Sick of it.
Posted: 03-29-08 11:15am

I don't feel welcome round here anymore. I'm not making this post to get attention, I'm just stating how I feel. I know a lot of you think I'm stupid for having another baby, but to me family is the most important thing & my main ambition in life is to be the best mother I can to my children. Some may think that's sad, & think that I should get a degree & aspire to be a doctor or a lawyer or something.. but that doesn't interest me one bit.

So yeah, maybe I should have waited a few years before having another baby.. but why should I let society decide when I have children? I'm happy with Jonny, we're financially stable & we love Jenny more than anything.

Anyway, I'll still visit these forums, I physically can't stop myself.. but I doubt I'll be making many posts. I'm a supporter, so if people need it I'll offer my support.. but that's about it.

Hey, what on earth has made you feel like that hun?! I for one think it's nobody's bloody business what you do with your life and you've shown you are a good mother of one so I'm sure you will be just as good a mother of two. Besides, it's not like you're some 13 year old kid who just wants a baby as a toy. You know exactly what's involved and you're very mature.

I must have missed the posts where people have judged you because I didn't realise you'd been made to feel bad.

I agree with Jules....no one should tell you when you should or shouldnt have children. That is your decision, im sorry you feel this way I must have also missed the posts where people were judging you.

I'm lost, Zanny. Who told you that you shouldn't have another baby? That is a 100% personal choice!

Yeah i feel lost i never heard anyone say that! As long as your financially stable and have someone with you I dont see a problem with having another baby, i was nervous to tell my parents i was pregnant the 2nd time even though at that time me and jason were married but joseph was only 8 mths old when i found out i was pregnant again! My mom took it alright but i waited for ever to tell my dad, i had to tell him when i gota double stroller and i asked him to help get the box out of my car because he woulda known anyway i mean why else would i need a DOUBLE stroller. Im excited that your pregnant again, its awesome when they have a sibling to play with, lol just today joseph grabbed jordynne around her neck and well she got tired of that and she bit his hand! It hurt him, they both got in trouble but then there are the times when they sit there giggling with eachother and playing together its sooo cute!

I'm sorry you feel unwelcome Zanny Sad I'm happy for you! I'm one of those people who doesn't really want to do anything else in life besides be a Mommy also, it's one of the most rewarding things you can do. I hope you'll continue to post!

Don't sweat it, Zanny. I'm happy for you and I personally don't think you should give a happy @#$% what anyone else thinks. Laughing There are always going to be plenty of narrow-minded, judgemental, self-righteous people in the world. Just ignore them.

I don't think that about you. If i wasn't in college when Mika is Jenny's age i would have another baby in a heartbeat. I really happy for you and Jonny and of corse Jenny too! If being a Mum is what makes you happy then be a mum because you are so good at it

Im with everyone else, Im not sure where anyone was saying anything about you and your choices on how you should live your life. I dont think you should give two rips about how people feel about anything in your life and your choices. Its just that YOUR life and YOUR choices.

Please share with us where you felt that you are being outcasted and pushed away so that we can work on fixing the problem. If this is just a feeling in general, I hope that you feel better about it soon.

I bet Jenny will be a fantastic big sister btw...

If this has anything to do with the questions I asked in your other post I'm sorry, that wasn't my intentions at all. Though I might just have a big head to think it has anything to do with me.

I think you are a great mom to Jenny, and that you are a clever girl. If I was in a situation where I was with the right boy and we had our lives sorted I would love to have another baby.
