    Anxiety level out the roof

    Hi,

    I am due July 11 with my 3rd baby.  My youngest is 4 years old and you'd think this pregnancy is my first due to the horrible anxiety i am having. I've been having Braxton Hicks now for a couple of months but last night was so much worse. My first two babies were early so i am thinking this one will be early too, its just the last few weeks are so full of anxiety and restless nights. On top of it all I have horrible lower back and hip pain and cant get comfortable to sleep at night.  Also I dont remember with my other two births if I started producing colostrum this early before the delivery.  I noticed it last night, but cant seem to find any info about producing the colostrum and if there is any relation to when the baby will be born.  Thats what really started my reality check and nervousness was seeing the colostrum last night.  I had a flash of excitement and fear all at the same time.  lol...What an experience we mothers have.

    This is probably my second time writing in the forum, i usually just come here to read but i felt if i wrote my thoughts down it would help with my anxiety.  This last little bit of time left is spent wondering if the next pain could be the one, and who i am going to call to watch my boys while my hubby takes me to the hospital. I know everything will work out and be fine, and i'm sure im not the only one out there with these feelings.

    Anyway, i will stop thinking so much and find something useful to do.

    Thanks,

    Kimberly

    I just wanted to say that I'm sorry you are having so much anxiety right now...i'm there with you. I hope writing down some things helped. I haven't heard anything about leaking colostrum and when labor might start, but I've been leaking for a few weeks now and I think I'm a few days behind you, so who knows if there is a correlation. If you find anything let me know, it would be interesting!! Good luck and keep us posted!!! Hope things go smoothly for you....or as smoothly as they can!
