Yay! Made 28 weeks today and cannot wait to meet baby boy (August 24th). I been feeling really emotional lately though as I seen a post on Facebook that asked if you had a good support system while carrying life or if you have kids already and I nearly cried. I’m 23 years old and have a rocky relationship with my parents. I say rocky because I moved out March of 2020 and since then I have to be the one to call them otherwise I don’t hear from them and only reason I really do is because I have very little siblings since I never feel welcomed anymore in the house. Even then, I still have to call and check up on everyone. They didn’t like my boyfriend in the beginning because of his record which is understanding as I’m the oldest and first born, but he did things as a minor and nothing major. He been so supportive and helpful (been by my side since 2018) and really my only support system. I have friends with kids also that have given words of encouragement as well and advice, but I really want that with my mom. This is our first kid and I wish my mom would come around. I feel like she doesn’t even care and that she has to force herself to ask about the baby sometimes. I just want the genuine care from them both as my dad doesn’t even ask about how the baby is doing. It’s like I’m not pregnant to him. Sorry for the long post, but I’m just glad I have these groups to go to for questions and to hear from other experienced or first time moms🥺🥺 I just feel alone since my boyfriend doesn’t fully understand the whole experience and body change.
