First time pregnancy.. Any advice?

Question

Hi ladies..! My husband and I have decided to take the next step & start a family..! (Woo!) however.. I am TERRIFIED of my pregnancy.. If something goes wrong.. Labor..! Everything..! Does this mean I'm not ready?? Is it normal to be completely scared of pregnancy?

Answer

It's normal to worry. I worried my first pregnancy because I was going to be a single mom. Now that we're on baby 3. Now I am a little scared lol. Praying for a girl. Don't stress you will be a good mom!

Answer

This is my 3rd pregnancy and I still worry over every symptom and am nervous about the birth. It's so normal especially with your first.

Answer

What they all said! Set back and enjoy the ride! And the ungodly amount of foot rubs you can demand from him lol!

Answer

Yes it is completely normal. I have a 5 year old and am currently 11 weeks pregnant and I am scared to death even though this baby was planned I'm still freaking out. Good luck to you.

Answer

Its normal to be a little scared of the unknown, I was. What helped me was doing research. I read as much as I could so that I knew what to expect. But don't let yourself start stressing about what could happen but most likely won't. Just get informed, watch videos, read books, take classes, ect. I liked watching shows like a baby story and others like it. Try to just enjoy it ?

Answer

This is my first pregnancy too (18w6d) and it is TOTALLY normal to be all sorts of terrified. As it continues on you get more comfortable with it. Don't get me wrong, there are days where I'm still in shock trying to figure out how I'm going to pull this all together. I wouldn't change a minute of my experience yet. Brand new anxiety attacks & all. :)
