29 weeks with a little nervousness
Hello all. I'm 29 weeks pregnant and expecting my forst child. I'm so
excited and thrilled, but I find myself getting a little nervous - worrying if she's going to be ok and healthy, if the birth will be ok, etc. Is this normal? I just pray for everyhting to go well and for my little girl to be healthy. I tend to over worry sometimes, but I just was wondering about others experiences with these kind of thoughs and concerns. Is this normal? Any comments are appreciated. -E |

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. -- --I mommy to DS (July '02) mommy to four tiny angels (Oct '03 - Oct '04) guardian of DH (age classified) expecting twins (boy/girl) in August |

Is this normal? It's normal to worry, but you also have to find a way to cope with the worry so it doesn't run your life. And, of course, it doesn't end after the birth. At some level, you worry about your kids all your life. Best wishes, Ericka |

Hi
I think its pretty normal, I am 3rd time pregnant and still have a long 6 months to go but am already nervous about labour and what it will bring. I am a little more prepared after doing it 2 times already but I am still scared that baby will be ill or even worse a still born, proberbly has something to do with the fact that I have had problems at beginning of pregnancy. I am also worried about what pain reliefe I should have and am scared of having a c section. All very normal but if I remember correctly all fears disapeer on the day and your body just takes control and things just happen. I am sure you will be fine....... "ECM" wrote in message oups.com...

At some point during the last trimester of both my previous pregnancies, I started having all kinds of labor-, baby-related anxieties as well. The first pregnancy was the worst, though, because it was all so unknown. I figure it's some pregnancy hormonal thing going on. It cleared up, oddly enough, a few days before I actually went into labor both times. Hang in there! Bryna |
