@katrainbird, I'm the same I have no help from anyone at all my husband works so it's just me I've never left mine ever unless iv had to like when I was in the hospital I left her with my dad but other then that not at all yet my in laws feel the need to try and tell me exactly how to rase her but have never offered to accurately help in anyway with anything and my sister in law is and older Mam she's in her late 30s and her Mam is bringing up her children for her from the minute there back from school there in there they have breakfast in there and only go back the there mams to sleep and that's only since they've been sleeping through when her youngest was a baby (that's when I first new her) he even sleep there but my girl have never had a night away never even stayed with her for a day but they don't see that they just see what they want Ino I'm avoid Mam yes I make mistakes but Ino I do my best do I don't care never be ashamed to be a young mam it's hard but by the sounds of it your doing a good job and never be ashamed of your kids your not asking anyone else to support you or bring them up so no one has a right to judge you be different if you where giving them to anyone who'll have them and neglecting them but your not so its there problem not yours iv seen a lot of older mams who don't do half as much for there kids I'm not saying there all like that just don't think is right when they think all young mams are bad mams ever there's good and bad no matter how old they are xx

@tresea, yeah that's it people can be so crewl, the thing is I didn't plan on this it just happened my first baby I got pregnant with on the injection and I thought dam I better have another one get it out the way so he's not a lonely child I wouldn't like that and when their both in school I can get on with getting a job ect but after my second son was born my dad died an I put of going to get contraception because I just couldn't face going out I was so depressed I only had sex once in that time by time I went to get contraception I thought better do a test on the way make sure I'm not pregnant I didn't feel like I was at all and was completely shocked when it came up positive, the time before that I was trying for a hole year before I fell pregnant so I was like wow okay I thought about abortion because I'd only just had a baby he was only a couple months old I wasn't in a good place with just loosing my dad but the thought of that made me feel sick when I realised exactly what a abortion was I watched the videos on YouTube and couldn't do it so I kept her and she's literally a amazing little person so sweet an calm she's just lovely to be around I'm so glad I've got her can't even believe I considered for a second getting rid of her, I'm still breastfeeding her and she's 1 she will be 2 in December I was on the implant for almost a year but it was making me unwell I got it out and I still wasn't having periods I read you couldn't get pregnant if not having periods because this means your not ovulating an I thought must be because I'm breastfeeding I'll be okay I no the chances of getting pregnant and breastfeeding are low as my mum never got pregnant or had periods while breastfeeding but bam yes I'm pregnant again. I didn't ever realise just how easy it is to find your self in this situation now I just think I'm so bloody stupid for being so silly ..but yesss I'm always there for all my children I haven't had a baby sitter in almost 3 years I never leave them i don't drink or anything so your right at least I'm here looking after my kids that's the main thing although I wouldn't mind a bit of help ahah xxxx

I'm 35 and iv got 4 boys 17, 15, 11,4 and baby girl scheduled to be delivered Wednesday by section. defo no more for me. xx

@katrainbird, I'm 22 I have a little girl and a boy on the way and I lost 2 babys early on I feel the exact same I look really young for my age as well so that doesn't help but I'm sick of random people giving me dirty looks and asking how old I am my family and friends don't have anything bad to say I get it more from ppl who don't know me at all I don't work but my husband dose I just feel like when ppl see me with a 14month old and bump and judge me right away but it's there problem not mine I love my children more then anything and I'm not ashamed of them yes I'm young but i do my best with my daughter she's my life I do everything for her she's a happy healthy baby and Ino a lot of mams who are a lot older and push there kids off on anyone who will have them long as your doing your best I don't think age should matter and no I probably won't have any more due to helth resigns xx

@sophie94x, thank you means a lot xxx

I have three already, due my fourth in November. My son is 8 and my daughters are 1 and 2..My unborn is a boy. Not sure if I'll have any more after this one but knowing me I probably will. xxx

ignore what people think I know it's easier said than done. I'm your age and I think you're very brave and you should be proud of yourself ☺ xx @katrainbird

We have two, agez 8 and 2 and one due on Thursday. All boys and we would love more. Maybe one or two hehe xx

That's unfortunately sad people these days @katrainbird xxx

@sandee, thanks honestly that's made me feel a lot better I couldn't agree more I just wish people wouldn't be so judgmental xxx

@katrainbird, listen to me a listen to me well FUCK EVERYONE ELSE as long as your babies are happy and loved you have as many kids as you want you will get to the time when you can work again lucky for me my partner works but everyone's situation is different and clearly those people who judge you have time on there hand and are very unhappy in there own life's I think for a mum of your age you are doing an amazing job I know how hard it is so you do you and stick your two fingers up to the rest of them so stunning mummy u do you xxx

I get that question all the time and it doesn't matter how many kids to how many dads anyone has as long as we're all happy.

just wondering how everyone else here feels about their pregnancies as the number goes up? my 1st I was excited and so was everyone else my 2nd I was okay with my 3rd I was worried but my 4th I feel totally ashamed and depressed about it, I just feel like people look at me like I'm only 22 with almost 4 kids and treat me as if I'm a wrongen, I don't work because their all so close in age they keep me way to busy and my boys have learning disabilities so me and my partner need to be here to take care of them, I couldn't do it on my own my children are 4 2 and 1 an obviously I'm pregnant, I know we are both young and we won't have anymore and a time will come where we will both work but not only that we have made 4 potential workers for the county, I just feel so judged about having so many kids, people look at me with the look that says *are you mad* assuming I'm some kind of whore or asking questions "like do they all have the same dad" like yes they do but in my eyes so what if they didn't? I feel like people are so two faced and bitchy. example if someone saw a man out with 4 kids it would be oh what a good dad look at him awww but being a women it's like "keep your legs closed you slapper" nobody in my hole family or partners family or any friends know I'm pregnant because I just feel so judged even though I know they all know I'm a good mum an my partners a good dad I just remember the eye rolling I got when I said I'm pregnant for the 3rd time 😔 xxx @sandee @natzie86 @baby-2016
