Good luck to all you ftm's.  Try not to let the fear get in the way of this experience, you only have ONE first baby :) I'm due in august as well. This is my 3rd and last baby, and I'm trying to savor and remember everything i can since it is the last time I'll get to go through this. Its amazing how much you can forget over time. I remember a lot about my first delivery, but not so much about the pregnancy other than being nervous. (It was also 9 years ago lol) Have hubby capture as many precious moments as possible! You cant go wrong with motherhood as long as you love your kids unconditionally and always make them feel safe and protected ❤

Im a ftm, I was more afraid of it in the beginning than I am now at 39 weeks (on Saturday). It's all about your mind set it'll make such a difference! I just stay positive and know it will be over before I know it I know it's going to hurt but it's going to be worth it. We were built for this, our bodies know what to do so does baby! Everything will be fine, just stay positive, labor doesn't last forever and is over much quicker than the 9 months of sickness, aches and pains we go through! Sometimes I get a little freaked out still but I just think of something else and then I'm okay! I'm more scared of what comes after, the raising them and taking care of them etc there's too many bad people and things in the world I don't want my son to be one of those things I'm terrified to screw up!

I'm a FTM and I'm due in 11 days! I'm so scared. And my boyfriend is not worried at all. Um maybe because he's not the one going through it. It kinda pisses me off.

Yeah I tried to ignore that fear through most of this pregnancy but I'm 38 weeks and can't ignore it anymore. I'm a ftm and pretty terrified because I am 100% determined for a drug-free birth.
