Anonymous asked: Is it normal to fear being pregnant? I want to have a baby one day but then I think of actually creating & growing a new life, I panic. I suppose it's a bit irrational but I don't know...I probably shouldn't have kids if I'm that scared??

Yeah of course it’s normal. You’re totally altering your body and making a life that you are theoretically responsible for. Then, in most cases, you have to raise it and make sure you don’t lose it or forget it or accidentally break it. It’s not irrational. Not being scared of growing something inside you that moves all your organs around and then comes out of you would be irrational. It’s terrifying. But if you want it, then it’s worth it. Especially when you’re not ready to be pregnant right now, your want for kids won’t overwhelm the fear of childbirth.
