i am 25wks pregnant with my first baby. in the last week i have been SO anxious that i am not ready. i am all of a sudden terrified that i am going to find motehrhood overwhelming, and that, for the first few months of my little babies life, i will be in a state of befuddlement which will render me a horrible mother!! and by the time i get my act together my maternity leave (6 months) will be over and then i will find leaving the baby (who i've already screwed up by this stage) heart wrenching. my wonderful partner, who is a writer, is staying at home with the baby after 6 months, and when i think about that i get terrified that HE will hate it, and quietly resent me .... etc etc. did anyone else get this scared? honestly i am terrified!
