Im right there with you!

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

Just take one day at a time...one moment at a time, if necessary.

Yes, sometimes the thought of two babies at once can be .

Maybe it's just me, the big guy upstairs has thown me many curve balls in life. Very few life events have been conventional. I just take a step back, look up, laugh and say... "Geez, are you at it again with me? How much "stronger" do you want to try to make me? "

I guess I've just come to expect it. We are all given in life what we can handle even though it might not seem it at the time Yes, this will be exhausting mentally, physically and emotionally but it's only through such experiences that we truly grow as human beings and can be better mommies

Focus on what is truly important and everything else... the house, errands, whatever delegate to others or they will eventually get done. Just concentrate on you, how you feel and the babies.


Remember the babies can sense your stress so you have to try to let go as much as you can.

I am right here with you ladies.... You have no idea how my night is going. It makes me wonder how strong I'll be after the baby is born....

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

I'm with you on that. Every once & a while it hits me that this nugget cannot live in here forever

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

I was the same way. I was sooooooo scared. Giving birth was always my biggest fear. It is not bad at all. I said I would take fast and painful and that is what I got. Once she was here is was the best feeling in the world and knowing she was ours and here to stay was awesome. It can be scary but it is sooooo worth it. You will be fine. Just relax, take it minute by minute and in the end you will be wanting to do it again.

I feel that way too sometimes. For several reasons - fear of the pain and that the baby is protected inside me - nice and safe and I don't always want to give that up.

But once you hold those babies in your arms - nothing could compare.

You are going to be great and everything will be fine.

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

I have been feeling this way too. I thought I was the only one. Everyone else seems so together and prepared and I feel like I have no idea what I am doing! When the Dr told me a few weeks ago that appointments were every 2 weeks now, I thought I was going to hyperventilate. He really is going to be here soon!!!!.. Glad I am not alone!!!

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

I feel the same way---like wait!! i am not ready for this!!!

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

These thoughts hit me mostly at night. As excited as I am to become a mommy, I still worry about how we'll cope.

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

You and me both! I am totally more freaked out this time even though I've done it before!! I hear ya on the c/s!!!

Re: ok...I am scared and changed my mind.

I felt this way until the day I gave birth. I remember the morning my water broke and I kept thinking did I really want to do this? I was SO nervous. And then the hormones when I came home had me wishing it was just me and DH.

Now it has been almost 2 weeks and I am getting into a better groove and I am having SO much fun shopping for girlie clothes (we didn't know the gender) and I am feeling better.

I am still nervous about making mistakes but I think I will get the hang of this soon.
