Almost time

[AnxietyBarbie]

The baby can be born any time now and I'm soooo anxious, I just had an anxiety attack from having to deal with all these thoughts about what's to come. I don't know what exactly to expect except for pain and that's what terrifies me. I'm afraid I wont handle the pain. I'm afraid of not being strong enough. I can't wait to meet my son but at the same time, I don't feel ready, just scared. With this mentality I'm afraid I won't make it. Hopefully it passes within this week but right now so far, every night this past week has been a struggle. I just wanna feel calm and ready mentally for the big day when he's born. Right now I just feel anxious and dazed as if nothing is real. I hope it goes away 😭

Hi AnxietyBarbie, I don't think there is any first time mother to be, who hasn't gotten anxious as to what will happen, can they handle it, what about pain and on and on. Block your ears to what people say. Each birthing is unique. This is where deep breathing can play an important part in bringing down your anxiety level. You will feel calm and will be mentally prepared once you see and hold your little miracle, everything else will be forgotten. My best wishes for your big day. Let us know when you become a mommy. With hugs, Agora1 xx

Thank you! The baby is due the first week of October and I can't wait, it'll be such a relief once I hold him in my arms. Right now the waiting game is killing me, making me more anxious.
