don't hate people...this is one of the best post i have read in a while. You will be good mom...just remember to say "I love you" and hug your child every day for the rest of your life. There will be good and bad as you know...but don't over react and show love and teach. enjoy the miracle.

It's hard not to act like a parent who hurt or disapointed you as a child. Just try harder to be a better parent and your child will grow up to be an even better parent. Hopefully we can all break that cycle of abuse wether it's mental or physical. I tried and did a pretty good job and I know my daughter will be an even better Mom so it's working...

the fact that you question yourself is great, no matter how prepared you are you will never be prepared enough, that first fever, the first fall, the first sik up baby, the first weird rash, you are gonna freak, but on the other hand the first look into that childs eyes, the first noise it makes, the first giggle, the first mama, the first crawling then steps, tresure every little moment record them all take picture of every one, write them all down they are gone before you will ever know it!! Congrats and best of luck mommy!

I was scared that when I have kids I would turn out to be just like my mother (abusive), but after being around other people's kids (by babysitting), I've realized that I'm very good at it and didn't pick up those characteristics. Since you are so aware and concerned about the potential of being a bad parent, you definitely won't be. When in doubt, ask other parents for advice or read parenting books/magazines.

No one wants to admit they hate their own mother so much that they fear ending up acting like them. She is afraid her own child will feel the same way about her. Mother's day is a huge holiday because of the guilt of karma and not wanting to curse our own children for hating our own mother's. Great secret.

The fact that you worry about your child and am anxious to meet the new addition says that you stand to be a great mom.

You'll all be good mothers. Wait until that beautiful baby is put in your arms, and nothing else will ever matter again.

I used to think I didn't want to have kids either because my mom beat the shit out of me and I was so afraid when I was pregnant I would do the same. Well I have three kids now and they are my life...I would never cross that line because I actually have self restraint unlike my mother.
