The impending doom of having a kid. An honest take

I’m very grateful to be pregnant. I do believe it’s a blessing and I know it will all work out. However, I’ve never loved children that much. I’m an animal person. I know I’ll be a good mom but not gonna lie, I just have moments where I’m kinda dreading losing my current childless life. I mostly don’t like toddlers. They’re annoying af.

We foster dogs and have our own cats so our house is already full of chaos and I find so much joy in my animals. I know I’ll love my kid but I’m determined to not lose myself to them and continue to workout and rescue as well.

I’m not worried about balancing this. I really just want to say, I’m having a chill pregnancy and I’m grateful but I’m also already mourning and worried about what’s to come and I think that’s ok.
