Anxious/nervous/impatient. Not in a good way :(

So according to my app iv just entered my 3rd trimester. This has set off so many alarm bells in my head..

What if I'm not prepared, checking things on my to do list and checking them again. Wer still only half way through getting the nursery done.. I'm feeling incredibly selfish thinking/worrying of the money I have to spend on myself for my hospital bag. I'm worrying incase there's anything wrong with baby when shes born which is the worst part! The nesting phase is in full swing at the moment and it's probably why I'm feeling this way but it's not nice :(

Just suddenly feeling a mad rush to get everything in place so I don't have to worry for the last couple of weeks before baby actually arrives. My heartbeat is actually going ten to the dozen!! Anyone else?? :( x

Me too.. it's half way done but we still have time so relax. This is my 3 pregnancy n ur fine. Now abt the worrying abt the hospital bag or the money ur gonna spend on it.. u really don't need to buy much. Just take a comfortable robe perfectly with front buttons. So it's easier to breast feed. But if u don't have one .. ull have the hospital robe on. N some old panties or disposal undies cuz ull probably stain them. The hospital will provide sanitary products unless u want to take ur own. N ur tooth paste/brush charger n brush. Some slippers to walk around but if u don't have any the hospital will give u socks either way. N on the baby side. Well take just one bottle, blanket, take home clothes hat n that's it. Everything else will be given to u including bottles n milk.

I'm right there with you. I have mini anxiety attacks about it. People who have recently just had babies keep telling me to take it a day at a time and you will never be fully prepared. Also that labor is 100% unpredictable. It's hard to hear for a planner like myself, but parenthood is so unpredictable that it will just prepare us for that.

Girl I understand! I've apparently just entered the third trimester too but I'm as sick as anything with a bedroom still to re-do decoration wise and furniture to put up! And buy loads more things for my boy. The stress is real! You aren't alone, but soon we'll have our bubs c: its a time to be excited!
