i m already a mom from 2 yrs, i can wish u all the best i can understand u may be excited n also nervous n i want to suggest u to keep praying god about u boths good health. n i think ur delivery will be before the day as it happened to me , i delivered 11days before my recommended date so be careful n try to stay back at home n try to keep always someone with u for help any time. for me i had gone for my last check-up n had planned to visit my sisiter-in-law to hospital as even she had delivered , after my check-up the doctor told my mom that i may deliver by evening but i didnt agree with my mom as i had no pain n nothing as my mom n husband suggested to go back home but i took them to see my sisterinlaw n there itself by evening i started paining me n we rushed home back , my home was far off n i was just suffering from pain n couldnt even sit n i had to lie down behind. somehow we went back home n later then to hospital it all together took me 5 n half hours journey to deliver. ur post just reminded my own delivery n once again i wish u all the best n wish u both to have a good health n dont be scared just pray to god.

These feelings you are feeling are absolutely normal. I too felt the same way when I was pregnant with my first child, but I came to realize that in retrospect, no one is really ever ready till they are put in that situation and sometimes feel they are never ready to handle the next milestone, but it happens! When your baby is born in 12 days, you will be a complete different person with a different mindframe, because now you are a mommy and that little angel you just delivered is your flesh and blood that you will love and cherrish the rest of your life. With sacrifices come blessings and remember that with time comes patience! :) You will do great! Relax and enjoy these days. Let us know when you have your baby!

I guess I am not still. I have been married for year now but I am not ready tobe a mom yet though I love babies and I am really excited to have my own but not right now. I just want to make some money first and get a small house of our own and then will have babies. My husband and really work hard and hopefully our house will be ready by next year so I guess I have one more year to go yet. Both my husband and I really really excited about our babies. Congrats to you and wish you all the best with new baby which will be arriving soon.

being a mom is difficult but it is also most rewarding and fulfilling. When you see your child for the first time you'll be ready and you know in your heart that you will do anything for that little bundle of joy you hold in your arms. Don't be nervous or anxious because all will go well.

yes you are! Just be strong when you gave birth to your baby and always give priority to your baby. Giving birth is not a walk in the park, it takes a lot of effort and a bit painful but I am sure you can do it.
