New Parent Worries, Now That You’re Pregnant
Having your first child is one of those life-changing decisions that will lead to so many other changes in your life.
And, like other life-changing decisions you’ve made in the past – to leave your parents’ home and strike out on your own, and perhaps choosing to travel abroad, go to another part of the country to complete your education, choose your career or change your career and enter into a committed relationship or get married – it is a challenging and emotional time.
There isn’t any crystal ball to look ahead and discover if this is the ‘right’ decision for you.
There is joy and elation, but also fears. Can you do this? Should you do it, and should you do it now, with this partner?
When you get pregnant and choose your baby’s gender to have a boy or girl, expect these first baby thoughts and concerns along with your happiness, and take comfort in the fact that no one is born knowing how to be a good parent; almost everyone learns how to do it with and from their child, putting to use the sound advice they’ve gathered from their support system – other parents and, possibly, their own parents as well as the many excellent books and the wealth of good information you can find online.
