I'm having a very hard time being a step mom right now... I'm not sure how to deal with things right now and I'm becoming emotional about it and I'm not sure how to tell my SO how I'm feeling because I don't want him to think I don't love his son. it's just that I've wanted my own child for almost 8 years (since my first marriage) and I've been told that it was impossible... now that it's happening IDK if I have enough love to give... IDK if I'm just feeling this way because I'm pregnant or if it's gonna remain after I give birth but I need to talk I just don't know who to talk to since my mom is no longer with us... :(
In my opinion I think it is just you being pregnant because I felt like that but the difference is I have a daughter and I'm pregnant now and I'm like how I'm going to love both of them? It's just feelings we go through but you will have enough love for the both of them. You don't have to worry about that. Our hearts are big enough to love more than one person.
@daniellethomson, I'll try. I just kinda wanna get it off my chest while I'm still pregnant so he can help me feel better and help me be better about it so after I give birth I'll be at l easier and a little closer to his son too. I feel myself distancing myself from his son right now especially because it's getting closer to the time and his son is becoming brattier
a good way to give equal attention is to involve the son with the baby in everything you possibly can.
Just breathe... I kind of get how you feel. I dont know if Ill have enough time for my pup, who is very attached, and kind of my first baby. When the baby comes, just sit with the baby and his son, and grt him involved, have him be the big brother he probably wants to be let him show the baby his toys and his favorite shows even if the baby doesnt know what hes doing lol.
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Let's talk about SEX! So I'm 16 weeks and my desire has not come back yet. My hubby is being so patient with me but I know how he really is. I'm sure it's killing him. I just don't have the desire to do it. Any advice?
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
So my bf just beat the hell out of my dog and idk what to do now. I want to leave but don't have my paper yet to take my dog with me anywhere I go
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
@ladybri, thanks... I just hate feeling like this and I feel guilty for thinking like that ya know
