So glad to hear I'm not the only one. I'm 32 weeks today and my youngest is 10. I just started thinking about childbirth and I'm scared out of my mind! I hope that we all have a smooth delivery! Good luck ladies!

I'm 32 weeks and have a 11 year old.  I feel the same way.  I'm scared all over again like I've never done it. I worry about balancing a newborn and a almost teenager. But I know I can do it and have to keep telling myself that! It will all work out. My sister has a 14 yr old and 4 yr old and they are great together.

Yes it's very  normal. Keep a journal, let out all crazy emotions out in it. That way you don't keep things bottled up. Just think of the beauty of having a 9 year old and a newborn. You have the perfect little helper :) stay strong.
