going crazy

I kind of feel torn now.. DH and I always spoke about kids, babies etc.. all of sudden, I have the sudden urge to run and hide.

I mean I'm not that old, but not young either.

I'm scared to think how our life will change.. with all the what "ifs". I was so ready, like a week ago, all of sudden, I'm questioning myself and freaking out..

Re: going crazy

i can most def. understand what you are saying. although ive always known ive wanted children, there are days i am way more scared than others. but then i think back to how petrified i was when i went to college, got my dogs, got my first brand new car, bought a co-op and bought a house. on all of those past endeavors i was extremely nervous, scared, frightened etc. i doubted the decisons and questioned if i/we were ready emotionally and financially. now, when i look back on those events i feel like its no big deal now. thats how i try to look at having children. i will have them and never want to look back.

thank you for this.. i've been planning, planning.. then to feel like this is gut wrenching. You are so right, I questioned myself for decisions that I thought were a big deal.. but now it seems silly to even consider.. thank you for this.. i really needed it..

Re: going crazy

I dealt with these feelings a lot when I first started TTC. I even put off trying for a few months due to this fear. Then I got PG and during that time all of those feeling went away right away and I was really happy and excited. Unfortunately I had a M/C and am now TTC again.

Dont worry you are not going crazy!!!

Re: going crazy

I was the same exact way I knew I was somewhat ready but if I thought about it too much I would freak myself out. When I got my first BFP with Ds I almost crapper my pants because there was no turning back! I mean we were trying and trying and when it happened I almost fainted lol but you just have to go with the flow life will change with out you even realizing it! HTH
