i keep getting flashing images in my head/dreams/scares where i drop her, because shes sooo tiny, ive never held babies before, hardly, and shes mine, and my first child. im surprised how scared i am of holding her, i keep panicing if im doing it right, and most importantly i get these images of where ive dropped her,i dont even walk up or down the stairs with her im that scared. its the same with when i imagined my wedding day, my high heels i had images of falling down the stairs…of just falling…is this normal..do i sound freaked..:
Re: scared
Totally normal!
Re: scared
quite abnormal!
Re: scared
Totally contradictory two replies! So what's right?
Awww Nadz, it's normal to feel this way. It's not only a baby, but your baby and it's super tiny and cute. You'll learn to handle her soon enough iA.
Re: scared
hope so....its only when im walking around with her, or holding her when im standing up...sitting down im fine lol...
Re: scared
Sitting down, you are comfortable and it's less risky. I can understand. Don't worry, just be happy you are a mother now lol! Alhum
Re: scared
you'll get used to her! babies are stronger than they look :)
Re: scared
babies are stronger then we give them credit for - and it is completely normal.
But you'll get better at it as you two spend more time together - a little bit of youw ill always worry thats the mom in you.
good Luck honey. :)
