Im a young mum. i had my first child a month after i turned twenty and my second was born when i was 21. It seems to me that while all the mums i know are very nice, and we can talk about our children when it comes to talking about much else we get a bit stuck.... you see im the youngest mum at all my toddler groups by a good eight or nine years. the average age of the mums at the groups is about 33.
so i thought id set this thread up to see if there are many other young mums on this board, what are you experiences, of being a mum and of pregnancy? while i love being a mum, i was a bit uncomfortable with my pregnancies, i felt very selfconcious, and thought people where judging me based on 'my bump'. when older mums announced their pregnancys got congraulations, i got shaking heads, is this planned?, and what are you going to do? and ok, my first wasnt planned but my second was. i was in a stable relationship (still am, we are now married) and my husband had a good income, but still i was greeted with negitiveness. that said i have so much more energy than a lot of the other mums i know. me and brandon (my eldest) do crafts and run about and play at the park, while a lot of the other mums sit watching and craving coffee! i hope there are some of you out there! k.x -------------------- Leakys British thread has grown too big for the lounge!
