Just an Announcement...

LaDolceVita · 09-11-2006, 06:02 PM

I found out today that I am expecting!

This is unexpected (VERY!) nervewrecking, but overall a really happy occassion...

As for what i will do diet wise..i'm headed over to the womens section right now!

I am still going to completely enjoy coming to this board and reading up on how you all are doing! And i'll be right back with ya in 9 months, haha!

This may be posted in the wrong place but are any of you young mothers, or were young mothers? I'm 23 and as you can imagine i'm just a little FREAKED! I'd love to talk to anybody who had experience, it'd help so much!!

Love All you Guys..KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!

I was only 22 when my first child was born. I planned it that way, was married and we were very happy about it. I think it actually easier to be a young mom...I want to have 2 more but am pretty nervous about pregnancy now becuase I know what it did to my body at 22 and 25...don't know what it will do at 33!

Chantel · 09-11-2006, 08:38 PM

Take good care of yourself! How exciting!

Congrats!!!

All new mothers get nervous whether we are young or not. (I was almost 30 with my son)

BlueBrooke · 09-11-2006, 09:31 PM

Congratulations -- that's really wonderful news!

And I've done one of each -- one "young" (21) and one "old" (35) and YOUNG is definitely EASIER!

emijan · 09-11-2006, 09:53 PM

First of all, congrats on the good news.

I had my children young. When I was your age I already had both of them. And it's totally alright to be FREAKED, scared, happy, ready to jump and cry all at the same time.

beccae_84_2002 · 09-12-2006, 10:45 PM

I was 21 when i had my baby girl just earlier this year(Feb 7)

I will tell you that it is exciting and scary! I couldn't believe i was pregnant until my baby kicked my rib and i could see her moving around in there. I loved being pregnant because it made me feel so beautiful and special, not to mention i had nice shiny hair and my skin was constintly glowing!!

The cravings for me personally were torture i craved carbs all the time and if i didn't eat i felt like i was going to die!!

Having a baby has changed my life for better, it has made me a better person and i don't think about myself! I love watching my daughter grow and watching her be able to do new things and learn. I feel privledged!!
So congratulations on the prgnancy and have fun and enjoy!!!

tlt1978 · 09-17-2006, 10:37 PM

Congrats! Children are a blessing. I'm 28 and have 4..they are the joy of my life!

gettingstrength · 09-18-2006, 08:35 PM

kbeth · 09-19-2006, 08:21 AM

This is wonderful news!! I just had my first at 37...but for all I knew about babies I might as well have been 17!! It was scary at first, but we've found our way, and it is ABSOLUTELY the very best thing in the world!
