third trimester- who cares?

Question

am I the only mom who isnt obsessing and losing sleep over countless hours of worrying? I feel like I have zero anxiety and have lost any care to worry about him... im wondering if I'm TOO relaxed or if there are other moms just going with the flow.

Answer

It’s kind of funny because I’m an overly anxious person. For some reason I have been completely mellow during my pregnancy. It’s like the pregnancy hormones have leveled me out. I’m definitely not looking forward to losing those hormones after giving birth!

Answer

I’m not stressin... I just can’t sleep 😂

Answer

I’m just going with the flow. My anxiety eased greatly after everything looked “perfect” (specialist’s words) on my 12 week NT scan and then almost completely after 20 weeks. I spent a lot of my focus during second trimester working on letting go of anxiety/fear because of lack of control knowing that I’m not going to be able to protect my boy 24/7 his whole life and I will drive myself mad (and probably him, too) if I can’t relax. Plus, I want to enjoy these last few weeks of pregnancy and not look back at it being a nervous wreck the whole time. I do still have normal anxieties and fears - last appointment I was measuring behind, but I have a great OB whose care I very much trust. Ultimately, I see it as it’s really out of my hands and I don’t want those things to be barriers of joy for me.

Answer

Zero stress here. Just hanging out and waiting until D-day. This is my third though, so I feel like nothing is new

Answer

I was super chill too up until I fit 23 weeks. Than my anxiety kicked into full gear worse than it ever has.

Answer

Im stressing right now cause my daughters 3rd birthday is tomorrow and her party is Sunday. Im hoping he waits to come til next week. Other than that I've been okay!!

Answer

The only things I'm a little worried about is baby coming when my mom is gone (she'll be back at 38.5 weeks and is going to watch our toddler while having the baby) and having the baby in the car 🙈 if my labor is short, it might be close since my mom is like an hour away and my husband could be at work and our hospital is a half hour away. I'm not worried about the baby or labor though 🤷

Answer

I've really settled down in the last few weeks. I'm out of work now and just waiting to have my son and despite being high risk I am 35+2 now and he is measured at 2 weeks ahead so he would be fine if he choose to come now rather than when I am induced at 38. I complain about lack of sleep, and pain but not really stressed or anxious and not worried about this little beast rolling around inside me. :)

Answer

I mean.... I guess parents who have heard that there is or may be something that’s not perfect could be the catalyst for worry....
