mixed emotions about baby!

[householder19]

Hi everyone, here's a little about me so you can kinda understand my situation.  i'm a ftm, I'm 13 weeks, i just started college in January, i'm about to be 18 in december, I just got married to a great guy who is very supportive, my mom passed away in 2011..  i'm just wondering if anyone else has mixed feelings about having their baby? Most of the time I'm excited and happy about it but then some days I get depressed and don't want it and then I feel so horrible about not wanting it..  wondering if any other women are feeling this way?  Please no judgment or rude comments, thank you :)

Yea I had and sometimes still have mixed feelings about the baby. I'm an ftm also 18 went to college came home for the summer and I found out I was pregnant. My boyfriend joined the Army so he is away at basic training and won't be here when tge baby is born but I just say to myself everything is okay Im going to have a baby and I will love my baby sometimes I get depressed but my mom sometimes to give me that tough love and tell me to suck it up I just laugh and say I'm okay so you're okay mommy you're going to have a mini me. Congratulations!!!

I think all moms have doubts about having a baby, I know I do! Will I be a good mom? How will I afford it? Not wanting to live on broken sleep. Its normal to feel worried. When your baby is here you will love it more than anything. I promise

Hi ! I'm 35+4 && I felt the same way at the beginning of my pregnancy only be cause this will be my first I didn't thinking I was ready and I didn't think I would be a good mother. I don't know about other people but I'm completely changed now I'm so in love with my little princess and she's not even here yet I guess because I feel her everyday rolling any kicking and you just get so attached.  Don't feel bad for feeling the way you feel its totally normal and when you get further along you'll feel better!

I'm 21 weeks along and just now getting over that feeling. I've been happily married for almost four years, but that didn't seem to help matters. I think, for me, I had this vision of how much a child is going to slow me down, affect my life (I'm very much on-the-go), and affect my finances. It's a lot to take on, but seeing that little baby on the ultrasound a couple of times and now feeling him move (even if only slightly) has made all the difference. I'm still nervous about everything to come, but I know I can only prepare for so much!
