Ladies, a few reminders....

This thread is for chatting about TTC & parenthood as a young parent. If you please stick to the topic you wouldn't be flying through threads so quickly.

Also, if you think of something else to add once you have posted & no-one has posted after you yet, please edit your previous post. It slows the thread down & I don't have to go through editing posts to merge them together.

Please read this thread before posting "First / Second" etc posts as they will be removed.

And finally, even if the mods miss something, they will find it eventually. No use make jokes that as long as the mods don't see it, it's ok. We are busy mums working on a volunteer basis. For example the thread mods in this particular forum are quite busy at the moment - one is studying almost fulltime at uni, one is preparing for an overseas trip next week & another is seven months pregnant. Give us some credit. We do the best that we can.

If anyone has any issues with this, please contact me OFF the forum, via PM or email (my username at bellybelly.com.au).

Hi there!!

I'm in Lara (near geelong) so not too far away. We've got two girls from ballarat, one from bendigo and one from pakenham (cant remember the other melb girls, sorry) so a fair few around you.

We can't pm you yet as you don't have fifty posts - but if you chuck your msn in your profile a lot of us are often online at once and we can talk there!

**Early Kids** · March 13th, 2008, 08:44 AM

Goodmorning

Welcome mummytobe_2b! Congratulations on the birth of a beautiful bouncing baby boy

I have a lil man(Brendan) born @30wks, who is now 12.5 months

Well, today i'm going to my young mothers group, i was going to take Brendan to dance, but it starts in just over an hour... and i'm not dressed, Brendan has gone back to sleep and we live 30 mins from town lol.

Actually I should book him in for his CHN check soon. middle of the month again.... hmmmm.

Welcome Tara!!

**[M]umma[M]ia** · April 22nd, 2008, 09:04 AM

grrrrrrr why do people look down at u when u say ur pregnant and they find out ur only 20??? its really irritating me. Its like so wat we are a younger couple and been together since i was 16. When they find out we have been together since i was 16 they look down at me too....but they dont know my situation. Why are people so quick to judge? is 20 really that young?? ive been TTC for 2 years and now i feel like i have this hanging over me coz of what other ppl think. sorry i just had to vent.
