Is motherhood not for you? Would you like to place your baby in a better home?
I know some of you are going to judge me but i will take my chances.. I am looking to adopt or foster someones child. I will gather any paperwork, and any adoption price you may need. If you are serious and want to know more send me a private message at babyfever rocketmail.com... I love children and i will be a great mother I am not only looking to adopt or foster babies I think every child deserves a chance Watching the new we see these parents who lose their minds and kill themseleves and their children.. There are better options.. Even if you are not looking to give you child up you can even email me if you'd like to talk and feel you need a friend who wouldnt judge you....Sometimes the best people to talk to are strangers..
When's it going to be my turn at motherhood?
I have been trying for such a long, long time to conceive almost 9 years . my husband and i are guardians of his 12 yr old half sister. she's a special needs child she has epilepsy, MR and ADHD. but it's not the same as having my own child , having her here feels like a secondary prize or something why because she NOT my child she's my sister in law. More than anything in the world, I want to be a mother. It seems like everytime I turn around, my friends are celebrating pregnancies. While I am happy for them, it's killing me inside. it's so difficult. I've been to a fertility specialist, tried everything anf had every kind of treatment but i'm tired of being poked and prodded. I'm wondering when it might be time to give up trying to conceive.every time there is another expecting mother in my life I almost feel as if her announcement is going to push me off the edge. It's not that I'm not happy for her or don't like her, for some reason it is just that it's hitting closer to home. I did not expect the price of motherhood to need every last drop of strength I posses and then some. Hope is one of those things that is hard to catch right at the moment. but it's just so hard. How do I keep my faith?thank you all your encouragement is Very Uplifting and VERY Appreciated
Finding motherhood impossibly tough :-(?
I have a 1 yr old daughter and am a recently single mum, Im finding every day so tough, i love my daughter, but i cant cope sometimes. she is 16 months now and just started walking and is very active and doesnt sleep much. Sometimes i yell at her when she doesnt go to sleep at night, then i feel bad afterwards, like ive probably traumatised her and im a bad mum. I have a history of post natal depression which is ongonig and im on prozac, the dose was upped a little while ago. I love my daughter so much but when I think of doing this day after day after day, it makes me feel so down, i sometimes wish i could just go to sleep and never wake up. Ive seen gp, mental health nurses, counsellors, pychiatrists, psychotherapists, etc and havent found any helpful. It helps me to go out every day, even if its just for a short walk with her in her pram, but im starting to find it harder and harder to leave the house, i cant make the effort. My mum is not supportive because my daughter is mixed race and now she and my brother dont speak to me anymore, I have a few friends, but they're all busy with work and relationships etc and dont have kids. Ive tried mother and baby groups, but find it hard to open up and make conversation with other mums and end up sitting in the corner, I cant seem to come out of my shell. I always try to make sure my baby is having a good life, give her healthy food, read books together, learn new things, praise, encourage and hug her regularly. She is always clean and well kept, the only thing is, i feel utterly miserable. I've been feeling like this since she was born and i know it wont go away, i just want to know how to cope with feeling like this.any help would be greatly appreciated.thanks
What could be wrong with me? Is this motherhood hitting me?
For a couple days I've had a.. what's a word " fuzzy" feeling in my stomach. And this morning when I went to the restroom I wiped and it was a light brown mucusy with a creamy almost a faint red lil line. but very little. Wiped again it was a spot. A tiny one. Then the third time... nothing. Im two weeks late but took a test last week it said it was negative. I got another one this morning but haven't took it yet. Should I wait for the first morning urine.? I've also been seeing things differently. Like all of the sudden I don't wanna smoke any more.. and I've been dreaming wierd. Is this what I think it is?
I was reading this website for motherhood and I read so many depressed mothers that can't cope with motherhood?
I'm just wondering why some women want to have more than one kid when they know taking care of kids are not easy? Are they trying to make their man to love them more? Chain the man with responsibility so that they can be blamed and scolded by the society if they choose to leave the marriage? Is it okay to be married and not having kids?
Is motherhood worth it?
I'm 27yrs old and my husband and I have talked about trying for a baby in the next year or so but....I don't know I just see other mothers who are constantly tired and worn out, and who complain of weight gain and marriage problems. And how, when there kids go to a sleep over its nice to have some peace and quiet and also, once a baby is born your time to yourself goes out the window. Nor to mention how expensive they are... And I just think...really? Is it worth it? I just feel v negative about the idea. Will this change? I hate the idea of being a stay at home mum and breast feeding completely repulses me. As does child birth.... But I do want children....so why do I feel this way?
