Am I gonna hate being a mom? ☹️

Idk how to explain this well but I’m kind of dreading NOT being pregnant anymore. I love having her inside my belly, kicking away and cozy and safe and all that. Im still in the honeymoon second trimester phase and eventually I know I’ll get to the point that I’ll want to just get it over with already, but I can’t imagine that right now. Plus, once she’s born, all the crying, no sleep, the worry, diaper changes, etc… again logically I know that the love will be unlike anything else and will totally make up for the bad, but Im kinda dreading her being born in a way. I just love being pregnant 🥲 and it’s making me feel sooo guilty because this baby is also sooo wanted. My husband keeps saying “I just want her here already, I can’t wait till she’s born, I just want to hold her etc etc” and I honestly can’t fully relate because I just want time to slow down and keep her where she is now!!

Side note, my mental health seems like in a really good place and I feel bonded to the baby in my belly but does this mean I might stop having those feelings of attachment once she’s born if I’m having these thoughts now? I’m kinda worried about that too ☹️
