Really scared about the whole change

[BluntHazelBalonz]

Does anyone have any tips please, I am due in less than 2 weeks and my coping mechanisms have been pure distractions and telling myself I still have time for labour. Now that the time is coming closer I am so so worried for the whole process and can’t seem to comfort myself by thinking there will be a baby at the end of it. I tried some free hypnobirthing classes and other things but when I have these thoughts or when a pain comes on I get so panicky and worried. I am scared of change in life in general and although this is a blessing I don’t know how I’m going to cope, I’m already predicting the worst. I have a good support system but it’s not really helping as I will be the one that has to push this baby out and it seems so scary and painful!

My due date is in 10days. Induction booked for Sunday...
I understand your feelings. It's my first baby I am guessing yours too?

I too feel so blessed but also a but scared about the changes. It affects and changes so much, home, lifestyle, relationship. I too have a great support network and my partner has been fab the whole time - really he hasn't changed and just been relaxed and carried on which for me is the best thing because I get anxious and he is just always so calm and chilled.
I just think to myself and often say to my bump look how far we have come already together (may sound absolutely mad 😅🤣🤣) but I think that's true the changes you go through as mum carrying are huge and you have done it so far and thinknnow it's time for the exciting times. ... this is what I tell myself on a daily basis and it's working so far 😌😌🥹(most of the time - if I said I wasn't a bit scared I'd be lying) x
