Thanks to everyone, you all are the greatest ladies in the world. I would love to let my daughter read all of your comments but I'm not supposed to tell anyone because she doesn't want to say anything right away because she's afraid something will happen, later I will let her read this. Good idea to shop with her for fabric for the baby quilt. Now all I have to do is find a pattern that is easy to make.

Please give your daughter a marvelous book called "The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth" by Henci Goer. It's available now on Amazon.
Having the research to support decisions and "issues" that she'll be exposed to will help her to relax and realize that if she is healthy enough to get pregnant, she'll likely be healthy enough to have a good birth. Chronological age does not always fall in line with biological/body age. After all, pregnancy and birth is the natural function of a healthy woman's body.
Best to the whole family!

You know, I had my first baby at 23 and was scared!! I think part of the fear is "normal" if that makes any sense. So many women have babies older now and everything is just fine! I am so happy for you and wish you all the best!! HUGS
