Oh wow, where to begin....
As others have mentioned, I'm A LOT more worried about things going wrong with my pregnancy now that I'm on my third. With my first, I didn't have many friends with babies, so I didn't hear the stories about miscarriages/complications/etc. I feel like every pregnancy gives me more things to worry about. Also, I've had 2 medically perfect pregnancies, so I feel like eventually the odds are just going to be against me.
It took me a long time to connect with DS...and I'm so worried that it'll happen again. And what if it's even worse this time???
DD was such a mellow baby, then DS came along and was much more "spirited". What if #3 is even wilder? What if I can't handle it?
What if my in-laws decide that 3 kids are just too many to watch and we lose our free childcare?
What if I'm not the VBAC rockstar I was last time?
How am I going to find an extra person to be at the birth so DD can be there too? (Hospital requires an extra person to "supervise" any child present). I like having a low-key delivery room with as few people as possible. I DEFINITELY don't want MIL there & I don't feel comfortable asking any friends around here.
What if nobody calls or comes to visit after baby is born (like the last 2 times) and I get impossibly depressed (like the last 2 times).
What if the name we pick isn't as awesome as the last two? (Yes, seriously
)
