Last minute wobble

Hi all,
Im due in 4 weeks time with my 4th baby… current children are 6-12 years so it’s been a while since I’ve done the ‘baby’ part and I’m having a mini wobble moment 🙈. I’m 42 and over the last few days have been questioning myself - will I find birth more difficult this time due to my age?! Will I be able to cope with 4 kids?! I also can’t visualise having and loving another little person. I know that sounds so odd (and I am sure as soon as she’s hear I’ll be smitten) but I look at my beautiful boys and wonder how can I love another as much as I do them?? I’m so used to it being the 5 of us. I am so lucky to have managed to get preg and carry a healthy child at my age and truly I am really excited….. but can someone reassure me I’m not totally crazy and this is normal to have a few worries at this stage??

thanks xxx

That sounds very valid to me, I hope things come together once you get to meet her :)

Not crazy totally normal. It’ll all be fine and in a year or so you won’t be able to imagine the baby not being in your family.
