Q: I'm New

Hello. I just stumbled across this site and thought I might join. I'm mandy. I'm 18 years old (so I guess I barely fit into this teen pregnancy forum, but we'll just pretend, I guess.) i'm almost 37 weeks pregnant, due february 2nd. I'm pretty much stuck to the couch for the next 3 weeks, so... I'd love to have someone to chat with. I also have a few concerns about giving birth and I since i'm this close to the end, I wouldn't mind having someone around who's been through it. It's a little awkward talking to my mom, you know? Anyway... Nice to meet you all.

Welcome!

I'm bridget and I don't fit into the teen forums at all (i'm 28!) but I kick around anyway. There are a lot of us that aren't teens that post here. Everyone crosses over between the teen preg and pregnancy forums so feel free to post in both. Anyway, I have a 2 month old son named finn.


Do you know what you're having? Hang in there, not much longer!

To all who asked, i'm having a baby boy. My boyfriend (his father) and I are planning to name him owen matthew, matthew being his fathers name and owen being... Well, just a name we both really liked! Haha. As of now, we don't really have a birth plan, per say... Pretty much just going to take it as it comes. I would have liked to have gone naturally, but I have a feeling i'll be getting that epidural because just dealing with bh contractions was crappy enough for me... I don't want to think about the real thing! Lol

Welcome .Mandy! Mr.
Green

i'm .Zanny, i'm 17 (well i'm 18 in two weeks!) and I have a 7 week old daughter called .Jennifer.

I love the name you chose for your baby boy.. If I had been having a boy, I would have named him .Matthew!

Feel free to ask anything about labour and birth.. There are lots of girls on here who'd be happy to share their stories.
