Nervous about being a mum!

Question

I'm due with my baby in 5 days and I'm really nervous about being a mum! I'm scared in case I'm rubbish or something. Any advice ? Cheers x

Answer 1

Its really scary I know I can remember because it does come natural, and there are plenty mid wives, health visitors, family. Stop worrying you will be brilliant.

Answer 2

Dont worry!  I had my first son and didnt know what to do but alot of it comes naturally and with instinct and you know there are always people willing to give advice and I'm loving every minute.  Good luck!!

Answer 3

dont worry at all. as long as you've got all the stuff you need - nappies etc, and are prepared as you can be theres nothing more you can do. it comes naturally as you're instincts kick in. you'll be fine! just love your baby and do your best - no ones perfect,and you wont be, just do what you can, and the results will be very rewarding! good luck! x

Follow your instinks and if your not sure if you are doing things right ask your health viseter.Dont get wond up it will come natureally,if you are anquious so will your Babe be.Hope this helps C x*x

Answer 5

I felt like this and I'm sure most other Mums-to-be do as well. You'll be fine, they show you in hospital how to feed, wind, change and bathe baby and the rest you work out along the way. Your Mum and family will be invaluable sources of support and advice. I wish you a short labour and few sleepless nights.  :0)

Answer 6

I was worried about this too, but I'll tell you something... it feels completely natural to have her here and we have adapted well

Answer 7

Its ok I mean giving birth is kind of a scary thing but the epideral believe me is wonderful bc you dont feel pain.I am not a pain tolerant person. I am due anytime now and I scheduled my epideral.I have one other kido and it was fine.Good luck with everything

How can you be rubbish - youre gonna be a mum !!. You'll be brilliant dont worry, everyone has doubts. Motherhood doesn't come with a handbook but somehow we get through it. Follow youre instincts and you cant go wrong. Relax and enjoy it - they REALLY do grow up so quick. Mine are 14 and 13 and i still remember them being little - Happy days, hard work but sooooo worth it. All the best babe xx
