Becoming a mother is one of the biggest events in many women's lives. It's exciting and beautiful, but it can also be really scary — even for women as seemingly put-together as Mindy Kaling.

While all of us Kaling stans think she will make an incredible, hilarious mother, she revealed to "Sunday Today" that right now she's mainly anxious.

She addressed the fact that many people think she'll be the funniest mom of all time.

“I’m really happy that that’s what I project but right now I just feel so anxious,” she revealed. 

Of course, that's how so many new mothers feel. And for Kaling, who so many women admire, to candidly admit that being pregnant is a nerve-wracking time is reassuring for all women who feel anxiety at the prospect. That's why we love her!

But Kaling is still cracking jokes.

Revealing that she expects to be a very "dorky" mom, she sarcastically added, “It’s so easy to criticize parenting until you’re a parent, so one of the nice things about becoming a parent is that I’ll be able to openly criticize other parenting because I will have a child.”

We're eagerly awaiting it.
