How Did Having a Baby Cghange Your Life?
The most drastic change was the lack of sleep but also I was not prepared for all of the extra belongings I acquired for the baby and the mess that babies and toddlers make. What about you?

My husband and I were twenty and eighteen when our son came. It made us have to grow up really fast.

Goodness, I bet it did. I certainly wouldn't have been ready for the financial burden at that age let alone anything else.

Lots of changes

He brought much happiness into our lives
He gives us something to talk about and do together

On the other side

I have aged at least 5 years
No time to take care of myself

Time to myself. As much as I love my sons I never realized how much time to yourself is needed. That is what I miss the most. Just spending a couple hours alone. I wouldn't trade the boys for anything though.

I also miss Me time, and my hair is fast becoming greyer! I also find that I am no longer the laid back, calm person that I used to be. I am much more easily worried..oh yes...and tired.

I used to crave me time but now that my sons are approaching nursery age I am feeling saddened at the thought that they will not be with me all of the time.

I put my wants and needs and at time medical needs on hold to make sure she ahd what she needed.
HAvingh er made have to be more forceful and more self aware.. nwo thatshe is almost 20 i can go back to being a regular person. Its hard to balance teh two but its worth the adventure.

I was very young when I had my first child, and the major change that I experienced when I had my daughter was the great amount of time spent at home. I could not leave the house because I took care of my baby myself, and I was home all the time. I remember missing going out with friends, but when I tried it one time, I could not get my mind off my daughter and so I ended up going home earlier than everyone else.

It make us having less time alone together but I don't mind. After all, the baby is our end product of our relationships and it is a bundle of joys to us especially when you see their cute chubby face. I tell you their smile can melt anybody heart.
