Is anyone really freakin scared of motherhood?

I have moments when im really excited and then I get scared of the unknown and hope and pray my baby is healthy. I just want to be the best mommy I can be!

I'm 27 & ftm. I'm looking forward to having my baby but I'm a bit nervous because my hubby and I are not in the best of places. Sometimes I worry that when the baby comes, it'll intensify our problems!!
I know I'll be a great mom bcos I teach children and I have looked after my nephews and godchildren from 6months old. I'm just a little bit scared about the new family life but I pray all goes well

I was like that with my first. In was 17 and terrified I would break down crying wondering if I can be a good mom if I can raise my child correctly. All of that changed the moment he came out and I held him one look at that face and I didn't know what I was so scared of. After that being a good mom came so easy. He'll be 6 next month and my son tells me he loves me(on his own not with me saying it first) at least 20 times a day and gives me hugs and kisses. So I'm pretty sure I did something right so this time around I'm not so scared. Except I wonder what I did to raise such a great child and I'm scared I can't do it two times in a row. You'll always be scared that you're not doing the best or won't be able to for your children. Its being afraid of those things that shows you will he a great parent.

No one is a perfect parent. Its comforting and not at the same time. If you are thinking about it, you are already doing more than some. You have good support through a pediatrician and some others moms to help you. Its not easy but you will have the instincts to take care of your baby. Hope that helps. We all worry about something, but we all want to do our best

I am terrified. Im 33 weeks. Due October 26th. I'm a first time mom. I get really excited then I start to over think and tell myself I have no idea what I am doing. My family is 1, 000 miles away and my husband works 12+ a day, so I have been really emotional and down on myself. I want to be perfect for my son. I just feel so clueless!

The only thing I really fear is giving birth. I know I'll be a wonderful mom after everything is done and over with. I have two children already in school and there's nothing I wouldn't do for them. I just fear pain and extreme discomfort. Giving birth was always the hardest part for me. But I know it won't last forever so that brings me a lot of ease.

I'm also terrified I want my little boy to be happy and healthy...I'm scared because we didn't get pregnant in the best circumstances.
