Feeling a Bit Crappy

I haven't had the blues really during
pregnancy apart from right at the
beggining when .Dom's parents were being
urrrrm *interesting* but today i've
suddenly felt a bit down about pregnancy
etc. I never had a fear of labour and
birth but suddenly today i'm terrified,
i've started worrying about the
possibility that i'll breastfeed her wrong
and she'll have to go onto formula
straight away and just in general that i
won't be a good mother. I guess it's just
nerves because it's getting closer

30 weeks. 10 weeks just seems so quick
considering how quickly my pregnancy has
gone

That's normal. I felt the same way.
After I had her I felt that way too. I
felt that I wasn't a good mother and she
rather be with my husband. It'll go away.
You'll do fine.

Awww...I'm sorry your feeling so down.
It's 100% normal. Most people go through
that ...OMG what the hell am I doing...I
can't do this stage. Maybe you should take
some classes to build some confidence. I'm
sure you'll do a wonderful job. You just
need some r&r. Maybe go shopping or
for a walk or a nice bath or even a nap.
I hope your feeling better soon.
~big hug~

happy this will have made me. Basically

.Charlotte and that she will she her with
me if that's what i want, not much but

honey, totally normal. i got that way,
too. i wasn't afraid of labor at all up
until the last few weeks i was pregnant.
then i got really nervous. & i started
thinking about how i was going to be a mom
& things would never be the same
again.. i even caught myself thinking
(more than once) that i didn't want a baby
& i didn't want him to be born. but
it'll pass! once i went into labor &
once he was born, i was completely in love
with him. you'll be a great mom. i was
scared i wouldn't be able to do it, but
your instincts really take over.

Hey girl!!!! I hope you're feeling better
now, and of course, you will be ecstatic
once you see your little one on the
monitor when you go for your u/s!!!! I go
for mine tomorrow and I can't wait!
I think it's nature that we all get scared
and nervous at many points throughout our
pregnancy, but don't worry, it's natural
to feel this way at times, and it will
pass. I'm sure you be a wonderful and
loving mother and we will all learn how to
cope and get through anything that comes
our way!
Keep that chin up and think of how
beautiful your baby will be!
Post your pic's from your u/s if you can
so we can see your little one too! Good
luck

Thank you! And good luck to you too,
you're going for the 20 week one right?
I'll do my best to post the pic (my
scanner doesn't seem to like me 
) I'm also getting them to double check
that she is a she, i know she is because
at my last scan he checked all throughout
to make sure but better be safe than
sorry!
