ParticipantWell, you know how I feel, my dear….but I will post here also…I am so happy for you and Josh, and I’m continuing to pray for your back and your health, so that you will be able to carry this wonderful gift that God has blessed you with. IM me and let me know how your doing and how your feeling, OK?

ParticipantWhat is your heart telling you? Are you the one looking at adoption? Or is it your parents?
I’m sure it has to be so hard, being 19 and soon to have 4 children, plus working AND going to school. I couldn’t imagine. One question I have is this…what are you going to school for? And is it something that you could finish online? I know alot of people that have finished their schooling that way…High Schoolers, College age AND even some older people.
If you are thinking about adoption, what are your honest thoughts about it? Is it something that you could do without any regrets? If it is, they do have Open Adoptions…that is where the birth mother is able to stay involved in the childs life…here is an awesome site that I have been checking out, as my husband and I are considering adoption…..www.planlovingadoptions.org……..it does both adoptions…closed and open. Please let me know your thoughts and fears…if you would comment me back on my space.
Blessings, Roxanneroxannes_legacy
ParticipantI haven’t been through what you have and are going through right now. But what I would encourage you to do is to talk about it. Whether it’s finding a Mentor on here or maybe there is someone you are close to where you live…If you are involved with a Church, maybe even your Pastor….but either way, talk about it. Don’t bottle it up inside of you. By doing that, it becomes a bitter poison that eventually ends up eating us up.
If you want, I would be willing to be that listening ear that you need right now.

ParticipantI found this website for you: http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/pregnancy/prenatalhealth/204.html
And I found the pain symptom that I was talking about. I hope this helps some.
Round ligament pain
Round ligament pain is generally a brief, sharp, stabbing pain or a longer-lasting, dull ache that you may feel on one or both sides of your lower abdomen or deep in your groin, usually starting in your second trimester. It happens when the ligaments that support your uterus in your pelvis stretch and thicken to accommodate and support its growing size.You may feel a short jabbing sensation if you suddenly change position, such as when you’re getting out of bed or up from a chair or when you cough, roll over in bed, or get out of the bathtub. Or you may feel a dull ache after a particularly active day, if you’ve been walking a lot or doing some other physical activity. Call your caregiver if this discomfort continues even after you’ve rested.

ParticipantAlot of times that is just your body stretching and stuff for the baby. I had the same pains and that is what my doctor told me. And recently a dear friend of mine was going through the same thing and she was maybe about a week ahead of you. Her doctor said the same. I really wouldn’t worry to much about it unless they really start increasing in pain.

ParticipantWell 1st, you need to go get a blood test. That will give a more accurate answer. But I know after I had my son, I bled very heavy for a few weeks, but since I was b/f I didn’t have a period for about 6 months. My breasts got very sore because Ben was having problems latching on and so he was making them very sore. I started putting ‘bag balm’ on them to help with the pain. As for the itchiness, that could be from your breasts being more fuller with milk. You might try putting a lotion on inbetween feedings that has vitamin E, or is meant to help with stretch marks.

ParticipantWow, that has to be so hard, honey. Especially being only 3 months along. Have his parents tried talking with your grandparents? Has your b/f came and sat and talked with them? If that has happened or is not a good idea to happen right now, I would like to encourage you to listen to them, but maybe you, yourself, sit down with them and have a real serious talk with them. Hear what they have to say and their reasoning, and by doing this, they may hear what you have to say and your reasoning also.

ParticipantWow, what a story..and a wonderful testimony. Praise God that you didn’t consider the alternative, and with that God has made a way for you and your baby. I pray that you and Chase will always look to the Lord, and take comfort in Him. Blessings on you and your family – Roxanne
