Fear of Babies

I always wondered if I can handle a baby... I was afraid to hold them or play with them or talk to them.. I like them but there is something which holds me back when I see them... Then I realized an incident which happened few years ago. I always wanted to have a pet and somehow I bought a betta fish to my home. I named it too and played with it everyday when I'm back from office. Out of my love for it, I fed it whenever it came up to the surface of water. I didnt realize I was overfeeding it and it died. I cried over it for a week and was afraid to get an other one soon. I blamed myself for it. But now, when my own baby was born I was the one to hold it and carry him for hours without passing him to others. I like handling him and playing with my small guy. I enjoy watching him and a little conscious when feeding him. Its then I remembered why I was hesitant with other little ones.
