Forum : Pregnancy

you should be a great mom and even though you might find it a little bit harder without having the baby's dad there i'm sure your family are all there willing to help you whenever you need it, i am only 18 my self my partner is only on a really low wage and we find it hard financially but everything always works out fine in the end :) good luck with the pregnancy and everything.

Im sure u will be a great mum :) I had my little boy when I was 18 and im not going to lie it was hard at times but just the look in your little one's eye's make u carry on and by the sound of your ex-fiance your better off with out him :) xx

my best friend has just given birth on christmas day, she and her husband split days before she gave birth and now they are still not together, i dont know how she does it but she says that since she has given birth she is stronger than ever, she feels on top of the world, i know its early days for her but that just proves that us women can do it on our own if needs be, im sure you will become a better person for it, my advice is to share your amazing experiances with friends and family, you will feel alot better, make sure when you give birth you stay in as long as possible with the midwives so you can get plenty of practise, im planning to stay in for 5 days, take advantage while i can haha...before you know it you will have your own routine and you will get a break (when the baby is sleeping) to have a bit of you time. things will fall into place soon enough...stay strong hun, you can do it xxxx prove him to be fool by carrying on in life by yourself xxx

hi sara, i was a single mum at 15 it wasnt easy there was times i cried and felt like i just couldnt do it other times i felt great..like the other's say having a baby to take care of obviously wont be easy but it does make you stronger you will have good day's and bad days but you will get there in the end and im sure you will make a fab mum, i had my second baby at 19 (im now 22and pregnant with baby no.3 ) so being a mum young cant really be that bad =) i know it probably doesnt give you much comfort at this point but it takes alot to be single and pregnant let alone a single parent it sounds like your doing great so far keep your chin up and try not to let the split get you down you need to stay strong for your baby..xx Annie and 38week bump! xx

He is not worth it. I know how your feeling and to be honest ive got to the point where i rather not have him around because how bad hes been. Your little one will get you through it all. Im 18 with my first baby and have had severe complications and being unwell with TB and im still a happy bunny just seeing my little one on my scans everyweek and feeling him kick.

You will find strength you didnt have before when that little ones here and if your really finding it hard to pick yourself up go and have a cuddle from him/her or talk to someone. Youll be fine, its the thought thats worse than anything. :) xx
