Anyone else overthinking everything?

I'm currently 19 weeks and managing to overthink everything ahead 😂

Like there's talks that my local hospital is to be shut down - dp says it will take years, I obviously wasn't expecting it to be gone by Christmas, but I'm now concerned about the level of care and it's ability.

I'm concerned about delivery - I just want my dp with me, but he's really squeamish and I don't want to offend my mum but I couldn't think of anything worse than her trying to deal with me in labour 😂

And yesterday I lifted up dp's extremely tall 7 YO and he sat on my bump and it still feels like I've pushed it down and squashed it 😂

Does anyone else wind themselves up so much? 😂

I don't know about anyone else, but I am exactly the same.

I am a bit of a worry wart anyway but I am currently 100 times worse.

I think its normal tbh :)

I mean, this is my first and I've been researching schools that he won't even be attending until 5 years down the line.
Exactly the same as you though with the labour. DH thankfully wants to be there nd is more fascinated with it than squeamish but I've been been thinking everything from premature Labour to horrible Labour and complications. So much so I booked myself onto an evening to learn about all my birthing options well in advance so I cn write out about 5 different birth plans in case of different scenarios. DH thinks I've gone slightly mad but I'm not taking any chances.
I also over think all the usual cold symptoms I currently have. I'm certain I've got something worse but I've been pressured it's just the common cold and I'm fine. Pregnancy seems to bring the crazy out.

I feel much better now! Haha.

Honestly I think dp thought I'd lost the plot when I said his dc had 'squashed' my bump, it just felt really low and uncomfortable 😂

I tried to listening to a hypobirthing meditation thing and I wanted to claw my eyes out, made me irrationally angry 😂
