And another thing I never had was the internet, all the support that is available is huge.
I was never one for Mother and baby clubs… I hated other mums!
Unless I was already friends with someone who was pregnant I just was not interested in meeting new ones purely because Id had a baby, and all the ones I used to see down the clinic were a lot older than me and I felt they looked down their noses at me.
That was a huge mistake on my part, and looking back I wished I had partaken in some of the services available, rather than trying to struggle on our own. Just because your young doesnt give others the right to make you feel like they are better than you. Dont make the same mistakes.
The internet would have been perfect for me to ask those questions that your dying to know the answers to.
Kenty, I had a googleup and found this was one of the best forums I could find, though you may have already come across it:
http://www.babyandbump.com/
Not only does it have support for before during and after pregnancy, it has sections for finance help and support too, so it may be worth having a lurk around there, and even joining up and finding others to share your experiences with, and maybe get the support you need.
But… dont leave us now will you :wink:
Best wishes xx
