20 and pregnant as Hell
I’m lucky to have a great partner who has a son and is a great dad I’ve witness him being a great dad and his son is extremely mature. We are very much in love me and my partner and he has a niece he fosters because her mother is unable to properly care for her she’s very sweet. I know I’m young as *** and he’s 13 years older we get judged a lot but the people who know him well know he’s very good to me and we’re very happy and he doesn’t take advantage of me. I have mild autism and obsessive compulsive disorders both diagnosed and it makes everything really hard I am always in some sort of pain sure a lot of ladies will relate it’s only been a few weeks but my body is changing so rapidly and my stomach feels hard and I’ll still be 20 when I deliver my baby who will beloved no matter what will be the most beautiful baby to me and my partner but I am very scared and today was the first time I genuinely panicked when I felt how hard my stomach was it all feels so real now. I’m doing everything I’m supposed to do I quit smoking which was hard but it is a newer thing because I recently moved in with my bf. We weren’t careful and knew pregnancy was a possibility I know I’ll get judged I get it but luckily we both have more than enough money to properly care for our baby. I’m really really scared excited super happy but also terrified. Would love to talk to anyone who’s kind enough to let me vent.

Hey there 💕
First of all, massive congrats on the upcoming bundle of joy!!!
I have no remotely similar personal experience to be able to relate to you but I've heard that a first child is a very big change in a person's life. I know this might be a stressful and tiring time for you but my mom tells me every ounce of fatigue from the past 9 months absolutely vanishes when you hold your child for the first time.
I also know that you'll be a fantabulously amazing mother. Your post shows that you care about your upcoming baby and its well-being. You have thought about how good of a father your partner is and you have stopped smoking in the interest of your little one's health. That shows initiative, and that shows love. And those are the prime ingredients in the making of a good mother.
I wish you and your family the best of luck and the best of health.
May you have a healthy, lovely, beautiful baby, and may they grow up to be a blessing for you.
Would love to keep hearing from you!
