A Little About Me A Little About You

[sparklerbear]

Hi! I'm new here, and my name's Ruth. I'm 19, and I now have a 7 month old beautiful baby boy we live in London and I'm a full time undergraduate student; I studied at the university of Manchester up until March, and will be restarting my 2nd year in September, though still unsure where at the moment. I found juggling studies and being a first time mum really difficult, but here I am, enjoying my little man so much!!!
I actually found this because I was having tummy pains, which got worse after I breastfeed...
I may have depression, but I'm trying to carry on living life to the full, with the support of loving husband.
I love to dance, play netball, read, play with my son and watching movies
Xx
