As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hmm...
I say you should use protection when having sex with your bf at the moment, so you don't get pregnant before your holiday. It doesn't seem like the best time to be TTC.
If you're pregnant already, you're just gonna have to refrain from going on rides I'm afraid!
But yeah, use protection atm, and start trying when you're back from your trip. That's my advice  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I agree, use protection for the moment coz if you want a baby this holiday will probably be the last chance for a while, especially if both you and your fella are still at school/college.
Personally I feel you're mad for wanting a child so young, but if its the right decision for you go for it - after your hols!!!! lol
Good Luck on your journey and wishing you loads of babydust for when you need it xxxx |

Lol. i know, i bet alot of people will say that to me. But i know its what i want, me and my boyfriend that is.
Ive always knew from a young age ive wanted to be a young mum. I was just scared that i wouldnt find the right partner, or be able to cope with it. But ive had to cope with alot of stress and problems growing up, and everyone now tells me how mature and strong and responsible i am as a person. Being with my boyfriend, he just makes me a completely different person. We were together for 18 months, then i split with him for personal reasons for a few months then we got back together again, and we're stronger than ever. he just makes me so happy. I can act with him how i cant with no-one else, and i mean no-one else, including my parents, my best friends, no-one.
A baby would mean so much to us. I know its not all about having a baby, i now its very very hard work, a commitment for the rest of your life and a huge responbility. But im ready, i know i am. No, WE are ready. Im currently working and just about to take my gcses, and my boyfriend is just currently looking for a job to helpsupport me. We've spoke about it for months and months but never gone ahead with it because of school, and finances, ect ect. But nowwe are leaving school and getting jobs, we feel we are ready. Of course, the baby wont have the best life because we arnt earning an amazing income, but we will haev enough money to live and treat our baby, and with the love and happiness we could give the baby, i feel thats completely enough.
The thought of being pregnant just amazes me. I constantly sit here and rub my belly and still get amazed how i will soon have a baby growing in there. Even the morning sickness, tiredness, back pains, whatever doesnt put me off the idea. i know its going to be horrible to get them, but i know its all for a good cause so that beats it anyday. | | | | Status: Offline

There are several issues to consider when going to an amusement park while pregnant.
The first concern, and perhaps the most overlooked, is the risk of physical exhaustion and dehydration. If you go to an amusement park while pregnant, make sure to take it easy and keep full of lots of fluids.
There are certain rides you should avoid at an amusement park while pregnant. These typically are roller coasters and spinning rides, or rides with jerky movements. Many parks will actually prohibit a pregnant woman from riding such rides. Disney, Six Flags, Busch Gardens and even your local state fair all pose warning signs not to ride certain rides during pregnancy. The danger with these types of rides is that the rigorous activity on these rides creates additional jarring forces within the uterus that may lead to premature separation of the placenta from the wall of the uterus, which is called placental abruption.
During pregnancy may be the time to enjoy some of the less physically stressful features in a park, such as exhibits and shows.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Oh my...
Your a bit young, How are you going to support the baby financially? Home wise? Can you afford to rent somewhere, pay council tax, food, tv and all baby stuff too on your own, or are you planning on using handouts?
My husband and I can only just afford to do it and we both work full time, and earn 35k between us. I dont think you have thought this through properly. Maybe when you and boyf are full time with your own space.. then that might be a good time.
xxx best of luck with everything xxx |
