Back to Teen Pregnancy again!! :)

[octosquishy]

After having my first almost 14 months ago!! (Still brings a tear to my eye how fast he's grown up!!)
I am pregnant with our second, 18 weeks along
I still technically belong in teenage pregnancy, I'm still only 18

Let's see...
My name's Jaala, I'm 18, happily married (for almost 2 years now!) with a son, Isiah Don who is almost 14 months old. I live in extremely rural Arkansas, and am an avid extreme couponer, cloth diaper(Er? Lol!), pretty much crunchy in every way (Decline vaccinations, try to do all organic, try to do all homemade, went to raw goat milk instead of formula for my first son, and now raw cow milk) and plan on homeschooling our children

How is everybody else here?

Thankyou! And good luck with yours Not yet, I've been having a great round-a-bout with my midwife (and the local health office) because I'm almost 100% certain of when I conceived, but they did an ultrasound and went by what size the baby looked (which my first wasn't on their scale of how big they should be at how many weeks, and he was almost a 9 lb baby!) and they are almost a month behind (ahead? They say my due date is october 30th, when in all reality it's october 10th) but, because of that they are saying I'm only 15 weeks, when I'm really 18, but they won't do an ultrasound until mid-June or July, so I've got a while to wait! It's no different than with my first, they waited until I was 28 weeks to finally tell what he was, lol

Oh wow, we will be having ours around the same time in our lives, lol! Good luck with yours And good luck with getting the older baby adjusted to the new baby, Isiah already senses that I'm pregnant, and he's gotten tremendously cranky towards me lately lol! Oh well, he'll get over it soon enough He'll have to, eh?!

Thankyou!! And congrats on yours as well!!
Just let me know exactly what you want advice on and I'd be happy to help

The biggest, and the BEST thing that you could EVER do for your child is plant a garden. Especially when you're pregnant, you can blend up the garden for your baby's first foods I had complications with my first towards the end of my pregnancy and didn't get to plant a garden for him, and that is the BIGGEST thing that I regret. BUT, if you want truly organic you need to get Heirloom seeds (not that hard to find anymore) and you can't use fertilizer or any type of chemical pesticides, that ruins it being called "organic" . If you don't get a chance to, the brand Earth's Best claims to be 100% organic, no growth hormones, no gmo, no pesticides, no fertilizers, that's what I used for my son. After they get off of baby food, it's a LOT harder to do all organic (as I'm finding out with my son) , you just really have to watch what's in the ingredients, really. If it doesn't say organic, it's not.

Ohhh yes, it will. It won't even seem real until you start going into labor, and then not really until you see that baby It's such a great feeling And all the lovins you get for the first few months while they're still newborn...it's just so great

 

[octosquishy]

Yeah hopefully!! are you planning a vbac this pregnancy?

100% YES. Especially since they can't figure out my due date, I don't want to be scheduled before my "due date" :\ , it's really really hard to find somebody in central arkansas who will do a vbac though :c

Hopefully I'll have enough time between them that Isiah can help me out a little, lol, but I know at first it's gonna be hell, Isiah's way too jealous already, at least your kid is good with other kids

 

[teenmommy15]

Thats Good!! yeah dont let them give you another c section unless you absolutely have to! Ugh that sucks i hope finding someone to do your vbac doesnt cost an arm and a leg!
