Thread: Cant wait!

Hey Everyone!

Im 38 weeks and i feel like the time is going by so slow. I wanna have this baby yet im get so scared at times. My hormones have been out of whack too, crying and getting mad for no reason or getting mad for small things and people just annoy me more. I know its the hormones because im usually cool and laid back. Not too mention my poor hubby have to see me act like a mad woman LOL. Tonight i think my hormones were acting up, i just moved away to be by myself so i wouldnt have to cause any fights that i would later on regret. No one didnt tell me that pregnancy could be this stressful at times, i loved most of it EXCEPT for the morning sickness and the changing of moods.

Anyways, hopefully sometime next week i will go in labor. I have no clue really what i would be feeling , no matter what anyone says or how much books ive read i still feel nervous and anxious. I wanna take the epidural if i cant stand the pain but everyone around me is telling not too, that it eventually gives you back problem? I think im going insane these days just thinking about all the changes,i hope that is normal

Patricias,

This is your first pregnancy, so it's normal to feel nervous and confused and wishing things would hurry up...It's all new to you and you're about to become a mom for the first time. If you feel you need that epidural, ask for it. I've never actually had one, but I know a few women who have and not one of them has told me that it caused them to have back problems, though that's not speaking for all women.

(((hugs)))...I really feel for you.
