Starting to feel reallly real

Is anyone else on the same boat where suddenly the fact they are having a baby is feeling very real? Like I’m 33 weeks pregnant, and like it’s suddenly hitting me that at any moment he could just be here! I have been sorting his room the past few days and like the idea that he will be wearing all the little clothes and outfits we have in literally a few weeks time actually makes me so nervous, scared and excited all at the same time! But like also it’s very real but still cannot decide on a name for him he is literally just “baby boy” right now 🙈 we keep saying “we have plenty of time to decide” but now we really don’t 😅😳 (Should also note that this is my first and only baby so it’s even more daunting😂)

naw i’m actually shitting it. i’m 33 weeks on saturday and in my head that means i could have a baby in four weeks??? like i’m so excited to have little man here but boy oh boy it’s terrifying me lmao

Totally feel both of you! I'm 34w and float between "get out now please so i can meet you" and "stay in there please I'm not ready!" Haha

I’m the same! I’m 34 weeks now and keep thinking I can’t believe in a few weeks we will actually have a little baby to take care of! We are still getting everything ready which is a struggle as I’m so sore and tired now, so I feel like I’m nearly ready to be finished with pregnancy and looking forward to having our little one but at the same time I’m terrified for absolutely everything about it! FTM too and feel like I have no clue. Also haven’t managed to choose a name yet!

Oh I’m terrified about actually giving birth! Purely because it’s something that will be out of my control! I’m also still working and should be right up until 29th of July (so I should be 37 weeks)! Im on the same boat of being so fed up with pregnancy but also keep saying to my partner “I want him out but I know he needs to cook just a little longer”

I’m 32 weeks ( 33 on Sunday ) me and my partner were setting things up for baby and we put this little baby swing/ rocker together and once it was turned on and rocking with the sound coming out I was just staring off into space like “oh my god there’s going to be a baby in there” it still doesn’t feel real despite the bump and kicks going on in there 😂

We have a name (my partner chose first name and i got the middle names) but im so wary that he’s gonna come out and look like a Peter (not our name choice) or something completely different so im wary to even think about calling baby anything but little mouse now.

Absolutely - it was all fun and exciting until about 34 weeks for me now I’m getting anxious/nervous and the excitement is gone 😂 I know that sounds awful because obviously I’m looking forward to meet him but also equally don’t want it to happen so soon as I don’t feel mentally ready! Ahhh! Xx

I'm 33w and have barely anything 🙃 my nursery isn't even decorated and I feel like I can't get anything until that's done. And we have no idea on name, I think we might leave it until baby is here and test run a few in real life

@Deanne I feel everyone is different! We probably wouldn’t be as prepared if it wasn’t for our family and our amazing friends! I also feel everyone has a method, I didn’t buy most things until we got the furniture in his room sorted but now it’s all sorted out into sizes because I know my partner and family will be wanting to help so I’m labelling everything!

@April I’ve got my buggy in the porch just incase my cats or dogs want to claim it as their own 🤣

@Brieanna my travel system just got delivered but I am not wanting to take it out the box 😂😂

@April I had to ask around about mine because of the old wives tale but when I took it out I didn’t care now my whole porch smells like a new car 🤤😂

Yep. Nearly 33 weeks and I had the same reaction at the weekend. Had to have a little lie down under my weighted blanket to cope. 😂

I'm 33 weeks and feel so unprepared 🙈 I've been told I can't go past 39weeks but still haven't bought the pram sorted nursery etc 🙈🙈🙈 time is just running away!!!
