It is normal to worry about EVERYTHING during pregnancy? Am I losing my mind or just hormonal??
I am 25 and my husband is 26. I am 13 weeks pregnant. We have been married for 3 years (together for 8) and we own our home. He has a BA degree and I have one year left to complete my teaching degree. We both work full time and have a small (5K) emergency fund in savings. On paper we are pretty ready for this baby, BUT I am still flipping out!
I work for a small family owned company and money can be tight sometimes. I am the accountant so unfortunately most of that falls on my shoulders. Because of the this and the expense of childcare I have made the decision to only work part-time after the baby is born and now I am stressing out even more! Our budget will not have near as much wiggle room with me part-time. Did I make the wrong decision?? It's too late to turn back; my sister has quit her job and will be taking over my position once the baby comes.
I normally don't let myself get this stressed. My mom says it is just hormonal, but I am afraid that we am simply not ready for this baby!! Are these feelings normal? Can I handle this mom thing?!?
Thanks for the advice!
