first time mommy gitters.

I figured being 27 when I had my first baby would make things easier, not true. I find my self 30 weeks in and terrifed and slightly depressed about it. Im excited and really want my baby but at the same time I AM SCARED TO DEATH.

Its normal to be nervous! I get scared sometimes thinking about having another baby, and I have a 5 year old and a million neices and nephews that I've taken care of. It will be OK.

if i can do it, you can do it. be strong.
im 16 years old, and let me tell you what.
a baby is SO much fun and so rewarding.
i love my son so much, and i dont know what id do without him.
dont worry. you will be fine.
you just need patience with a baby, and love.
im sure you will do just fine.
and childbirth wasnt even as bad as i thought.. i pushed my son out natural.
good luck. stay strong.

dont worry... i think its normal.. well i hope it is.. I feel the same way sometimes.. I know I took on a lot with this unexpected baby.i worry about PPD a lot.. i love her... but Im very scared....

Its complelty normal, i was depressed on and off during the final trimester, somedays i wasnt even sure if i wanted to keep him because of all the emotion i was feeling. Just remember it will get better once your hormone levels return to normal. But if it doesnt get better after baby i'd see a doctor. Have you felt depressed everyday all day or just every now and then? If its everyday all day i'd see a doctor just incase.
And being scared is something every new mother feels as she gets closer to her EDD.   hang in there

Don't worry Mommy you will be fine! I got that way at about 32 weeks, I kept telling Jason how I didn't think I would be good at it, and how scared and nervous I was. And I don't think that those feelings ever go away, but once he/she gets here you will just know what to do! You and your baby get to know eachother so quick and if you don't know what to do, they will certainly tell you! She is so great, sooo much fun! Good Luck! You'll be great!
