i thought i'd put this in helathy parenting cause that's what I want to be, a healthy parent...a kind, loving, patient, hands on mommy.....
I'm tired of living the 'selfish..' life I want to always think of someone ELSE first... I'm 35 and feel my biological clock ticking....well, my period is a day late and I'm wondering whether I'm pregnant.....not sure what my boyfriend would say....or my parents for that matter....nervous about how I would tell everybody, or just wait till they see or guess.. I guess my 'red friend' could still arrive here anyday, yet I DO long for something more in this life, before it's too late........

why worry about what your parents are going to say as you are 35, why not discuss it with your b/f to see if he is interested in having a baby, and plan it

My parents have a way of using power over me to get what they want.....say they will cut me off financially if I don't get an abortion, my Dad is my landlord he could force me to move, my step mother she will chastise me she is evil, they will say they won't help watch the kid or throw me a shower or help with money issues......

IMO - If you cannot have this child and take care of it with out your parents help then mayeb now is not the time for you to bring a child into this world.
What do YOU? |

How long has it been since you have been able to take care of your self? - has it been long enough to take care of another human being.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
