i have baby coming jitters!

i'm jittery over the baby coming.
my mom kind of puts me down for wanting to have my first child.
i'm almost 34 & married happily for 3 yrs.
she says 'don't say you want to have a baby! say that you want to take care of 'something!' for the rest of your life - w/ all that sacrifice every day!'
'and it's going to be a little punk by the 2nd year on...!'

i know she's crazy & not someone i want to be taking advice from but that's easier said that done- she is my mom.
i am trying to not talk to her as often but geez!
i am scared.
we're TTC - not pregnant yet.
Thanks for any advice!

Hey there.. dont let what she says get you down!! Having a baby is so great! I just had our first child in September.. and so far I couldnt be happier!! He just laughed for the first time a couple days ago.. you will enjoy your baby! I dont see how someone couldnt, they are such a gift! Good luck on getting pregnant! :)
