You are welcome to email me dwatters14@hotmail.com, I am 26 and just had a baby boy on July 12Th here is my advice: get the epidural, don't feel like it makes you weak, try not to dwell on it now, don't worry about labor till you get to the hospital, during labor keep telling yourself that soon have the most beautiful baby. I can tell you I had 3 hrs of active labor before they got me the epidural the pain is not as bad as the horror stories that everyone wants to tell you, but I wont lie it was bad. The strange thing about labor pain is once you hold that new baby in you arms you cant remember the pain(I tried).

Remember it has to be worth it otherwise there wouldn't be any families out there with more than one kid!!!!

I would have to say, get educated. Educated on what it is like to be a new mom. Late night feeding, baby crying for any reason etc. I say this because it can be so overwhelming to any mom.any age.single or married. Baby's are a true blessing, a wonderful gift and a joy to have. Cherish every minute because time goes so fast. just remember that all the feelings you are having now and the new ones you will have are normal. I would say that if you are in school or college try to continue that. It will be hard to do but take abit of time for you and your baby and then continue your education. Look forward to your babies arrival and enjoy your preg. in the meantime. Good luck!!

oh honey, you'll be fine, dont worry that can only hurt you and the baby, and we cant have that now can we,
let me guess your scared of the pain, I wont lie to you, you'll feel it but if your husband and family are there it wont be that bad.
I suggest you do la-mass class and learn how to breath it helps,
and dont worry about what to do when the baby's born because your maternal instints will pick up were you left off and do the rest for you.
we are all bit scared the first time, i suggest you choose adoctor your very comfortanle with and take it from there,
now I've rambled enough if you want to talk just send amessage.

i was 18 when i got pregnant and i was nurvious but excited. you might want to try pain meds, it helps, i used the iv method and it worked great for me... i had a little girl 8lbs5.4oz ..... make sure when you wipe her when you change her diaper you wip in one direction only and thats down wards..... it helps prevent your baby from getting a uti
