I always thought I wanted two children.. always..
Until I had Poppy, I now realise I'm happy with just the one. We are so lucky we have a wonderful life. We can enjoy several foreign holidays a year, we own our own house, we have nice cars, we are comfortable and I'm happy with how things are...
My partner doesn't agree. He's desperate for a second one and it's causing so many arguments. I don't know what to do. I'm at my wits end! It's ok for him he gets time away from being Dad he doesn't see all the super hard times!
@catherineln25 I Was The Same I Had preaclamsia and then had to be induce 3 weeks early I was always in hospital and it was so hard xxx
@chloemcmahon96 I wouldn't mind but I was in and out of hospital with hyperemesis. I was admitted at 3 weeks pregnant with sickness and it all went downhill from there. I work and then spend 4 solid days with Poppy he can escape at work. It's so so so hard! Xxxx
@catherineln25 just tell your partner your happy at the min men don't understand how hard it actually is for us women I find it hard with 1 and I'm happy with 1 at the min maybe in the future I would have another but not right now just say you happy and your enjoying the memories with your daughter xx
@chloemcmahon96 poppy is so happy being on her own. She's the centre of my mum and sisters world and I think she would struggle competing with someone else for everyone's attention. I'm just so comfortable with how everything is. I like my designer clothes, shoes and handbags. I like having several holidays abroad. I just love how everything is. I can spoil Poppy. We save hundreds for her every month so she can buy a house when she's older and I don't know all that to be shaken up with another child. We wouldn't have the same type of life anymore. Poppy is going through her terrible two's as well and it's so so so hard! Xxx
I'm the exact same hun my partner wants another one already and I only had my baby girl 5 months ago and to be honest if I had it my way I just have the one but he says it's tight just having a lonely child xx
My partner works full time.. i work part time and the other days I'm at home with Poppy on my own. Although we are so lucky and get to do loads of fun things sometimes I just want a break and with two it would be even harder to get that break. I'm lucky I have amazing support off my mum and sister but his family don't help what so ever they see Poppy twice a year if that. I'm ripping my hair out over it all!
I am in the sane boat but vice versa. I want one more and he doesn’t. Its not easy being in this situation.
Keep the baby or Abortion.......
I'm 5 weeks pregnant which was not planned, told my family and there over the moon. I've been with my boyfriend for 4 years, we said we would be together no matter what. We both live with our parents and I'm in full-time work and he isn't. I've always wanted to be a mum it's one of my dreams, but my boyfriend thinks we should have an abortion because he thinks we are not ready, he doesn't have a full-time job and we are not living together. I don't believe in ab...
Make your own breakfast!
At what age do you think a child should be making their own breakfast? I have a 10 year old and I think he is perfectly capable of making himself breakfast. It doesn't take rocket science to put some waffles into the toaster, or microwave some pancakes. My husband insists that he needs to have breakfast made for him because if we left it up to him he wouldn't eat enough and it would take him forever.
Rant
My SO has been rude a lot ever since I've gotten pregnant...he said he doesn't care about my pregnancy, he doesn't even take one day off from work just ONE to come to at least one ultra sound appointment. I mean he's always making sure I'm fed, he lets use the heating pad, and even apologized to saying he doesn't care. He can mess with me all day but when I want to join and play around he gives me an attitude. He just makes me feel like s*** at times. He's a great fiancé don't get me wro...
Me and my hubby have decided that after our daughter is born we want to help a family out and carry their little one. I have always wanted to help a family that can’t have their own kids.
@chloemcmahon96 the men don't understand do they? They have it so easy! Xxxx
