I've started feeling real kicks now, the kind where I don't even have to press my hands on my stomach, and it is freaking me out. I was at university today, typing away at my thesis, when these kind of ticklish, uncomfortable kicks started up.
I had a real moment of panic and disorientation. There is a human INSIDE of me (trying to get out?). It was some kind of Alien moment. This human is inside of ME. And anything could happen. I am supposed to look after it inside of me, but anything could happen.
I have always been a nervous (maybe more like terrified) and reluctant driver. I really struggle with driving. I learned so late in life. I still feel the need to practice driving somewhere before I go for the first time on my own. Now that I have a permanent passenger inside of me, I am terrified again. I am so crap, what if I crash? I mean, it will be much worse now if I crash! I am so out of it sometimes when I drive, anything could happen!!
Oh dear. This all became so real. I think it did not really dawn on me before just how real this all was. The groblet was tiny and I couldn't feel him. It seemed like a story I had told myself rather than something real.
It's so real and I have to look after this human for the rest of my life and keep it alive and I am totally freaked out.

Breathe in...breathe out...everybody feels a bit overwhelmed at times. You are going to be great. And even if you're just okay - baby will never know because they have nothing to compare it to. ;-) The worry never goes away...see? You are already being very parently!
LOL thanks Louisa. It was quite a panic-stricken moment. It is pretty weird feeling a human move inside of you!
