Weird scared sensation

I’m just wondering if this has happened to anybody else? I’m 36 weeks atm, and just in the last couple of hours I’ve had this feeling in my belly, like a knot and butterflies, almost like I’m terrified but for no reason. I’ve been fine all day and then it just hit me like a ton of bricks… is it just me?

I’ve been getting this too in waves throughout the days, think it’s because everything is getting so real now and it’s very close

Happened randomly to me too, like Danielle says I think it’s because it’s all getting so close to D Day 😬 x

Had this earlier today when thinking about how soon baby is coming. Felt a bit like a panic attack was coming on but just focused on breathing for a minute. I think giving birth is scary because we have no clue how it’s going to go

I’ve had this on an off this week (36 weeks) and last week. I don’t remember feeling like this with my first. I am finding the unknown of her birth really overwhelming. I had a lovely birth with my little boy so I can’t complain but it’s made me more paranoid this time round! I think the anxiety is completely natural! I remember with my first, as I got closer to his birth, the idea of childbirth started to feel less scary as I was ready to get him out. I’m quite an anxious panicky person but on the day I was surprisingly so calm the whole time. It’s like your mind just knows. Hoping you all feel less anxious soon. It’s not the nicest feeling 😩
