It's finally sinking in

I found out we are having a baby Roman instead of Zola at 17 weeks so it was no surprise at my 20 week scan when it was confirmed. It still really didn't set in though until the end of the appointment when my OB set the date for his arrival. I'm over halfway through with only 130 days left until my 4th tiny human is here. I'm starting to feel so overwhelmed and terrified.

  • Thanks love. I work third shift in a mental hospital so I basically get one night off every week because I still work 6 hours on the mornings of my day off. It's a lot on my body and my mind. It also makes getting things ready for him super hard. I'm always too tired to do anything. Hopefully I'll relax a bit before he is here.
  • With this being my 4th I don't really have to get anything ready... I already have the stuff. It hasn't fully sunk in yet. I definitely feel pregnant and thus lil one is kicking me all the time, but it still doesn't seem "real" yet. I think when I find out sex it might sink in more for me. 21wks 5d we try again next week to find out boy or girl
  • Overwhelmed doesn't begin to describe me. This is my first baby and not only do I feel like I have SO much to do to prepare for him but it is also sinking in that I have absolutely no idea how to take care of a baby. Everyone keeps saying it will come natural and no one knows exactly what to do at first and I'm sure they're right but it's just a scary thought!
  • I can relate with you ladies. This is my second time around with the same sex baby (a boy) so I feel like I have everything, but wrapping my head around the fact that il have two boys under two seems daunting! Don't get me wrong; I am incredibly happy about this baby boy on the way (as he was planned) but the getting use to the loss of sleep again with a toddler on my hip seems overwhelming!
  • This is my 4th and I'm out Of the loop and overwhelmed as well. My youngest is 5 and this is a girl my fiver is a boy. I'm terrified! Soooo not ready
  • I was crazy enough to get rid of everything baby as my two year old grew out of it because I had zero intention of doing this again. I was in the process of applying to become a foster parent when I found out that I am pregnant. 20 weeks in and I'm still so nervous. It's also difficult starting over with all the baby items and trying to remember what I need and don't. Single momma of 3 kids, full time emoloyee, and full time student makes thinking and functioning difficult while pregnant. Hopefully the nerves calm soon and I can settle back in to the comfortable stage.
  • It still hasn't sunk in yet.. I thought it would getting a car seat and stroller but it still hasn't hit me yet.. Even with my baby moving inside of me it still hasn't completely hit me.. It hasn't hit my husband yet either.. He felt him from the outside from the first time today when he was just laying with me on our couch.. It still doesn't feel real to me yet..
