Yes, totally normal! You may also experience doubts as to whether you will
be able to handle a baby, if you will ever 'qualify' to be a parent, and
other such things. It is all part of pregnancy. Having a baby is a major
change in your life, and it would be far more worrysome if you did not
have such doubts and concerns. It demonstrates that you are mentally
preparing for birth and that is a good sign.

It will probably help you to read up on experiences of other first time
moms. Especially articles that compare their expectations before birth
with the experience afterwards. In my case, the experience was far far
better than I had ever expected.
