REPOSTED FROM PREGNANCY FORUM:
"Don't feel bad if you didn't ask all the questions." This is what my mom told me today. Aaron and I have been freaking out since finding out we were pregnant about this baby. I cried this morning and told Aaron I love our son so much and want what's best for him and don't think it's me. He should be born to some one who has a clue! (Intensely emotional pregnancy moment :S) I told mom how random people keep offering silly bits of advice on things that are either common sense or we have researched the hell out of. Every purchase we made was reviewed and examined. We are really trying to learn and absorb as much as we can, but there is so much! My mom told me not to feel bad, that no matter how much we research there will always be something we didn't even know we had to ask and that's ok, we'll learn and we and the baby will survive.
I just wish we weren't so damn clueless. I feel like I have the hang of this pregnancy stuff, but have no clue what to expect when he is born. It is really sinking in now... there will be a tiny person who will depend on me, who will need me to know what the right and best choice is and whose life is literally in my hands. OMFG!
