Lost confidence in my decisions

Morning everyone
Just want to know if this is a common theme amoungst mums. Since having kids I don’t seem to be able to make a decision with confidence and stick to it. I’m not talking about small everyday decisions, I’m mean big or expensive decisions. I have to over analyse to the extreme and then if I ever do make a decision I feel sick and almost immediately regret it. I swear I did not use to have this problem.
For example, I have just bought a car, not super fancy but quite expensive and brand new which I realise will depreciate etc but I do a lot of driving and wanted something eco friendly and safe. I finally chose a car and put down the deposit and have felt physically sick ever since. We can afford it and my husband has told me to chill out but I just can’t relax and enjoy it. I already regret spending the money and I haven’t even got it yet! I feel greedy and frivolous for getting it.
The same thing happened when we almost got a dog, I had to pull out of buying this black lab puppy because I was so freaked that I’d made an awful decision.
Is this relatively common or do I need help? I’m driving myself (and probably my husband) mad. This is not who I used to be!
Thanks!
