His is my second pregnancy, I'm 21weeks and I'm in a panic mode second to none! I'm having a scone girl and cannot wrap my head around a name for her or what her room should like!!! Anyone else in the same boat??? :-SS
I'm the opposite over here like... "should I be thinking about names, ehh I'll think of it later".
As for the nursery, I'm way less concerned given my first didn't even use it until he was 6 months old. I was so worried about getting furniture together and decorating. Man I could have saved a ton of time waiting to do that.
I actually feel like maybe I'm being a little too casual about this one. Which means I'll be panicking a a week before he's due when I realize I've done nothing!
Nope. I go into panic mode when my IF brain takes over...that's about it. Lurk a little and gain some perspective...be glad that decor and names are the only things you have to worry about.

Nope. I'm pretty calm over here. My worries stem from PgAL, not names and rooms.
This. I know my newborn won't care at all what her room looks like and her name is already picked out. I worry more about my PGAL brain than anything else.
I wouldn't worry too much about names and nurseries. A name will come and aside from a safe place to sleep, milk to drink, diapers, and lots of love, newborns really don't need much. Of course I have things on my mind about how DD will react to being a big sister, finding a good caregiver for when I go to work etc, but I definitely am not panicking. Things always fall into place.
FTM here and no panicking going so far. We barely just found out the sex of our LO, we're taking it easy on names although I did warn my DH that we should probably have a couple names decided before too long or I will be bringing it up.
The things that are on my mind more have to do with how to take care of a baby. I have never handled a baby in my entire life except to hold one, maybe two for only a minute. My DH on the other hand has two younger siblings by 9 and 12 years plus a niece/nephew, so he has had plenty of "practice". However, het won't really be taking much time off when our LO is born, so I bought myself "what to expect the first year" to help myself be more prepared.
