Hi Tiffanie.
I don't live in Florida and am 26 but you are more than welcome to chat with me if you feel alone. Sometimes, I feel that way too. I am having my second baby so I've been there and done that. I have no support this time around because my babies will be very close together. Whatever...I am happy to be having MY BABY!
When are you due and do you know what you are having?
My Godson was born when I was 18. And he is such a little sweet heart and his mom is wonderful. It is not always easy for her, but she is doing a great job. You are going to be great too. Just know you are NOT ALONE. It might be hard for you to talk to your family...but you might want to try.
As for meeting up with some one or groups. Check out meetup.com for local mommy and me groups /playdates. You will be able to meet other moms and gather a support/friend base. When the baby comes...your gonna need all the love and support you can get for a little while.
Plus after baby comes...people get all gooey and you tend to get more support. |

Hi. I'm Jenny from NY. I'm 25 and expecting my first baby boy February 13, 2009.
I'm feeling like I'm doing a lot of this on my own and I too came on this site searching for some support. I am MORE than excited to be having a baby. I just feel like all the friends I have had for so long are somehow not there as I always thought it would be. I know they all love me but I feel alienated at times. |

Hi, ladies -
Well I am 33 and having my first baby (living in Portland, OR). Although I'm thrilled to be having a baby, I do find that I'm often lonely and friends are busy with their own lives. I've heard pregnancy is a no-womans land--we're no longer unattached and open to go out and do whatever our single friends have in mind, and yet we're not actually parents yet either. Well, hopefully in a few months we'll all have a social network :) For now, Tiffany, I would suggest finding some pre-natal group in your area. You can check in at a local hospital, they often have free pre-natal support groups, or maybe you can join a pre-natal exercise class of some kind. Then join a new mom group after. Best of luck and email anytime!
