I need mom advice, I took a dollar store pregnancy test and it came back positive...I am worried that I will be a terrible mother if I have another. I already have two girls, how will I be able to handle 3 kids? I am so afraid to tell my family and friends. Idk what to do or say. I don't have a big enough place for what will be the 5 of us.
@kami24706 renting nowadays is more expensive than a mortgage. But getting a decent home with a nice mortgage isnt easy either. Its expensive to live. We spend so much money on small grocery trips and we only have 10 items. Everything is skyrocketing. I am so deathly scared of getting pregnant again. I want another but i know that its just not the right time and we own a large enough home. Im sorry i wasn't going after you or trying to hurt your feelings. You will get through it and make it work, nothing in life is easy. Kids are both the hardest and most incredible challenges in life 💕
@vvrobinson I know it wasn't my plan to get pregnant and that is on me, I understand that. I guess mostly what I was looking for was to hear that it will be okay, as a means to keep my head up. I take full responsibility of my little ones and want the best for them. I have two classes before I receive my degree, and nothing is stopping me. I know the world is cruel and that the expenses are outrageous for houses especially with how old they are and some I have seen even don't have fire safety involved. My sibling told me for her apartment they are making her pay more than a home and she knows this because of friend who have houses. We have a lot saved for a home, but I am not risking losing it to the market. We have read that there should be another drop in pricing, just have to wait. I have looked into my options and found that buying a property and placing a house on it is three times cheaper than buying a home right now. It's sad, but it's true. I guess what I am trying to say is I am not giving up. Thank you for being hard on me.
Thank you, @shellbell0391 , @mmgarcia81 , @ivegot10 , and @kellyjc , it really means a whole lot to me, I am looking into places and I am so close to my degree as a graphic designer. I just want to be able to be a mom they're proud of and be able to have a nice place for them. Thank you again everyone.
I thought the same thing when I got pregnant. How am I gonna do this? How am I gonna afford a baby? He was TOTALLY unplanned. I even took the plan b pill to try and avoid a pregnancy. But he’s here lol and we’re making it work. Things have a way of working out.
@vvrobinson, damn I’m pretty sure she’s got some valid concerns and worries no need to shame her. Sheesh
congratulations things will work out for you. that doesn't make u a bad mom at all.
Unfortunately not all of us are perfect and have self doubt sometimes.It’s normal to feel these emotions when it’s a surprise pregnancy. I promise a year from now you won’t be able to imagine your life without your new baby. Congratulations! and who cares what anyone else thinks
Just relax take it easy you got this
