first time moms!

Just lookin 4 everyone's opinion. Iv just hit 30wks and 4 days and the last few days I can't help but feel panicked. I have loads of support and am as prepared as anybody can be but I just can't help worry am I actually ready to be a mother. I am 29 and this pregnancy was planned but the closer to my due date the more uneasy im beginning to feel.
Am I just lettin some mad mix of hormones, emotions and an over active level of no self confidence get the better of me and or is this a normal feeling.
Do all first time moms feel worried unprepared and a little out of their depth.

What your feeling is normal. I felt the same way with my first. He ended up passing away 4 days after we had him from a heart and kidney defect. This time Around is the same way. I keep asking myself am I ready because I fear my daughter will be taken from me to but my doctor has done every possible test to see if she is ok. Im 34 weeks Wednesday and I am still freaking out. I finally have her room done and bag packed but as for me I don't have anything ready. Its ok to freak out. You'll be a great mom!

What Lori said. I was the same way wprrying about anything amd everything. I didn't believe everyone that said 'oh your instincts will kick right in' but they totally did. It's pretty amazing actually. Good luck, try to relax if you can!

That's completely normal. When your baby comes you will know what to do.  Mother's instinct is a beautiful and incredible thing.

Just try to relax
