Overwhelming FTM

Just wondering if anyone else is or has felt like this. I had my baby shower recently, and I'm around 33 weeks now and I just feel really overwhelmed with having a baby now, I obvs knew it was coming, I go to weekly classes about antenatal etc and I've done hypno birthing as well but I'm all of a sudden feeling a bit stressed and a bit overwhelmed at the thought of having a baby. Anyone else stressing? And/or feeling like this?

Just to say, being a mum is the best thing in the world! You’ve got this!

You will always have this feeling no matter how many babies you’ve had. Im on my 5th and 32 weeks feeling exactly the same. It’s a normal feeling to have, but once your baby is here and you’re in your own routine everything will feel much better.

I've felt it a few times throughout pregnancy but not really recently, just seemed to of hit me a few days after my baby shower again. I obviously love the fact I'm having a baby girl and it'll be the 3 of us navigating life, but I just get times where everything just feels a lot. My whole pregnancy has flew by and I finish work next Friday and its all just feeling a lot right now.

I had my baby shower yesterday and haven’t felt overwhelmed at all until after the shower. I think it’s an occasion that marks baby’s arrival being closer and it’s inevitable to feel a little freaked out because a huge life change is around the corner.
