Subject: Re: Confused , upset , disappointed Author: Kris [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10/29/07 4:02pm In reply to: Kris 's message, "Confused , upset , disappointed" on 10/18/07 3:36pm Hey everyone ... thanks for all the advice given to me . I told the father 2 wks ago that I decided to keep the baby . He wasnt happy at first but he has come to the terms and it getting excited still scared of course , which is fine , BUt ok with it. But for the week I been excited , then scared , then nervous , then not sure if im making the right choice , then excited again , and my emotions just keep going from one way to the other. I am so not sure at this point if im doing the right thing by having this baby. Im so confused and so scared. I dont know what is wrong with me . Happy and excited on minute and then later thinking about if its the right thing. Im so scared to be alone with a baby. I already have a 4 yr old son and the father left when he was 6 months old hasnt helped or come around since then. I been alone for 4 yrs and im scared I cant do it again ... I cant have 2 kids by myself. I dont know what to do about these crazy feelings im having . Like i said one minute im so excited and then the next not sure at all. Please give me some advice . Thanks girls [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

If you are taking your prenatal vitamins, that should help. Also, stay away from sugar and artificial sweeteners, and monosodium glutimate. You are a lot stronger than you think! One of the advantages of having two children is that they will entertain each other and give you a little time for whatever you need it for. You have a baby, and your baby is depending on you for your protection. Always remember that, and you should be fine. Even if your boyfriend eventually vanishes, there are good men out there who will cherish all three of you. If you make yourself available in that case, one of them can find you. You have plenty of time to prepare emotionally. That's why we women are pregnant for nine months. :) You have already done it once, so you can do it again. Hang in there. It gets better. You will be more settled as you go along. By the time your baby is born, you will be ready. Thanks so much for the update! Hugs, Pat
