Anxious

[anon99]

I’m probably going to be posting a bunch throughout the night.. So I’m apologizing in advance. I’m in the hospital. I’m afraid. I don’t wanna die. I go from calm to freaking out. From feeling normal to feeling all kinds of symptoms. Then I get scared and think I’m dying. Then it gets worse. Then it goes away. I don’t wanna die. I wanna live to see my baby and raise her and go home with her and my puppy. Has anybody been this scared during labor? I can’t see myself going home or holding my baby band raising her. I keep hearing a lady yelling a few rooms over. I think it’s triggering me. I don’t know.

I'm a guy so I can't relate about labor but I was there when my daughter was born.

I realize that this is all stressful for you, but I hope you can at some time, take in the moment that what you are about to do is awesome. Literally life changing. I wasn't planning on my daughter but it was the best thing that happened in my life. The night she was born was a blur (I had to fly back from working out of town and just got back before the birth). I wish I could have been more aware and enjoyed it. I was more nervous than the mom.

You got this...🙂

First I’m a father but I’m here to try and help you with your anxiety. First it’s very normal to be nervous with or without anxiety. Your going to perfectly fine and your baby will be as well. Once you deliver you baby it’s going to be the best feeling in the world. You will be a great mother I’m sure of that think of positive thoughts and all the great times ahead. Your not going to die millions of baby’s are born every years. You have nurses and Dr’s watching everything to insure your safe.
