Hey Guys!
My OH and I are planning to start trying in September and just a few weeks ago I was so broody that I didn't know whether I could wait that long...now I have a totally different emotion about trying - I'm absolutely petrified about trying and becoming a parent.
What's wrong with me???
It wasn't that long ago that whenever I thought about finding out that I was pregnant I would get butterflies in my stomach because I was so excited but now when I think about it I feel sick. I'm now questioning whether I want to become a Mum at all.
I have good friends who have just become Mums and I spend time with them and listen to how hard they have found being new parents I just sit there feeling more and more scared.
Has or does anyone else feel like this? Am I just getting cold feet because we are (quickly) getting that much closer to the date we plan to start trying? Or is becoming a Mum really not for me? I really don't know - my emotions are all up in the air that I'm completely confused.
Just needed someone to talk to because I don't want to upset my OH just yet because he's still really excited and I don't want to burst the bubble...not until I'm sure what is going on with me!
Thanks for listening!
