Nervousness/scared/potential regret

Did you ever have a moment with your pregnancies where you were like oh no what if this makes my life worse? My husband and I decided to try and it’s something I really wanted when we decided to try but we’re around 5-7 weeks away from meeting our baby girl and I’m starting to get nervous/scared and worry I made a mistake. Please someone tell me they’ve been through this.

I’m not where you are yet in pregnancy but I’d say at any stage of course it’s normal to fear the unknown and our brains like to focus on negative. I’d say to try to naturally guide your thoughts to be more present and focus on the now not all the what ifs! Don’t spiral notice the patterns of thinking and stop it in its tracks! Also open communication with family partner and midwife and I’m sure they will put you at ease

Don't worry...what's the worst that could happen? 🙈 lol j/k It's natural to have these thoughts, but in the end, it's going to be ok. If this causes trouble in other areas of your life, those are the parts with mistakes. 😉
