Not taking sides & sticking up for anyone,all entitled to our opinions,but the main thing i see is that MAT's happy about it & they do their best for the baby which im sure they will.Even if they don't work out (touch wood it doesn't happen) then as long as they do everything they can to make the baby happy & make sure it's ok then everything can be all good. Anyway...On a happier,non argumentative note here's a few more pics.Sorry if i'm boring you all,i just can't help it i'm so proud & ecstatic at the moment biggrin.gif



Fantastic pics!

They also highlight one of the coolest things about babies, the toenails. You have these perfect little toes, and on each one, a tiny, perfect little toenail. The right shape and everything. It absolutely amazes me.

Honestly, I'm just asking because it seems a bit early into the relationship to have a planned child.

Also, Jesus, a guy doesn't reply immediately and is a coward?

And 'Sort of'. Does that just mean 'No but we'd discussed having a maybe one day perhaps in the future'?


Its really none of your business at the and of the day love.


If it's none of his business you may want to reconsider what you post on a public forum. It's not a dig, just an observation.


Just because i want to tell the world im pregnant doesnt mean it gives people the right to stick their noses in things that doesnt concern them.

Congratulations MAT, hope everything goes well with the pregnancy. I'm hoping my little sister has some similar news over the next couple of years. Don't want to put a downer on things but she's had 2 ectopics within the space of 18 months and now has no fallopian tubes so is now on the IVF waiting list. I would happily give up my child bearing abilities if it meant she could have children, even though I want kids eventutally. It's just been so heartbreaking to see her go through it, once was bad but the second time was devastating. Especially since the first time it all happened due due to NHS neglect. They told her she was pregnant and sent her home ignoring the fact that she had severe pain all down once side. 12 hours later she was having emergency surgery clinging onto her life. Could have all been avoided. On a more positive note things are looking good for the future, she has a very very good chance of getting pregnant and having a child through IVF. It's not the getting pregnant that's the problem it was getting it through the tube down into the womb but IVF should sort that for her. Bless her, she's totally my hero. She's been to hell and back over the past couple of years and is still smiling!!


Thats amazing, she must be so strong. i'm sending baby dust her way! lol

He only asked a question. With the amount of detail you post about your life on here I don't think this was out of order. If you don't want to answer, then just don't. Hopefully it's just your hormones.

Hope it all goes well for you anyway.

Edit - Thought I'd put a bit more in. I don't have kids, and I wouldn't want them yet. I'm 25 and I have a girlfriend of 2 years. I know I wouldn't be able to afford a kid and a mortgage at the same time just yet.

I didnt say it was out of order at all. I'm just surprised at all the 'too soon' comments. I dont think its too soon, and so what if it was a little too soon? It was a complete surprise and theyre acting as though this was an expected thing. And just because it was 'unplanned this soon' doesnt mean we shouldnt go for it does it?
Weezage
It was 'sort of' planned earlier. Make up your mind

And no-one is saying you shouldn't go for it. I was just confirming my suspicious it was an accident.

If you actually read and my post the first time round, you'd see that this WAS planned, it just happened a few months earlier than we expected. It wasnt an accident at all, otherwise the outcome would be bad, and its not bad at all its a good thing, therefore it was just a surprise not an accident.
And why does it matter to you anyway?

I think 8 months is FAR too soon to be planning a child with someone. I just don't think it's possible to know someone in that time. It's hardly new though. In the old days, couples would meet, be married within months, have kids within a year and half and then be married for 50 years. Madness!

I couldn't do it. I lived with my missus for 3 years before we married and even then it could have gone either way. We have a love-hate relationship. I love her, she hates me. It's hard to know someone until you live with them. Even after 7 years, I still find out little things about my wife and new things irritate me. The same applies vice versa too. After 8 months, we were all loved up, every moment was romantic, we had sex at every single possible opportunity, no matter where it was. You need to get past that honeymoon, experience the daily grind and if you can still stand to look at the other bastard person, then perhaps you are ready.

Then you have a baby and they change completely. Fuck.

I think alot of what is being said in this thread, doesn't really need to be said. Have your thoughts and negative opinions, but MAT is happy, and no one should be lowering the tone.

I probably feel more strongly about this right now than I usually would, and the reason is this:

Today, I went to the cremation of my cousins newborn baby. Little Charlotte was born two weeks ago, and today my family had to say goodbye to her, without ever having known her. She was brought to the crematorium in a white glass coach led by white horses, in a tiny pink coffin with a Tiara on top, surrounded by flowers in shapes of teddy bears, hearts, and butterflies.

Everyone was absolutely devastated and in tears, including me. My cousin and his girlfriend had written a beautiful speech that was read out, which was especially emotional. They will never get to show their baby off, take her to the park when she gets a little older, never get to be woken in the night by her crying which they so crave for right now. They have spent months preparing for her arrival, changing their lives to adapt to their surprise situation, and all they have left now are some photos and some baby clothes they put on her before she was taken away. Two people and their families have been left crushed, broken hearted, and inconsolable. If anyone deserved the chance to show how great they would have been as parents, it's them. They are an extremely mature, solid couple, with morals and good hearts. Now would it change your opinion if I said they were only 16?

I think some people need to gain a bit of perspective, and be happy for MAT. She is sharing some extremely joyful news, and quite frankly the negativity is pretty disgusting.
dopper
I think this topic, as well as the:
- "should I sunbathe topless?" topic which evolved into "is Richard right for me?",
- the "do any of you strangers want to hang out with me?" topic,
- and the "what sort of wedding should I have?" topic

... may have given some UKFFers the impression that MAT does indeed care about their/our thoughts on her personal life. But only if they compliment her.

Weezage
Yeah, I didn't quite get that either.

