I need to vent.. Im getting upset...Again.. I just feel so out of it!! I am starting to feel like im not going to be enough for my son.. And that he deserves better like maybe a home where they were ready in their lives, prepared finanically and everything ya know? I mean I work full time , make decent money, I work for gm service parts center.. I am busting my health question for my son but I feel like its never enough. And I feel bad because I know he most likely wont have a good father. I just feel bad..Ive heard its normal to feel like this during pregnancy sometimes? But I hate it. I hate feeling like this.


Also..I feel like I miss being a teenager ya know? Like goin out, the partying, etc etc. I know having my son will be such more of a blessing tho.. But sometimes it gets to my head.Last night I went to a wedding and reception and there were so many young guys there, you know ages 20-25 range especially and b4, I would have no problem talking to the guys and wouldve met some or 1 ya know? But last nite I just thought the whole time ''why would they be interested in me when theres all these other girls my age that arent pregnant?" and I also felt stupid like I always do, bein the preg girl at the party. So I only danced a little bit and felt stupid doing it the whole time. My parents kept asking me why I looked so down and that a reception is supposed to be fun. (it was my cousins reception) what is wrong with me? I dont wanna become a gloomy-depressed person! Maybe its just a normal stage we go through.. Thanks~

I'm sorry kari, but no youre not turning into a depressed gloomy person, its fine to vent and even though I cant totally understand where you are coming from I can see that it can be a frustrating thing, besides weddings can be depressing sometimes. Give yourself credit for what you are doing for you son, youre doing pretty damn good from what you tell us and that is your best so keep doing it and hang in there and dont feel guilty for saying you want to be a teenager again, youre being honest but stay in there ok? And there are guys that wouldnt mind that you have a son already...

Keep your pretty head up kari! And about weddings, I went to one last week and I saw my ex there with his health question new girlfriend who he claims to be inlove with even though theyve only been together for a month and weve been apart for less than two...He hopes shes the one blah blah blah but I took a different approach, a little champagne, a lot of corona and one hot security guard took my mind of them Laughing

joshie doesnts need a loser father he needs his mother who is doing a health question good job at doing your best for him

Kari dont feel so down. Its just the hormones. I know I go through it too! Like at hurricane harbor I felt like crying because I couldnt do anything but sit with the kids! Everyone was having fun and I was in the river lol. And I saw these other girls the other day that I went to school with and they were all skinny and pretty and shopping and I was there getting mail for my work looking like a bum because of morning sickness and I felt so bad because they had alot and I was there pregnant and stuff. But oh well. I think back and I will have more anyways. Im married and will have a great baby while they are stuck in highschool life. Lol. Just cheer up ok! I try to and you should because you will make a great mommy!!! Youll see
