FTM here too. My anxiety kick in to full gear around 36 weeks and I start having nightmares.
My hospital bag is pack and birth plan drafted, car seat installed, baby clothes and sheets all washed. But still think I'm missing something.
Don't think we will ever be ready, lol.
4 days til due date, still waiting...

Sadies your right, lol if I wouldn't be worry then something will be wrong I guess. I just need it to know im not the only one scared. I tell my family that im still not ready for my baby to get here, and they act so fresh telling me dont worry. I know that should help but they have a lot of kids and they are not even good parents, of course I should be worried.

im a first time mom as well, and its completely normal to worry and honestly id be more concerned if you werent worrying lol. i mean unless you have been around newborns alot then its a really scary thing to have to think about taking care of one and giving birth to one.

Oh yeah. I am 35 weeks and after my last doc appt i got soo overwhelmed it just hit me like a ton of bricks that i only had a little longer left and in about a month i was going to be a mommy and all the questions and concerns just came shooting out of my head like will i be a good mommy? will i know if something is wrong? will i be able to handle labor? Will i change his diaper right? and after all that i was so scared, i am going to have a baby soon and i am petrified, i am so scared nothing i do can ease my mind but deep down i know all i can do is the best i can and do everything in my power to do everything right.
