Thank you so much for replying! I just have a couple questions for you though. Were you in pain everyday? And if so, what did you do for work? I can't seem to find a job that I can actually do, I even have a job working from home at the moment and there are days I can't even get up out of bed to do anything. My boyfriend also doesn't want to have children just yet, but I do. My only fear is I have them and I can't work to take care of them. I do think that everything would work itself out and I would be a lot happier if I had children, but how do I convince my boyfriend? I'm 21, I know I have a circumstance that makes my situation a bit different but do you think I'm too young to have children?

Hi Joylnn,

No I did not have pain everyday, but some days were doozies (funny word), and one thing I clearly remember was that I didn't have pain for long stretches like I do now.  After each child I did go into a downward spiral with my pain, I mean litterly the minute after birth, the pain came tumbling down. And of course having a new baby you can become exhausted. You know things were much different back then, we didn't have a computer in our home to look up all the bad things that could happen to you if you got real sick. I guess having my

Hello Joylnn, I hope you had a mostiful morning , cause they liike

 daughter at the age of 20 seemed a perfect age back then. I did a home daycare for a couple of kids in the neighborhood, but my main job was being a full time mom. My husband was the sole provider and it worked very well for us. We learned early on that we wanted a home we needed to save up and that, our partying days were over. I wanted to share the weekends with my new family not going out all night partying. The minute you know for sure you are pregnant, nothing else mattered. I was a stay at home mom and I also did in home daycare, I also was a contractor for a small company using, so I always hand my hand in something that could make me a few bucks! LOL Whalen

This post was hacked into, please disregard.

I thought it was a bit strange haha. What was it supposed to say?

Hi Jolynne,

I am so sorry about that....really strange, I have no idea how that happened. The upper part was correct, I was a career stay at home mom and for the most part LOVED every aspect of it. I was a daycare operator too, and that way I was able to stay at home and make a little money at the same time. As to your other question as to how did I get my husband to want kids, well I pretty much had the say in that department, he never objected and was happy when I delivered the news. My daughter is a single mom so I wouldn't wish that on anybody, so please make sure you are both ready for the long haul. I wish you all the best. Take care.
