    18 is a little young to be having a baby, but i guess it's better than having one when you're 14. Good luck!

    My mom had me at 13.

    Awww geez, what a bunch of Negative Nellies! First of all, congratulations, and best of luck to you!

    My daughter was born when I was 17 and I don't regret a single second of it. I did marry her dad, but we divorced 6 years later. My kidlet is now 46 and has been married for 25 years, blessing me with two wonderful grandchildren. As it turns out, she was the only baby I was ever able to have and we've had a wonderful life! I did remarry and have been with my hubs for 39 years...he legally adopted my daughter and I also became "Mom" to his three children from a previous marriage. Their biological mom didn't want them.

    All four kids are now old farts, but they are MY old farts! I am also grandma to 10.

    Life....has a way of working out. It's all in the way you look at it.

    Again, Congrats!

    One of the best pieces of advice I got was this...if the baby is going to sleep in a crib, put a waterproof crib pad on the mattress, then a sheet, then another waterproof crib pad, then another sheet. if he/she spits up in the middle of the night, or has a diaper blow out, all you have to do is rip off the top sheet and pad and you have a fresh, clean sheet underneath. No changing that pain in the butt crib sheet in the middle of the night. :-)

    WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THIS WHEN I HAD BABIES?!? :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

    I have no babies for the foreseeable future, but I WILL remember this to pass on to the gaggle of pregnant friends I have.

    LOL! I had a HORRIBLE Aunt Nellie and she deserves every negative in the book! A truly dreadful woman! :bigsmile:

    Thank you, Lisa 1971! I made up my mind several years ago that I would not be the old granny who gets her hair done every week the exact same way, lives in polyester pantsuits and big floral muumuus, and does crafts. (I couldn't craft to save my *kitten*!)

    Nope, I'm a runner. I still rock my skinny jeans and 5" heels, I try to find humor in everything and a day is not complete if I don't have a laugh attack, and I'm healthier now than I was 30 years ago!

    Strength and patience for you.

    Another piece of advice that I followed with my second pregnancy:

    Babycenter is a horrible, horrible place full of angry women who give horrible advice. Stay away from there. It's horrible.

    Horrible.
