Doubts about a planned pregnancy

[confused233]

This is something I've never experienced before. I'm currently 4 weeks pregnant with baby number 3 who was planned just like my other 2 babies. I found out yesterday I'm pregnant and since then my mind has gone into overdrive thinking about childcare worries, extra expenses, if our house is big enough, if I will cope. All these things I felt fine about prior to ttc but now these anxieties have resurfaced. Is this normal? I am exhausted from staying up all night worrying. I just want to know everything will be ok my children are currently 8 and 3, I just hope it will all work out.

If you felt fine about these things before TTC, why are they a concern now? Have your circumstances changed?

No, my circumstances are the same. Just doubting everything all over again now that baby number 3 is definitely on the way

Will it be a squeeze financially or are you panicked for no reason?

I think I'm panicking for no reason. I think I'm just processing everything still.

If nothing’s changed then I’m sure you have nothing worry about - your brain was probably a lot more rational before you were TTC than it is now with more hormones flying around. Trust your original judgement. And congratulations
