    Angeliz- I hope you are doing okay hun. Make sure you pop into some of the single parent forums when you need some advice or if you are feeling stressed or down. Just remember you are a strong woman and I am sure your little ones are very lucky to have a mum like you who is determined enough to stick to her guns in what she wants. Congratulations on your twins as well. x

    hey everyone
    i am new to the site and found it researching endo.
    i am 19 and have just been told my fertility could be decreased due to my endo.
    i am now considering starting a family with my partner of 4 and a bit years but am worried about what my mum will say as i am her only child who has gotten into uni.
    i want to be a mum more than anything and would start TTC right now if it wasnt for other peoples opinions, i no its my decision but i care what my mum thinks
    ...my partner think we should just try and say it was a accident

    If it helps I know plenty of mums that study at uni. Uni will always be there to go to or study at part time. If your fertility is at risk and it is something that you really want to do then you are right - it is yours and your partners decision. (Your DP is right though- you could always say it was an accident if you are worried about your mums reaction) Good luck hun!

    Welcome to BB Ashli
    If its what you want and you are in a position to do it then go for it, but make sure you weigh up the pros and cons. I had my DD at 17 and i wouldnt change it for anything, i went back to TAFE for 1.5 yrs and i'm having another break to have DD#2. I think if its what you want then do it, with your endo it could take you some time to conceive anyway so in a way its best to get started now.
    Good luck, feel free to add me to msn if ya wanna chat (cool_chicadee@hotmail.com)

    Im from the uk actually. Yer im due may 10th approx, havent had scan yet. Its great to hear the stories of other young couples coping, gives me reasurance . DP came down for the day on weds and stayed ova nite, he goes to uni in wales 250 miles away, we met whilst he was on his summer hols. He was really sweet and kept talking to my stomach, mostly saying be a boy! be a boy! I told him it was to late to tell bubs wat 2 be, but he couldnt be discouraged . xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hi Cassie, nice to meet you.
    I would def class you as a young mum, anyone up to 25 is.

    You know what??

    I really admire all of you girls.

    I was too scared to have a baby when I was married at 23. My DH and I were married for 7 years before I had DS. Now I wish I had him back then. We didn't because we were scared both mentally and of what the financial implications were... dunno why.... that's all hindsight now. We were worried about being good parents - which we are, because we love our son more than our own lives.

    One of my friends (who was 28 with a son in high school) said to me, if you're waiting to be financially secure, you'll never have children. She was right - that's why I had Daniel. I asked, "What am I waiting for here?"

    Just thought I'd say anyway. I'll be 33 giving birth if this littlie sticks.

    I admire your guts and your decision to have children early. If I knew then what I know now! Boy oh boy! I'd have a clan!!!

    Thanks Lestpuss, although my first wasnt planned i wouldnt take her back for the world, we thought about waiting to try for #2 until we had more money a house of our own etc, but we figured we've already got one so we might as well have them closer together and then do all that stuff a lil later.
    Best of luck in your pregnancy and wishing you all the best.

    hi angeliz, i was just wondering when is it possible to find out if you're having twins?
    I'm only 7 weeks pg at the moment but twins run on both sides of our family and it's out generations turn! so quite curious to see what's in store for us! ><;;

    Hi Teagz, im sure when you have your 12wk u/s (if you have one) or your dating scan (if you need one) that you'll find out then.
    I always wanted twins but after having Alyssa i dont think i could handle two at a time. lol
