This sounds really strange im sure but it seems to me like I am over excited for my baby to get here. Im 36 weeks pregnant and I cant wait to see my baby girls face. Its almost like Im obsessed with her arrival. I sit in her room and look at all her stuff for hours. i talk to her everyday and shes all i think about and worry about. I know that there is the nesting phase of pregnancy but Im way past that and I know that its normal to be an excited mother but overly? I just dont want her to be distressed because Im obsessed with her. I cant imagine her being here. i already love her so much and it doesnt seem possible to love her anymore when shes here but I hope I calm down a little. Does every woman go this crazy?

Maybe you should calm down.
It's not normal to be so obsessed with an unborn child. Imagine how obsessed you'll be when your daughter is older. You'll be that annoying, possessive mother who is overprotective and annoys her daughter 24/7.
I was not like that. I did not "love" my son until the last month of pregnancy, but did not obsess over it. I truly loved my son and was very excited and obsessed when he was born, but I got over it. He is 5 months old now and I still love him to death but I'm not attached or obsessed.
Let your daughter breath! (Now and in the future)
And don't stress yourself out so much, it's bad for you and the baby!

i cant say from experience, but you sound normal to me. I think every pregnant woman has their own thing they go through. you have so many hormones going through you that you aren't your normal self, you aren't in control of your thoughts and emotions. it wont put stress on your baby to think about her. she will be the most loved baby even before she comes to this world. love can only do good. rather than just sitting there maybe you could have her listen to music, read books to her, take walks

I thought I was the only one who did that. I am 31 weeks preggers and I am constantly in her room too. I can't wait either. I talk to her when I am alone also. I think it is normal. I doubt you are stressing your baby out. It's better to be happy than to be sad. I'm sure what we are doing is normal.

of course it is normal to be excited about your baby girl coming into the world. my best friend is going through the same thing right now and she has 7 weeks to go. i also went through the same thing when i had my son and he turned three today.

Most that I've met and I woulddn't think it woul put undue stress on the baby. If overly concerned about that though you might want to consult your OB/GYN or midwife.
