Am I the only one?

This is probably going to sound bad, but I've seen so many posts saying 'can't wait till my baby is here' and I totally get that, but all I am thinking is "can my little one just stay in longer." this is my 2nd pregnancy and I don't enjoy pregnancy, it's rough on me.. But I feel so overwhelmed with everything in my life.. And of course I want this baby, but I don't feel ready at all and time is just going by faster n faster.. I'm due march 9th and after my next doc appt I start going every two weeks. I just can't help but feel this is going by too fast..

I feel the same way. My baby is due in 6 weeks. I don't even have her room set up yet.

Me!!! This is my 2nd, too, planned, and although we can't wait to meet her, I'm enjoying the peace and not chaotic life I know will take place after she comes. I know how stressful a newborn can be, and add in a toddler I'm sure it's going to be very stressful at times, so I'm enjoying the quiet time with my little boy, and sleeping through the night, (selfish sounding, sorry haha). I have everything done and set up for her to come, but I'm definitely enjoying the down time until she gets here!

I also think that's what's making my pregnancy fly so fast, too, trying to soak up the quiet while I can haha!

It probably is why it seems like its going by so quickly.. When you can't wait and are counting down the days it goes very slowly..

I'm kinda the same way. I can't wait till my boy is here but i want him on his due date SSSSOOOOO bad (12/12/12) but you wont hear me complaining if he arrives early, which i have a feeling is what's going to happen. But id really like him to cook till his due date lol.

Not selfish of u at all. i know it exciting but honestly my lil man is 10 days old Im very happy he is finally here but I am so exhausted he is up all night n i have a 3 yr old he has been acting out like iv never seen. its stressful sometimes i catch myself thinking i wish i was still pregnant even tho i was so uncomfortable. Enjoy it ladies its a big change once they come.

I'm having a surprise baby, though I think it's a girl because of a remark the u/s tech accidentally said.. My baby is due two weeks before finals and I have a 5yr old daughter.. Plus I'm a single parent.. The baby's father is inn the picture and we're together but we don't live together.. This is gonna be so fun! Yay for sarcasm.. It's weird I'm excited and stressed/overwhelmed all at the same time.. Im also worried about the transition for my daughter and I have no idea what to expect, sure I've had a newborn before, but they are all different.. I'm just the scurred I guess..

I'm honestly scared of how life will be with a toddler and a newborn. I already stress out over my daughter to the point where I have to lock myself in a different room.:/
