Scared of baby

[jenea143]

I'm 36 weeks and 6 days I'm very scared to have a baby I know I should be all excited but this is my 1st baby n I don't know much on newborns I'm scared I might fail at being a mother I always wanted a family and now I have my fiancé n a baby on the way it's starting to scare me idk is there any 1st time moms or anyone that's felt this before

I'm 38wks tomorrow and everyone keeps asking if I'm excited and of course I say yes but when I tell them I'm scared they just look at me crazy and ask "why?" I am more than excited to start my new life as a mommy but I also am clueless when it comes to baby's...infants at that. I even went to parenting classes, took an infant CPR class and I am still scared ********. Everyone tells me when I have her it will just come naturally to me.

jenea,  anyone with any brains at all is scared before their first baby is born.  

They're scared of labor,  scared they might not be the perfect parent,  scared of what the future will bring.

That fear will make you a better mother.
