It was planned and I'm not unhappy that we're having this child, I just feel so un motivated to do anything. I'm just about to finish studying child care and i need to get 800 hours by the end and I have 134 left to do in 3 weeks, I know it's do-able but it means 8 hours a day every day and I work both days on the weekend. It would be fine If I had my fiance to come home to everyday but i don't. He works until 11 o clock every day and it's really getting me down. I can't find any will power to get up and go to my placement in the morning because I'm so tired all the time as i stay up until 12 because I just want to spend some time with him :(. All I get is an hour a night and I can't lose that. I don't know what to do because i feel so lonely and I hate being here on my own and when I'm upset I just want him to cuddle me and make me feel better but he's never here and he can't :(. I just don't know what to do. he's just been promoted to manager aswell which is great but it means more hours! and more staying behind if things go wrong!

I appreciate that you're trying to be nice, but you don't know how many times I've heard people say how young I am. It was planned. Being a mother is not about your age. It's about the time you can spend with a child and the love that you can give to them. My nan had her first child at 17, her mum had her first child at 18 and my mum had hers at 19. The majority of older women had children when they were young (in the past). and they've still turned out to be great Mothers. Just because a lot of people back then were more mature for there age that does not mean you should assume that I'm not. I've been to my doctor about this and he said it's perfectly normal due to the hormones going through my body because of pregnancy, it's nothing to do with age. I really do appreciate that you probably didn't realise that would offend me, but you really should think before you say things because I hear that from so many people and I don't think it's fair to judge like that.

It is a time when you need a lot of support and once the baby is born you will both need to spend time together as a family to make it work. You need to try and get your qualification if possible. I worked full-time till a few weeks before my baby was born, pace yourself, rest when you can, it is possible. But make sure your partner knows that he needs to be there to support you when you need it.
