Well, I'm on my 32nd week and the further along I get the more stressed I become. I am constantly doing kick counts, poking at the baby to make her move and at night, I'm up checking her heart beat ( I have a fetal doppler at home). I'm so nervous of something happening. Today, I was sick with the flu and all I could do was count kicks all day long and even though things are good and I'm getting my kicks I need, I'm still terrified. I dont know how to calm down! I think I'm starting to bug my husband and he wants me to relax, but I just cant. I'm worried all the time. The next 6 weeks could not come fast enough and it seems like time has just frozen. October just hurry up and get her please. I am scheduled to deliver the baby on Oct. 5th via c-section. I'm nervous about that to since I have never had any major surgeries ever (other than my 2 DNC's from my 2 miscarriages). I'm just a wreck. Trying to remain calm, but finding it hard to do. I try to envision myself coming home with my precious baby, but it seems like it will never get here. God help me get through these next 6 weeks. I'm having a hard time.

I am sorry you are so stressed, but your husband is right, you need to calm down (easier said than done!!!). Try focusing on this new life, enjoy every kick, meditate and breathe. I will be praying for you and your family. I hope the last 6 weeks fly by for you. ((Hugs)) Amy

I know it's hard, but really try and relax and enjoy those kicks. Sorry you are sick, I know that sucks right now too. This is a rough time, we are all due around the same time and it's very stressful getting though these last few weeks, but we can do it. I will keep you in my prayers! Lots of hugs, Sharon

I know how difficult the end is, it was the very same way for me with Ben. Absolute hell, actually. I wish there was something I could say to ease your mind, but I know that is impossible. Just try to focus as much as you can on how beautiful it is that at this very moment there is a sweet little life growing and thriving inside of you. I'm here anytime you need to talk or cry or vent or freakout or whatever, I promise you I've been there and I completely get it. Take care.

I know how hard this is! As my pregnancy progresses, I become more obsessed and terrified, and I have to wait until freakin December! Ugh. Anyways, try to stay as sane as possible, but i understand your fears completely. hopefully october will speed up and get here so you can have that baby girl in your arms...

At the end I was so scared I made myself sick. I can't tell you not to be because it's impossible. I think as obsessive as it seems to others doing the kickcounts, making her move, and checking the heartbeat is what kept me sane. i hope it passes by quickly for you. I will be keeping you both in my prayers. Hang in there.God Bless, Cynthia
