overwhelmed

[LG10]

Hi all :)

I am currently 8 weeks pregnant with my first baby and both my OH and I are very happy and excited.

However, i keep having waves of "ohmygodicantdothis!!"

Does anyone else feel like this? I feel bad for my bump for even feeling this. xx

All completely natural, even when the baby is here and they're growing up you'll still say the same thing - congratulations and welcome to parenthood

You're well ahead of where I was at 8 weeks. I got all the way to 35 weeks before experiencing that feeling. I think I was in denial until that moment, walking down the stairs at work, and realising a baby was stopping me from seeing my feet.
It's a good, healthy response. I predict you'll be great mum.

Completley natural, had the same even with my 2nd but it was more like how am I going to do this with 2. But trust me you find a way, life will be different but in the best way possible

Thanks guys, it's slightly less daunting knowing you aren't the only one to feel crazy scared ha xx

I think most people feel this, even when baby is planned. In my previous profession I worked with lots of parents to be and tbh I would be a bit worried if they didn't show any signs of this and went into it over-confident. You'll be fab, you have a long time to prepare for it. Good luck!
