Five things i've learned from being a mum

 Being a teen mum isn't easy, but it is very rewarding. I have learned so much by being a mum that I thought I would share what I've learned so far with you guys. Disclamier I dont condomm teen pregnancy 1.) How much you can love someone: I didn't know I could love someone as much as I love my daughter. I am always tired and run off my feet, but even when things are rough, I look at my daughter, and my heart swells with love. 2.) You can never be prepared: No matter how much stuff you buy for baby, How much you pack for trips or to run into town to go shopping, things never go to plan, and you will randomly experience a time where no matter how much you tried to prepare it was all for nothing. 3.) You can't make everyone happy: People will always find something to disapprove on wheater it is you choosing to cloth diaper or what you dressed your child in for the day; I learned to not listen to other people and only care about what my partner and myself find work for o...

Differences between my two pregnancy's

 Pregnancy is meant to be an amazing time.  For those of you who didn't know, my first pregnancy when I was 14 landed up as a miscarriage, but my second pregnancy, the baby I am carrying now, has made it all the way through to viability, so I thought I would share the two pregnancy experiences. My first pregnancy . Back in 2018, I fell pregnant with twins when I was only fourteen years old. I found out quite early on I was pregnant. I didn't have much morning sickness, and the major symptom I had was my back pain; it was super bad, and I used to find it hard to walk at times. At that time, I was sleeping on a single mattress on my bedroom floor because my room was so small, and I didn't have room for a bed with my couch in the way, which could have been contributing to that.  Other than that, I didn't get many symptoms to say; the twin's father left me after I started bleeding, but it wasn't very much, so I didn't expect a miscarriage until I went for my fir...

Pregnancy tag | seventeen and pregnant

 1. How and when did you find out you were pregnant? In October, I kind of had a feeling I was pregnant and tested eight days after when I ovulated. (I have endometriosis and feel when I ovulate, so it's very easy for me to pinpoint different times in my cycle because of pain levels, and I can also feel when my egg is released.) the test came up negative, which I should have expected because one, it was way too early to find out, and two, I took the test in the afternoon on a non-sensitice test; cue eye roll. The day before I found out I went on a hike with my partner and his friends and I was really mad and bitchy to everyone, everything was getting on my nerves and I was also sore from all the walking and climbing. I usually have horrible mood swings leading up to my period, but this was ten times worse than normal everything was setting me off, and the slightest thing would make me cry. I just thought my period was going to be really bad this month and thought nothing of it beca...

What I learned from my first pregnancy

It took me so long to write this because my laptop lost internet and I didn’t know how to write this in a way it would make sense and because when writing about a pregnancy you lost, it can be hard not to start to cry, especially when you have to think back to all the memories. 1.) Life is too short Everyone says this, but it took me to get pregnant at 14 to realise it was true. I was ready to be a mum, not that everyone agreed with my decision, but I was. It wasn’t that made me realise it; it was losing them that made me realise, I knew pregnancy lose was a risk for me; my mum had suffered one before, and my grandma on my dads' side had a stillborn plus with my age and my endometriosis I knew it was a risk but realising that my baby’s had died 1 day off being 8 weeks pregnant made me realise that’s baby's life was gone before it even really began.  2.) that not all teenage pregnancy are the same You here all these stories of teen mums losing almost all their friends and ...

pregnancy tag (miscarriage edition)

I decided to do the pregnancy tag today because I was meant to be giving birth today. I will answer the questions for a normal pregnancy but with my miscarriage answers if that makes sense. I was seven weeks and six days pregnant when we found out I had miscarried.   1. How and when did you find out you were pregnant? I had a gut feeling that I was pregnant, and on 27 March 2018 , I got my first positive pregnancy test. Two days later, I went to family planning to get a test done there and got a negative pregnancy test. Then on April 1st,2nd and 3rd, I took a test each morning, and three tests were positive. I  went to the doctors on 9th April and got a blood test done, which confirmed I was 4 weeks 3 days along. 2. How did you feel? Excited, upset and confused. I was excited when I got all the big fat postivite and upset and confused with the negative. The only reason I was excited was because I had always wanted to be a mum, and I always thought I couldn't because...
