  • I wanted children sooooo badly and going through infertlity treatments I had lots of time to prepare so, YES!!
  • Definitely not. I had some post-partum issues and also did not know what the hell I was doing. But I caught on!
  • yes...but what you have to do is not easy..you do it because you would do anything for your kids
  • yeah it came really easy you just get this bond and know what to do aswell its a great feelin scary at first but you get there in the end
  • No..I was 17 and my husband turned into a real jerk. I had to grow up fast.
  • I struggled as a new mom for a lot of reasons and I wanted kids so badly. I think it was hard because I was a single parent, got no help financial or any other way from his father. i had to go back to work when he was 3 weeks old which stressed me out really bad and caused a lot of extra health problems for me. I felt like a bad mom for not spending it with him but I couldn't.
  • Yes, I know it's different for everyone. But it was one of the happiest times of my life and even though I was scared to death, it came very naturally. :)
  • Oh hell no. That's why I had my Mommy to help. Thank God.
  • I was 17 and alone at that time, I wouldn't say it was easy but natural. My son gave me strength enough and I thank him for all that, I am very proud of him.
  • Noooo....and I had had a lot of experience helping to raise a much younger sibling!
  • No ~ i couldn't even acknowledge i was going to be a mother ~ let alone act like one. I was just a kid having a kid and had never even seen a real baby until i was forced to go to the hospital to have one and i felt scared to death and very unimpressed with the whole process. With support and encouragement I got my head sorted out in a couple of days, fell truly madly deeply in love with that little child of mine and to this day, still feel extremely blessed to have her in my life :))
  • yeah I love babies. I had my first as a teen and was surprised how easy it was.
  • Nope, with my first every single day was a struggle, it didn't help that we had breastfeeding problems non-stop for the first three months. Hormones, Colic, maybe a TON of contributing factors despite the fact I had a wonderful Husband at my side and lots of family support I found it very difficult. NOW with a toddler and a baby life is easier than ever :D I think it took about 6-9 months before I felt human again
  • Incredibly difficult. My penis keeps getting in the way... :) Seriously, bless all you mothers out there, especially the new ones. You have a job that's every bit as important as any other job can possibly be, if not more so, and it's hard work. You don't get enough recognition for it either, as a rule. So, here's to mother's everywhere!
  • It was hard at first for me until I got my child on a regular schedule and it became easier.
