Thanks girls for all your responses

I definitely think it is a third tri thing... love the "on the job" training reference too!

One of my friends just came and sat with me and reassured me a bit so I feel better. We've put in an order on a Bonds website too so I know I have some basics coming.

Can't wait to pick up the layby and get bubs' room sorted - I think that will help a lot as you say Ali!

Beck, I've thought about those sort of things a little bit - I have a great Obs who is a big believer in letting the woman's body do its thing, naturally and only intervening if it is necessary. So that is good.

I can definitely see DH running on adreneline for the first few weeks too!

Kaz - I haven't even thought about cracked nipples and mastitis

I'm so glad I'm not alone... I know we will all be great but sometimes its good to know you're not the only one freaking out!!!
