60 days out and anxious!!!!

Does anyone else get nauseated after thinking about childbirth too long? The closer we get the more concerns I have! Will my baby be healthy? Will I be a good mom? In all honesty I don't think I've ever held a newborn. I love children but babies make me so nervous. I'm terrified my boyfriend says I'm worrying too much and stressing the baby and that only makes me feel worse! 60 days and I'm just trying to find some chill....

I feel the same way too! Sometimes, when I rub my belly after a long day at work & she kicked - I get all teary & emotional. I know for sure I will miss her kicks inside me but at the same time - I can't wait to hold her & kiss her.

And the fact that you are nervous shows that you care about and love your little baby, which is a big part of being a good mother. You'll be fine, just trust your instincts - i plan to do the same lol (yeah, i'm a bit nervous too). And seems to me you have a good boyfriend there to support you.

Every question you just posed is totally and completely normal, even for us women who already have children! It's normal to think this way but it's a learning process. You may not always be the greatest mother but you'll be the best mother you can be and at the end of the day that is what matters.
