Hi there and congratulations...You are a
very strong person if you are about to be
mother at such a young age.
Unfortunately, I am still waiting for the
right time to come for me so I can't talk
from experience. But we have had babies
in the family; that, and from what I have
heard, it is a very exhausting task taking
care of a little one.
I think you should find someone who has
had children and ask to help you in the
beginning, until you learn
everything...Maybe even babysit from time
to time...
First of all I am 19 and a single mum of
three kids. My mum raised me and her
other 5kids since I was 3. All 6 of her
kids were under 7 when she became a single
mum.
It can be hard at times and I would love
to help you out just tell me what you need
to know. My determination came from how
well my mum brought all of us 6 up. I
knew I had to be strong to be so
independant. Good luck and I hope I can
help. In my opinion it's easier to be a
single mum from the start than from half
way through and I knoq that from
experience

Hey Posted: 08-17-07 19:54pm
You are a very strong girl. I'm also a
single mother of a little girl, she is now
5 months old. I'm 31 and it is very hard
and expensive. I was so nervous at first.
I didn't no how to burp her i was so
scared that I might hurt her. It just
comes to you. I love it now at first when
there up all night I was going crazy. I
bet you will do great if you have any
question do not be afraid to ask someone
everybody goes through it. good luck.
