Any 21/22 year olds in the uk?

[pinkribbon]

Well I'm almost 8 weeks on now and I'm not in any pain now and feel pretty okay, having had one yourself I'll not go into what to expect with recovery times as you'll already know lol.

Jake found it pretty tough tbh... I was in for 2 weeks before my section incase of any heavy bleeding (they'd have done an emergency section) and the next time I came home I had a baby and was really sore so I think he felt a bit pushed out and didn't want to be near me which really effected me emotionally. It's taken me a long time to feel in a decent enough routine to feel comfortable if that makes sense? It's tough with a toddler not gonna lie, myself personally would do anything in my power not to go through it again.

Thanks for being honest. after this i think this will be it for kids for me. i feel im a good mother and lucky i have an easy ( extreemly active baby lol who was crawlin before 6 months!) i dont think i could have 4 babys running around were as before i had any kidds i thought i could handle 4 as ive always wanted to be a mother. do you think its selfish not wanting anymore for the fact i feel im just not good with that many lol i feel i would turn into a bad mum and not spread my time well! xx

 

[pinkribbon]

Of course it's not selfish!!! I originally wanted 3 (2 boys and a girl in that order if I could pick!) but like you I don't think I'd share my time well and it's not really practical either for us, the house is too small, not enough money etc. I feel like 2 is enough I totally feel that way too lol.

Thank you
Yes got everything she will need just need to put my pram up as you have to put the wheels on your self so that will be fun! I'm having a c section due to fears of labour bad excuse I know just super scared. How far along are u?

 

[MrsEngland]

Yup me I'm 21 I have a 2 year old and 6 week old (both girls) and I've been married for 3 and half years! I'm not all that far from manchester either!!

Definitely know what you mean about being judged for being a young parent and for marrying young! We also have our own house, 2 cars and my hubby works really hard to provide for us so that I can stay at home. At the end of the day the people that judge us know nothing!

I'm not pregnant anymore but I have 2 boys, one is 2 and one is 2 months

I had a vaginal the first time and c section second time (medical reasons) and personally I found vaginal birth so much easier, recovery was harder with a section and I found it scary but that's just me!

What pram did you pick?

 

[divershona]

Hi :wave: some of you on here already know me from previous pregnancy's but hi to every one else. Oh and my name's Shona by the way
How old are you? 21
How old is your Oh? 26
How many kids do you want in total? 5 or 6 ... although i think i'll stop at 3 or 4
Are you working? On Mat leave? A SAHM? - If you are on Matleave how long are you off for? currently working
If your a SAHM mum how long have you been? and do you think you will be a SAHM permintently or till at school etc? i was a stay at home mum with my daughter until she was a year and a half which was really good, only reason for that was that i was planning on going to college but then couldn't get funding
if you are working how are you finding being at work with a baby? its not too bad, although my 'baby' is now a terrible toddler she goes to a childminders while i work and i have her the rest of the time and as i only work part time that usually means i have 3 or 4 days a week with her

I'm going to be taking my maternity leave from 29 weeks this time round though as I am just so exhausted already and my back and hips already kill from being on my feet all day plus it means i'll have some extra bonding time with Kaya before the new baby is born.

My OH is 28.

I see you've had LOADS of posts to your thread! I agree, it's really difficult finding people just in-between teens and thirties! I know when I was pregnant with my daughter, I used the main forum section and most of the women I met were in the early/late thirties.

I can't stand people judging me being a young mum, it really annoys me! immediately you get shoved in to the stereotypical teen mum category. Even though I'm not a teen, I look younger and get assumed to be 17-18. The looks some people give me!

Anywho...My names Becky, I've been with my boyfriend Ben for 8 years!!! but mention marriage and he runs for the hills so im saving my nagging stick for after we've had baby number 2

How old are you? 23
How old is your Oh? 27
How many kids do you want in total? Definitely two! Trying for number 2 at the moment :3 Always said I'd like a 3rd in later life.
Are you working? On Mat leave? A SAHM? - At the moment I'm a stay at home mum, and will be until/if/when baby number two starts school or nursery, then I plan on finding a job. I'm lucky enough to have a fab partner who has a degree in forensic computing and a well paid job to keep me being a stay at home mum and own our own house.

During the week I do 2-3 courses at local childrens centers though, just to keep me occupied and build up more bits and bobs to add to my cv when I do plan on working
Ellie goes in to the creche! She loves playing with the other little 'uns

Are your baby/babies at nursery? Nope, she stays home with me. I'd be bored without her!!

 

[blondebabe]

Me! I am 21 with my first lo at 20 months old we are getting married in August and will have been together 4 years... We have a mortgage blah blah blah lol

Any1 from Portsmouth? Xx

 

[lexey_7]

Just wanted to say hello

I'm 22 and 10 weeks pregnant. Not married (yet!! Not for want of trying) but been with OH for 5 years. This is our first baby and we're very excited!! He's 24 and works as a chef, I'm a student studying religion and history which I plan on continuing and we live in Wolverhampton.

Nice to find other people our age group as sometimes end up feeling I don't really belong anywhere xxx
