    Jess - you are definitely not going to be a bad mum - just that you are posting how you feel shows how much you already care for your little bean. I remember flipping out before DS came along too - have you seen "Cold Feet" at all? where Jen flips out before having her baby?? (If not doesn't matter) but I was sorta like that - so overwhelmed by the feelings that I was having, and if I would be a good mother.
    Only now, when DS is nearly 16 months, do I feel that I am a good mother, and even I have my days that I feel like I'm the worst mother in the world.
    Just by keeping your baby loved, safe and secure, fed and housed, makes you a GOOD MOTHER. Everything else - is irrelevant.
    Good luck.

    You will be great. It's hard work but its all worth it. My advice would be get as much sleep as you can now.
