I'm Currently Feeling: | I don't think I can do this... I know this is going to sound completely stupid and irrational, but I really don't know how I am going to do this... that is being a mommy. I am extremely anxious the closer I get to the c-section date...  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | You will do great! It is a learning process, you will make mistakes like with everything, and you will have times where you are very frustrated... But then all the happy times you have with your LO will make you forget about all that stuff  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | i know how you feel. This is my first baby. I'm excited having the baby and the same time worry about everything after he's born. But i think eveything will come to you naturally like leedsforever said. I'm sure all of us can do this. Do not worry | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | You have those fears now, but trust me, once you see that beautiful little face for the first time those fears will disappear.
You need to trust that your love for your little one will guide you in the future to make decisions for her and yourself, after all nobody will love her as much as you.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I know how you feel. It's like such an overwhelming mixture of excitement, anxiousness, nerves, anticipation etc. But I'm sure you will be a great Mum hun, and remember there's no such thing as the perfect parent, we all just learn as we go. And you've always got your B&B buddies for support!

I'm Currently Feeling: | I know how you feel  , since hitting the third tri I've had a couple of days when I've just thought 'oh my god this is really happening!' and had to sit down and take a deep breath.
As others have said though, instinct will take over and you'll be a fantastic mum. This is the biggest thing we can do in our lives, it'd be more worrying if we didn't worry about it! |

I'm Currently Feeling: |  I think the fact that you're worrying about it only shows how much you care about your baby, and you will be a fantastic Mum.  |

Worrying is a good sign actually.
I think we are all a nervous wreck actually when we think about bringing a child into the world!
It's huge!
But I strongly belive you have nothing to worry about...your little girl is gonna be one amazingly happy baby!  |
