oh my gosh yes. for me the word that has described motherhood (aside from love, obviously) is worry. babies rock but there is so much to worry about, i'm still trying to relax 21 months later;) YOURS, MINE AND OURS
Worries…been there. I think my biggest one is just getting the baby here and making sure it's healthy. For now, I'll worry about that one alone. And then the others can come if they want to.
Another sweet post. You have a cute belly though! I'd worry at night about squishing the baby, but you're probably not able to sleep on your stomach anyway!
@yourstruly – sure! it's just the collage option on picnik but instead of another picture, i change the color to whatever iw ant it to be… and the text i add in photoshop but that could be done on picnik as well!
@megan, i am the saaame way with gracie. her first year of life, i was quite sure she had kidney failure, was going to choke on a bone, or get hit by a car. #funtimes
I told my mom once while I was pregnant that I couldn't wait for the worrying to stop.. She replied with "Stop? You think the worrying stops, I still worry about you".. oh how true she is.. the worrying just changes and manifests into something else. Oh the joy of motherhood! You look beautiful as always, warm hugs for you and babes π
to add to all this worry talk: yes, i'm 23 and my mom still requires me to email her at least twice daily so she knows i'm alive (i think her worrying might calm down a little if i moved back to america). she always says "just WAIT til you're a mom…you're going to feel SO bad about doing this to me."
I already worry. About everything. I'm talking EVERYTHING.
Like, why the fridge makes weird noises. What happens if I hear a rustling outside my window? If I'll make it to school on time ((even when I leave early)). I worry about friends, family, pets.. oh wait, I don't have any pets.
I worry. All. The. Time.
Probably not a good sign for when I have kids, huh?
