To be honest I'm not scared at all, just excited. But I can certainly understand why you would be scared. It's a huge move and you'll be faced with lots of new challenges without your friends and family close by to back you up.

Embrace the fear and use it to drive you on to make a success of the move.

I would have thought that would be exactly the right time to be scared.

Generally i must say i'm anxious, not scared as such, but i am REALLY excited!!!, however i do have days that make me very scared and worried. Such things like money, jobs, schools, my children make me a little worried and anxious but i try really hard to reassure myself. sorry i'm wittering!!! too much wine............

I wouldn't say I'm scared, but obviously when you have kids it's definately more of a worry.

My chief concern.

I don't think that I've ever felt the responsibility of parenthood as intensely as I do at this time.

Same here, but what an opportunity we are giving them, they'll have dual citizenship and the choice of most of Europe, Australia and new Zealand to live in when they get older.
