Hi all,
I'm fairly new, but did post some in the 'conception' thread in Sept. as I had some odd symptoms and thought I was preg. (It's truly amazing the tricks your body can play on you!) Anyway, I wasn't then, but sure am now!! I am 5 weeks tomorrow. Conceived on a lovely holiday in Langkawi. I am excited, but my husband and I are starting to worry a bit...things like: 'oh dearie, what if we can't do this?' :eek: And I can't help but think 'what if my husband doesn't like being a father? What if I'm not a good mum?'. What if our relationship goes to pot? I absolutely love kids and bubs and always wanted them, so am not sure where this doubt is coming from. My husband has never been around babies and kids as he only has Mum and Dad and Sis in Australia and he just doesn't know what it's like to be a Dad. His Dad was quite absent and didn't pay him much attention at all. So I guess he can't reassure either of us! Anyway, I thought it might help if some of you who already have littlies could say how wonderful it is......You hear so many tales of how hard it is and how the worry never stops. But I figure that people have more than one, so it can't be all that bad! I must say it really is touching how kind and supportive people are to eachother on this forum.
