Q: Questioning pregnancy

asked by: OfficerJagger on September 18th, 2008

Experienced User

I'm a short 7 weeks pregnant today.

I have been questioning my pregnancy lately, like;

Am I READY to sacrfice my entire life to attend to somebody else's?

Am I ready to give up spontaneity for resposibility?

I fear that I find myself in regret of becoming pregnant. Is this just the Irritable and sensitive hormones creating this mindset?

Will it go away when our baby is born? Will I even care about having a life? Is the bond that strong?

My sister has a seven month old and can't stand being in his presence, I won't ever be like that, but will I get sick of having a baby too???

Please help. I am genuinely worried about my awkward feelings.

When you look into your newborn babies eyes and see them look at you, you will melt.

I had my first child when i was 20 years old. i don't know how old you are, but quite honestly i thought the same things. but as torwadeo said once you hold that baby and look into it's eyes, you do melt and fall completely in love! i now have two children and wouldn't give them back for the world. some days are rough but you get through it! i never get sick of being around my children. my oldest just started school and i actually miss her when she is gone! i hope this helps!!!
