I'm a ftm here. I'm 39 weeks pregnant and am scared... I can't see myself being a mom and that's what scares me the most is I can't imagine it. Anyone ever felt this before meeting there baby??
Lol thank u girls :). And ya that's exactly what i think I've done is convinced myself something is gonna happen cuz I can't see a future with my little othef
@hubbardgirl19, i feel the same way sometimes. This will be my first and I'm 36. There are days when I think "what the hell was I thinking"? I have days when I am terrified and nervous. But then I have days when I remember how much. I've always wanted a child, and how great it's going to be. Sometimes I have to give myself a little pep talk. Lol.
Girl I felt the same way! I was in the delivery room at 9cm having a small borderline panic attack because I was so nervous and scared. I couldn't imagine anything in my future so I convinced myself something awful was going to happen to me. They told me to start pushing and I was crying cause. Was terrified. An hour or so later I was holding my son an it still didn't sink in that I was a mother. It took probably until after I left the hospital to fully realize what I was responsible for. Which brought on another mini borderline panic attack. After the pp hormones wore off and my son started sleeping more I was enjoying being a mom and now I finally can imagine my future with him.
I'm here if you want or need to talk girly.
talk to another mom who knows how you feel. husbands & boyfriends are kinda useless when it comes to our feelings as first time moms sadly /: like I told my bf I'm scared when I go back to college (16 hours a week) my son will forget who I am & he just told me I was stupid & he won't forget his mom, but he didn't understand why I'm scared of that.
Trying to explain it to my husband is hard cuz he doesn't understand why I'm so nervous but I just am having those first mommy jitters and don't know what to do. Lol
it sounds like you're nervous which is totally okay. maybe talk to your mom or another family member or friend you trust or even go to counseling to talk about how you feel if you're super concerned, you don't want to get depressed.
