Answer 1

naturral, u are scared and a little freaked out. Don't worry, u will get used to the idea. Just wait till it kicks, its the best feeling EVER!!!! I felt exactly the same at the very beginning. Good luck

Answer 2

when you dont know you are pregnant you can fantasise about how it might end up, baby names and everything without the actual knowledge of its "real" . When you actually find out you have a lot to deal with you have this baby growing in you that you have to protect and everything and al of a sudden its not you anymore u have become 2 for 9 months. All of your emotions will come out now that you have found out you will find yourslef crying at stupid adverts on the telly or something funny that someone has said.its all the goings of motherhood ( dont worry it gets better) the first time you feel that baby and the first time you see that baby on the screen your heart will give a little leap!!! honestly this is something you and your loved one has created however corny this may sound its true!!! everyone has doubts thinking is this really what i want, how much of my life wil change, what will i do? the biggest one is HOW WILL I COPE!!! honestly everyone goes through this!! you will come out the other end absolutely fine with another person who will love you unconditionaly.
hope this helps good luck and congrats to both!!

My friend went through this. She had longed for a baby for quite a while and then as soon as she found out she was having one she freaked out completely! Her head was full of questions as to whtether everything would be ok, if she would be a good mum, even if she wanted it at all and the 'oh my god, what have I done?' question too. I believe it's quite common because you're suddenly faced with the reality of it all. It took her the best part of 3 months to get into the idea of having a baby in her belly! It seems so funny now because she has 3 kids and is a great Mum. Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Answer 4

It's normal for you to be emotional like that. Are you having any other symptoms? They can make it worst. I felt like crying all the time. I wondered why is my body and baby doing this to me. Everyone I know doesn't have morning sickness, and I had it all day everyday and I still do. I am 4 mths now and I still have it, but I know I'll be okay. But I cried all the time during my second and third month. That was all I ever did. But now I am a little more happier and chipper. Everything will pass. You are gonna hate it at times and others you are going to be at awe. Pregnancy is a trauma on your body and you need all the pampering and love you can get, so take all the attention and love. Just say no the advice, it gets annoying.

Answer 5

It's totally human to have mixed feelings - even conflicting ones - about being pregnant. I'm pregnant for the second time, and while this is something my husband and I both wanted and have been trying hard for - it just doesn't seem real to me yet. And I'm 8 weeks along! This is a big change for you, one that will require that your entire life - work, home, family - adjust to the reality of pregnant you. It's scary. And no matter what anyone says, no matter how much anyone has planned or thought things out, no one is ever entirely prepared to be pregnant and be a parent. Don't beat yourself up and feel that you are being selfish - sure you and your partner are in this together (hopefully!), but it's your body this is all happening to. Most important - keep talking about how you feel. To your partner, your family and your doctor. They are all there to support you and get you through this.

Answer 6

Actually, I believe it's fairly common to feel this way once a woman finds out that they are pregnant. I felt this way when I found out even though my bf was excited. I was concerened with the fact if I was truly ready to raise a child and knowing that my 1st concern would be this child that's on the way. 16 weeks along and with the support of my family my emotions changed and I am really excited about having a baby especially after my 1st dr visit where I was able to see the baby and hear the heartbeat.

And I wouldn't consider your emotions selfish just a normal reaction when your life is about to change and new member to the family is on its way. It's definately a journey and I'm only half way there. I still occasionally have my days where I question my ability of raising a child and am I ready but I know everything in life happens for a reason, so obviously I must be ready. Just think they call it a journey for a reason its time for a mother to really prepare for how her life is going to change in just nine months.

Good Luck

Answer 7

I do not think it is anything to worry about. You are very hormonal right now and will be for the next nine months. I was the same way, I was sooooo excited about a baby and we were trying for one and then I found out I was pregnant and it hit me that my life was really going to change and I started to freak out. I think every one of us has done that at some point. It will get better. Just know that you are not alone at all! Well congrats and I wish you all the best with the pregnancy!

Answer 8

I am 5 weeks pregnant. I feel exactly the same. I found out last week. When I did the test I was really excited. 1hr later I was in tears and was scared and was unhappy about the results. The next day I was happy again. This pattern has continued ever since. Having support of your partner and family are a great help. Everyone is different and go though different emotions. It's the "joys!!!!!" of being pregnant. -
Best of luck.

Answer 9

Congratulations and dont worry i felt like this with my 3rd child and he is the apple of my eye finding out your going to be a mother is probably just about the biggest news you will ever get and along with hormones its no wonder you feel a little unsettled talk things over with partner/husband. Best of luck for the future and by the way you are not at all selfish

Answer 10

I know how you feel! It's so overwhelming to think that your whole life has changed, but nothing has changed! Even though you wanted a baby, you have to take the time to realize and accept that the life you know is coming to an end. Plus, on top of the initial roller coaster of feelings about being pregnant, you have to remember that your hormones are starting to change....they can be out of control at times! Give yourself some time to adjust to the knowledge. Good luck and congratulations!

Answer 11

Welcome to the club! LOL I was the same way I was all waiting to do the pregnancy test and when it was positive I almost fainted, I got sad cried my eyes out and didn't know how to react. The farther along I go tthe better it got. I did cry once in a while but it does get better. Then you get into buying some baby stuff and then you can actually see your tummy grow and it's a wonderful thing. Wait till the baby starts moving! It's the most wonderful thing in the world! Good luck!
