I had major anxiety before and after Livie was born. I've learned to say to myself everything will be ok and she will be ok. I'm sure you will be a great mother. Just remember if you ever feel overwhelmed don't be afraid to ask for help. With our second on the way I feel a lot more at ease. I think the first one is hard because you really don't know what to expect. You will learn as you go and every baby is different. Everything will be ok.
I was totally there too. I remember just crying to Dennen one night and saying that I was scared I was going to be a mean mom. All sorts of other thoughts went through my head that gave me anxiety too. I don't think the hormones helped much either.
