Having our babies next month!

At our 30 week ultrasound yesterday we were told I should be delivering by the middle of next month. I cannot wait to meet the girls!!! I am very excited, and very scared at the same time. I want to see if I can have an elective c-section because I have such anxiety over pain, labor, etc. But at the same time, I am scared of the c-section itself too. The thought of lying there awake during surgery scares the crap out of me, but labor scares me more. And everything just feels so surreal...I just can't believe I will be a mom next month. I just can't believe it! Time flies so fast.  I am so excited beyond belief to meet them, I also feel like I am not ready now. I think it's just major anxiety! Any of you go through or going through this?

Re: Having our babies next month!

  • Enjoy your last couple weeks before the babies come-the time will go so fast.  I had a c section and it's pretty major surgery but after 2 weeks I felt back to normal.  I was scared of being awake as well but it was fine. 

    I would say to make a list of anything you want/need to get done before the babies come and start doing them now.  Btw, I don't think you will ever feel "ready"Wink

    Thanks and good luck to you too!!!  Both my girls are head down so I was on the fence about having a vaginal labor and a c-section...but for me, the anxiety of knowing I will have to go through labor scares me more than a c-section. Time will tell! :0)

    You and I are about two days apart- I am at 30 weeks and 2 days.. :)  One is close to 4lbs and the other one is 3 lbs and 12 oz...   Doesn't time fly??? It's surreal that's for sure.
