It seems as if life is being thrown at us suddenly. Lately my head has been a jumbled mess thinking about all it means to have a baby and how it is going to effect our life. I also tend to keep a lot of things to myself which doesn't help either. With Christmas literally around the corner, and a vacation in the new year, I am concerned that we're gonna be knocked upside the head come March when we deliver. Also, I recently found out that I might not have enough paid time to take a whole 12 weeks off with the baby. This was a HUGE blow to me and really upset me. On top of that Drew and I are trying to figure out the housing market and see if there is better re-financing options out there for us.
Sometimes I feel as though things are being fed into my brain but nothing is leaving and soon I'm gonna blow up! I'm hoping all this is normal 'worrying' that comes with being a mother. I've read in my pregnancy books that this does happen, but I definitely didn't think it would be this big of a deal! Behind all of this 'worrying' and stress I do know deep down that our Lord and Savior is walking right along with us in this journey. It's comoforting to know that He is watching over us and although it does seem stressful and difficult, that He is in control. Whew! Thank goodness I'm not...because we'd surely be in trouble if I was. I just have to remind myself sometimes to stop and take a deep breath and know that it will work out, that He will guide us every step of the way. He will guide us every step of the way...

You are right. Put it i Gods hands. Everything will work out the way it is supposed to. You both will be the best parents any child could ask for and thats what really matters. Hang in there! You are blessed.
What you are experiencing is what every first time (and every time after that) mother goes through. It is normal to feel overwhelmed and uncertain about everything. Continue to let God handle it all and He will Bless you in the most amazing ways.
