Mommy shaming?

Question

Do y’all feel like people shame you for wanting to start a family? I’m TTC with our second baby but it will be my third pregnancy. Our son will be 14 months old at the end of the month. I feel nervous because yes I’m a young mother but I love my little family and me and my husband are really wanting to add one more.. people constantly are putting me down over it? It’s starting to upset me we’re going on month 3 of ttc. I know I shouldn’t care what others think but it’s honestly so hard not too..

Answer

I wouldn't call it shaming, that word is used too often &'in wrong context these days.
If you & your husband are ready to add onto your already beautiful family DO IT!
You two are the ones who pay the bills, who raise the baby, who benefit from it.
Everyone can have their opinion but that shouldn't factor in a decision only you & hubby can make anyway.
I'd say ignore the negative comments & do what you think is best for your family, especially if you're young !!

Answer

I feel the same way! Not many people no we are trying but they no we want another child. I have a daughter who is almost 4 and my partner has anxiety/learning difficulties and is a stay at home dad, while I go out and work. I constantly get criticism for wanting another and people often say something about my partner and him getting a job or how will we cope. This drives me nuts!! My partner is an amazing dad and I would prefer to work, so our situation works out great. But I am still put down or shamed by it! 
I know this might not have helped you but just knowing there is someone else in a similar situation has helped me alittle. Your not alone in this 😘
