Getting sooo nervous

sammyjo1138 · December 2010

My due dates are nearing and I'm getting really scared. I know of course that I will make it through labor, but I'm still terrified. I have a neurological disease called Intracranial Hypertension that could make a vaginal delivery dangerous. There is a risk of seizures during labor which is a very scary risk. My OB still thinks I can do it and I'm sure everything will fine but....you just never know.

I just needed to get that off my chest, thanks for listening.

Wow that does sound scary! I am sure everything will be just fine though and before you know it you will have that sweet baby in your arms

Trust your doctor and yourself-you've gotten the baby this far and you can do it!

Obviously I can't relate to the specific possible complications, but I understand the nervousness. I've gotten so antsy already, even though my EDD is the 14th.
