| Due early 2021. She’s so young! |
| I was 21 when I had my oldest. I had so much energy to play with my kid and her friends loved that I actually played with them all and didn’t get tired or hurt the way their moms did. I had my second kid older and it was so different. I still made the effort to run around, but my body hurt the next day. |
| A honeymoon baby? |
| How long has she been married? One minute? did she get pregnant immediately or was she already pregnant? |
| Wonderful news. She will be an awesome mom. |
| well that was fast! haha |
| My sister had a kid at 21 (unmarried). Actually I know a lot of people from childhood who did at that age or younger. |
| These threads remind me that people on here live in a bubble! |
Their moms were tired or hurt and your body hurt the next day after running after a kid? A healthy 35 or 40 year old woman should NOT be tired and hurt after running after a kid. If that is case, you should see a doctor to assess your health because something is very wrong. |
LOLLL these older moms are 40, not 80. Plenty of 40 year old women run marathons. If you're tired and hurt the next day after running around after a kid, you need to see a trainer and/or a doctor. That's not normal or healthy. |
| That's really not uncommon among non-college-educated women to have kids around 20/21. |
No she won't. She's a one trick wonder. She'll force the damn kid to pray to her god Steve, force the kid to only ever wear those damn khaki uniforms and refuse to allow the kid to have any interests that don't involve the zoo or animals. This explains why she rushed that wedding so damn hard. |
Well if YOUR SISTER did it then it must be the best idea ever. No. Nobody should be having kids until their pre-frontal cortex has finished developing, and they've had time to figure out who they are as an ADULT. And especially once you've gotten married - you should take time to solidify your marriage and figure out who you are as a husband/wife before adding a baby to the mix. |
How are you getting hurt? |
I never said it was a good idea. Its going quite poorly actually. But its very, very common. I think people should wait until they are financially and emotionally able to, but I am NOT one of those ''They have to be married first!" types. |
