First time 'mum' issues - Real Mum story on MoM

6 Comments

Before I became a mum myself, I was TERRIFIED of the idea of me taking care of a squalling crying newborn, I thought I would break them! And then my older sister got pregnant, and having a baby so near, it completely changed the way I thought about babies, they didn’t look like potatoes, that each had distinct characteristics, I never though I would be able to say I could find a baby in a bunch, but hey, I could find mine and my nephew in a room on toddlers and newborns! I have to thank my sister for curing my fear of babies, always the older, looking out for me.

Lol I hear ya! Wasn’t really a kid person until I had my daughter and now I love kids. I think I was okay with holding them but it was bathing them was my issue I wasn’t able to bath my daughter until she was at least a month older because I was terrified that I might accidentally drown her or something but I’m glad I got over that fear. The only thing I can’t do til now is cut nails but having children changes you for the best

Haha – glad everything is good now. I’m not worried about when my little Bean is here, just worried about going through the labour process.

Do believe a certain natural instinct takes over when one has their own bub. All the best of wishes to you and your little one.

It’s funny how everything changes once it’s your turn.

Haha. I think we all felt this way to a certain extent. When you have your own it is a totally different experience. lol.