Jasmine, your story is extremely sad and it's terrible you had to go through that but I don't see the relevance?

The reason I asked about MAT is because she always appears to be ridiculously emotionally unstable. Nothing to do with age.

Opinion of them being "only 16 and not old enough to be good parents".

I'm just showing that sometimes baby news sometimes isn't all good, so for now why can't everyone just be nice about it. I don't understand why some people are so hell bent on putting a negative spin on things. I'm not trying to get involved in a huge arguement, I'm jus trying to provide a different perspective.

Had a bit of a scare last night,

I've been having the usual aches and cramps from all the growing, but last night about 9pm i had the biggest, most painful stabbing going across all of my lower tummy.
I had a bath and it seemed to calm down but then about 11pm it came back, and was so bad i couldnt move.
I called the IDOC out and he had a good poke around my belly, around this time i started being violently sick everywhere. He called maternity and from what i could make out they actually wanted me to come in, i wanted to go in too, but the IDOC said that he didnt think there was a need as if i was misscarrying, or had an ectopic baby the pain would only be in one particular side.

I wasnt very happy. He gave me some antiemetics and was on his way.

He said i should just get some rest and wait for my scan, which isnt until the 18th.
I slept today until about half 12, and just had the normal horrible disgusting sickness i get everyday, the pains are still there but no where near as bad.

Just sucks because i've got enough problems at work with begging them to renew my contract on the 31st of march without being off sick too!

Did anyone else have a similar experience?

Are you just posting in this thread to sh*t stir? Yeah so what if MAT has had a more colourful life then most? It doesn't mean shes unstable.

MAT, hope your ok and the pains have subsided a bit. If your in any doubt ring the doctor again or your midwife and see if they can bring your scan forward

Generally speaking 16 year olds aren't old enough to be good parents. If you aren't old enough to be a self sufficient person you aren't really old enough to think about being a parent (which includes plenty of older people as well). One of my dearest friends became a Mum at 16 and has been a fantastic parent even after her partner left her when their child was a couple of years old, partly because he couldn't cope with the responsibility. However, that still doesn't change my overall view.

Early on, we thought we had lost our baby. My wife went to the hospital with her sister for what we both thought was what they call a clean up job, but she rang me to tell me there was a very strong heartbeat! Sophie made her apearence 8 months later healthy and happy.

As long as you seek help if something doesent seem right, all has a good chance of getting better.
Kookoocachu
I'm livid right now.

Last night i had to call the doctor out again because of my sickness, not the pain, and allmost cried when i saw it was the same doctor sad.gif

He diagnosed me there and then with hypermises, great! im thinking, Now i can go to hospital, they give me IV fluids and i'll be fine, which is what usually happens with hyprmesis as your body has lost alot of fluid and you can keep any down if you take it orally.

NOPE!!!! he just wanted me to 'try and eat and drink and see how i feel in the morning.'
TRY AND EAT AND DRINK!!??? what the hell does he think i've been doing!?!?!?!?

So my first errand of this morning was christening the porcelin throne with my puke, projectile this morning, i pat myself on the back for effort.
I call the doctors surgery when it opens at 8:30 and speak to a doctor who i havent seen for years, but hey, after this idiot ive been having, i dont care.

She told me to just sip tiny little amounts often and to see if i could sleep, so if i did have to go into hospital i'd have a little bit of energy, and that if i'm sick again, or feel any more faint than i do now to go straight to A&E.

I wweighed myself this morning and i thought i was getting quite heavy, with me showing allready and before i got the sickness, i was eating everything in sight, but i've actually lost half a stone sad.gif my collars so boney its gross sad.gif

Bleh sad.gif i've really had enough of this allready. All my friends are telling me how they loved being pregant, and how their hair grew and their skin was glowing....

Make sure you mention to your doctor's about the weight loss. Also mention if you had any major illnesses when you were younger.

You've probably done this already, but it's something close to my heart. My sister lost her baby as a result of complications arising from the fact she had viral meningitis when she was younger. Unfortunately, there was no obvious reason for her problems, but she lost over a stone while she was pregnant.

Your body is just getting used to the change, thats why you are feeling crappy at the moment. Just chill, let the things happen, and you will feel so much better.

MAT,if for whatever reason you haven't got teh confidence in your doc,& you feel somethings not quite right go to the hospital,either ante natal or A&E(not sure if different hospitals work differently,but towards the end at least with the high blood pressure we went straight to antenatal) you can't take any chances & if they're any good they won't mind you going.Better safe than sorry.

Rant time!

ok so, mid January i was offered the job of my dreams, and of course i took it.
It was only a 3 months contract but my boss, the ward Sister, said that it was highly likley they would keep me on, providing i dont go off sick etc.
I started on the 28th of Jan, i found out i was pregnant on the 25th.

I decided that i wasnt going to tell them until the 3rd month, so that i would have a chance to prove how hard i work and how good i am at my job so that even though i was pregnant they would keep me on.

Everything was going fine until my hyperemesis started sad.gif i've been off work since monday.
I'm having to go back and forth to hospital and how i havent been spotted by a colleague remains a mystery.

I still cant bring myself to tell work. There are people that know, but none of the higher ups.

I'm so screwed. I know i've lost my job.

On thursday i asked the doctors whilst i was in hospital when i would be able to go back to work. I know she didnt mean to be nasty, but it kinda hurt at the time. She laughed out loud and told me to not even think about work for some time. And i could tell that meant a 'long' time sad.gif

I know that half of the way im feeling is down to hormones, but that doesnt stop me from crying non stop about this.
I just want to stop throwing up and be able to drink and eat something sad.gif i want to go back to work and make other people feel better sad.gif