Introducing my kitty to motherhood...?
My kitten is only 7 months old and I'm strongly thinking about not fixing her up and rather leave her to maybe have kittens hoping this will make her calmer and more sensitive. I wouldnt want to take my kittens playfullness away. If anything that's the last thing I want but she is quite aggressive. She will randomly start kicking and scratching and biting my hand. When i pick her up she'll bite my face. Although Im not sure that this is the right thing to do because she has only one lung. Someone stood on her when she was a few weeks old and popped her one lung. She is also smaller than normal Korats and I don't want to put her in any kind of danger. Please let me know if you think it's a bad idea or good idea to introduce her to motherhood.. Thanks
How do I help my daughter to become more independent so I can reclaim the joy of motherhood?
My ten month old daughter screams hysterically every time I leave the room. Which means I don t do ANYTHING all day but hold her, feed her, and play with her. My husband is a wonderful father and takes over with her when he gets home from work, which is when I start cooking and cleaning until it is time to go to bed. I have no time for me.She will often play quietly beside me for a few minutes while I m on the computer or doing laundry, but if I am doing chores that require me to move from one room to the other, I have to carry her around in a sling, which is like being pregnant with a 30 pound baby and doubles the time it takes to do anything. My husband and I waited to have a baby until if finished graduate school and we were financially stable enough for me to be a fulltime stay at home mom. I knew raising a child would be challenging, life altering, and require sacrifice. As it turns out for me, being a stay at home mom has meant absolute selflessness. The chronic back pain from holding her, picking her up and toting her around all day keeps me from getting good sleep. I haven t read one book since she was born I rarely have time to read the news or exercise outside of taking her on walks . I don t feel like I have anyone to talk to about this the times I ve tried to discuss it with my mother, she has made me feel guilty, the last time she snarled that I better get my tubes tied ASAP so I am not burdened with the horror of another child. When I bring it up with my husband, he doesn t seem to understand and often suggests just letting her cry when I need to get something done. Each day, I put her in her crib or playpen for an hour while I shower, dress, and wolf down a microwave lunch. She spends this time screaming so hysterically that she can barely breath. Needless to say, every lunch and breakfast I have is incredibly stressful.My baby is an intelligent, precious person, a delightful social butterfly who engages strangers in the park and at restaurants. I know this is not her fault. I LOVE her and feel grateful to have her and the financial stability to devote so much attention to her. Yet I don t want to become resentful. Nor do I want her to sense the fact that around 3 pm each day I m wishing I were doing anything else besides reading her a book and praying she takes a nap. My daily life feels like a bad dream where it takes me eight hours to load the dishwasher. How do I help myself and my family?
If motherhood is a hard job why....?
Why is it that a daycare worker can look after 5 children and a stay at home single mother has every right to stay at home with their one child aged 2 5, on welfare, not working? Almost all women believe this is an undeniable right, would argue that motherhood is the hardest job there is, etc.... So tell me why it is that a woman would work her butt off from 9 am to 5 pm looking after 1 child while at the same time 5 identical kids could be looked after in a daycare setting. Before you say " Well she cooks, she cleans, she does laundry, etc..." don't forget that all single men and women do these things to their homes with no belief in compensation. It is our homes after all, it's our responsibility to clean our own home and to cook our own meals and do our own laundry.No doubt a woman HAS to look after her kid when she's not working. That's a moral responsibility. My question was meant to be why does every woman deserve to look after her own kids INSTEAD of working a full time job, when the job of looking after the kid can be accomplished more efficiently by a daycare worker. Some people are good at looking after 5 kids, some aren't. Why not let the ones that are good at looking after 5 kids do so from 9am 5pm while the mothers work at something they are good at, and then the mothers can look after them the rest of the hours of the day?By the way before some people start calling me a sexist pig, I think the same should be true of single dads. If a single dad can't look after their kid plus 4 others, he should send the kid to daycare some of the day so he can work at a job, earn money for his child's well being, and then look after the kid the rest of the day. I think any single parent has a responsibility to work and don't leech off the government because they'd prefer to stay at home with their 1 child.

Is Motherhood is unresponsibly supported?
Great emphasis is placed on Motherhood in modern society. Mother with baby can virtually get away with murder these days. It's almost as if society justifies anything a mother does as long as she says it was to protect her child. One has to wonder why the Media hypes this issue and Governments virtually encourage 'breeding programs' by offering Mothers financial support for every child they bear. Females are almost conditioned into thinking that if they fail at their careers, Motherhood is a great option.CORRECTION Question should read Is Motherhood unresponsibly supported?
