanted us pregnant we would get pregnant, we weren't tracking or anything. This weekend we found out we were pregnant and I'm going to be honest, I sobbed. I'm so terrified. I go through waves...I'm excited, terrified of being a mom, don't know how our lives will change, realizing we have TONS to do to the house, EXCITED. Haha I'm a mess! This is our first child and we don't want to mess up, I don't want to deal with his crazy family. I just feel so unprepared!

Welcome!  To make you feel better, you sound like most other first time moms (myself included).

Relax and enjoy your pregnancy!

First of all, congrats!  I think most of us go through mixed emotions in the beginning.  This is my second child, and I feel the same way you do sometimes, wondering how I will juggle two kids, how DS will deal, etc.  I think it goes with the territory.  Also, there are all those hormones as well.  GL and hang in there!

is anybody really ready?

My husband had a stunned look on his face for at least 48 hours after the second test (he made me do 2 tests on different days) 

I still dont think we will know that it is real until the ultrasound.

Thank you! I felt so horrible for being freaked! Is it normal to have to wait a couple weeks to get into the obgyn?

 I?m tired of pretending like I?m not special. I?m tired of pretending like I?m not bitching, a total fricking rock star from Mars, and people can?t figure me out; they can?t process me. I don?t expect them to. You can?t process me with a normal brain.

This is my first baby too and I completely understand how you are feeling.

I try to take it a day at a time.

We were scared too, your really never ready, what I hear to all comes natural. Hang in there. Wait to see you the ultrasound and hear the heart beat it's best feeling.
