So, it hit me today, that soon enough, my countdown will be in the 20s and I got a mini-anxiety/panic attack. Just a rush of fear and being scared all over.
I think my pulse jumped to 150!

All in all, I am soo happy this is getting closer to the end, but at the same time, my excitement is starting to turn into fear.

Hun, I think that is totally normal. I have had a few little flutters as well. We are about to go through one of the hardest, most exciting, most amazing experience of our lives. We will never be the same again. This is HUGE. It is natural to be scared. Just remember you are strong, and can totally do it!!

I know how you feel as excited and happy I am that my little guy will be here soon there are times where I freak out because I know nothing will ever be the same. Your going to be a wonderful mom hun!

Awww... I'm feeling the same way! I had the visit of the hospital today, they showed us the birth rooms and my hands started getting wet, my blood pressure really high and I was so nervous! Everyday we're getting closer and it's getting more real! No turning back !

Hope you feel better

Everyone has these feelings im sure... its just the uncertainty of what will happen and when.. Don't stress too much, i'm sure it'll be fine

I know how you're feeling hun, its perfectly natural.

It's totally naturally to be nervous I think. I find I'm continuously flip-flopping from being ecstatic about the entire idea to being unbelievably nervous. Sometimes I catch myself wondering if I'm ready for motherhood and labour, even though I know I am, and it really makes my heart start to pump faster and faster or I get this odd sinking sensation in my chest.

Being parents is going to be a very big change in our lives and I'm sure it will be difficult at times but judging by the characters of the women on this forum, you all will be fantastic.

Don't fret too much, Aqua! You'll do fantastic.

Ah hun you'll be fine!!! Just think, in a few more weeks time you are going to be a mummy!!! Scary but exciting!!

You know, nature has an amazing way of 'preparing' us for what happens with childbearing and rearing.

We've come a long way since we first saw that BFP. But the nice part is, the changes came gradually and subtly. We didn't grow to our enormous size overnight. In fact, I'm sure many of you had posts on here wondering when you were gonna FINALLY LOOK PREGNANT... hahaha

We started loosing our sleep slowly but surely, and having to get up 3 million times a night to pee is another way I think nature prepares us for getting up to care for a newborn.

When baby comes, most of them sleep-all-the-time. They eat, sleep, poop, and sleep. As you start to recover from delivery, baby needs more attention. His body starts to adapt to life outside your womb and you've mastered the basics of his care, holding, bathing, diapering, etc.

Just with pregnancy problems and issues, they come with baby too, but somehow no matter how stressful they seem at the time, we get through them. We cry and worry and pray to God at times, but when we hear their little laugh, or see them look at us and our DH's with such utter adoration, it balances out the negative.

We watch them grow, and develop personalities, and we strive to encourage that development - along with showing boundries of morality, character, and culture... Living each day seperate from yesterday with new challenges and new issues, but chained together as family.
