Due in two days and I just realized

[OctoberBaby5]

I dont know anything about being a mother to a newborn baby :S I pretty much raised my nephew for a year and a half but he wasn't a newborn anymore when I got him.. I mean how do I know how much to feed her or how often.. what if shes in pain or something but she can't tell me what if we can't figure it out.. its my hubbys first child as well..

I felt the same way but as soon as they put your baby in your arms that all goes away! It's motherly instinct you will know exactly what to do!

Thank you mommies I feel better! :) sorry I fell asleep haha

Have no fear it's all instinct :)
Babies normally eat every 2-3 hrs when they are first born.
All Newborns do is eat, poop and sleep :) don't worry!

yeah don't worry it will just come to you because I was the same way.
I was so panicked and worried i wouldnt know what to do,
but you'll know what to do and get the hang of it.
I just had my baby about three months ago and I was worried I wouldn't be a great mother but the pediatricians say i'm doing a good job so that tells me I'm doing pretty well lol

Its everybodys first time some time, we can do this! Believe in yourself! Im starting to feel nervous as well but ik we can do this :-)

They say its instinct.. baby will let you know what they want. You as the mom will be your babies voice and you will eventually know what they want before they do! Dont worry, youll do great! (:

Trust your intuition :) if you can carry that baby for 40 wks, you will know how to take care of it. Every mother and every baby is different. You'll learn your child's eating habits and the different ways they cry. Babies only cry if they're hungry, dirty, tired, or uncomfortable.
