Need to vent and need advice

I just had my first baby he will be a week old tomorrow. My fiancé went back to work and my mother has been staying with me. She will be going back to work next week and I am so terrified to be alone with my baby. I don't know why I'm so scared I just don't want anything bad to happen :( I worry way to much in general and now I'm so stressed about the day that she leaves that its making me depressed. Is this normal? How do I fix it :(

You'll be scared at first. But when my fiance went back to work I was by myself with 2 kids. My 5 year old and a newborn its was stressful and depressing at first. But now I absolutely love it  you'll do great

I understand.. I will only have my mother here for a week, and no Baby's father around to help out. But I think mommy instinct will take over : ) You will be fine.
