I have always always always wanted to be a mom. My husband and I had been going back and forth and finally agreed that waiting two years would be best for the future baby and for us as a couple. It was tough, but it was logical for our circumstances.

Then after a while I missed my period right in the brunt of our friends weddings (2-3 in May alone). I figured it was stress and maybe a little illness mixed in there from the constant activity. HOWEVER-

I was over the moon happy that I miraculously got pregnant at 21, while in the completely infertile stage of my cycle. My husband and I are very devout Christians and are excited to welcome Gods little gift to us. We had worries but it was all joy in light of everything.

Then, fast forward through nausea and the nastiness of the beginning of pregnancy and we had our first ultrasound yesterday. It was amazing and everything is moving along perfectly.

But at the end of the night I had a huge breakdown and freaked out- because I just realized it wasn’t gonna just be my husband and I anymore (I also cried over about a dozen other things my pregnant brain decided was catastrophic).

Today, I woke up and I’m still looking at motherhood- more than a bit overwhelmed and anxious.

Don’t get me wrong- I’m excited, I want this baby, this is great- but I can’t help feeling really scared to be a Mom, now.

Any advice? Help?

Does anyone else feel this way?
