i am stressed . my wife is expecting a baby . i am happy but at the same time i feel littlle stresse by the responsibilities . yeah , i know how you feel . not exactly the same situation , though . i was going through with an adoption , but same amount of responsibilities nonetheless . did it go away after the adoption happened ? well , yes and no . there 's ups and downs , but you get used to the responsibilities . just expect more stress from your wife than anything else .
The imminent arrival of a new baby and the associated responsibilities triggered the feeling of anxiety.
