I’m 31 weeks, but my baby will be coming early (per dr) & i’m SUPER afraid of having the baby. I have a 7 year old & didn’t feel this way with her, however this new baby is really scaring me lol Childbirth is terrifying me because what if something goes wrong, i have my daughter im worrying about. I find myself thinking about weird things like being paralyzed with epidural 😂🤦🏽‍♀️

I don’t know wtf to do with babies, i feel like all the do is cry. I’m nervous about not sleeping, the baby interrupting my daughters routine with crying “every two hours”, connecting with the baby etc. I dont remember how to take care of a baby AT ALL, does it come back to you? Like how often do you bathe them? How to swaddle? I feel they’re so fragile, i don’t want to do anything wrong.

The baby stage is just terrible to me & although i’ll have a support system, i definitely am still having anxiety about it. I just want to fast forward to him being a toddler, when they sleep through the night and take naps during the day. 🥴
