Starting to Freak out!

in North Dakota Babies

I'm starting to get a little crazy that this boy will be here soon.  I can't wait to hold him...but at the same time I'm terrified.

It just baffles me that there will soon be a baby in my house all the time, that is mine, that I have to take care of.  If he gets screwed up, it's because of his dad (my one funny)...and me.

We just starting putting his room together and it makes it more real.  I'm sure it is all normal new parent stuff, but wow, it is crazy!  

Did anyone else go through this?

    I haven't been there, but I couldnt imagine NOT freaking out.  I'm sure everything will be great, and I bet the nursery looks amazing :)

    Honey, I already have one and I am freaking out. To think that there will be a newborn dependent 100% on me is just scary, and I've done it before. But let me just say that when your time comes, your instincts just take over and you will do a great job and be a wonderful mom.

    I began freaking out a bit as soon as I got my BFP...

    All I kept thinking was, "this is not going to be like walking and feeding a dog..."

    I'm sure we're all going to be okay and hopefully so will our kids.

    Yep, I felt like that. And still do - almost four weeks later! Whenever I feel overwhelmed or like I don't know what to do, I just remind myself that I'm doing the best I can and so far he's ok.

    Everyone will tell you it's worth it, and it is. I can't imagine my life without him. And it's not like he even does anything yet except poop & pee & eat & sleep & cry. But he's still pretty awesome.

    Oh heck yes! There were times when I thought to myself "What did we get ourselves into?!?!? What was I thinking? I can't be a mommy!" - I hope that's normal Wink

    Don't worry...once you hold that little man in your arms, all of those thoughts and fears completely vanish. Mother's intuition is real...it will all come to you naturally!

    Thanks for the support!  I have not had any motherly instincts yet and I am beginning to think "What were we thinking!"

    It is nice to know it is normal.  I guess I just need to take a deep breath and take it one day at a time.
