So, I'm studying for my nursing boards that I take in a few weeks and I decided to start by reviewing maternal/newborn because I figured I had the best chance of remembering that info, and now I'm in full blown panic mode! There's so much that can go wrong during pregnancy, delivery, postpartum, etc. I haven't even gotten to the newborn section yet, but in the stuff I've already read, the words "maternal mortality" keep giving me anxiety attacks. I wasn't pregnant when we first learned this stuff, so now it just seems so much more real and terrifying! I completely broke down and started crying to my husband that I'm so scared I'm going to do something wrong and hurt the baby, and I just feel so overwhelmed and unprepared! Any other FTMs have their first meltdown? I wish I could just stop reading it, but unfortunately it's stuff I have to learn. I guess it's better to know than not know, but now I'm nervous about EVERYTHING! Anyone else a worst case scenario thinker?
