How is my life gonna change when I have my daughter?

Question

I'm 15 and I were just wondering how its gonna change

Answer 1

she will be your world and you will do anything to keep that little girl safe. You will always be "mom" and you will always have what you see as a litttle girl looking up at you watching every move you make. You will have someone to love non stop and love you back. SHe will call for you to pick her up in the middle of the night she will call you when shes at a party and shes drunk and cant drive you will have to go pick her up. SHe will crawl into your lap and fall asleep watching a movie.she will cry on your shoulder when her first boyfriend breaks her heart. she will need you every waking hour of the night when you bring her home. she will need you to teach her right and wrong. and love her forever.

**now does that change your outlook on having a daughter**

Answer 3

Your priorities will change.

Answer 4

Honestly, for you, it probably won't change as much as it would for someone older. You're too young to have a job and I imagine your mom is going to have a huge part in helping you raise the baby. If you still live at home, which I assume you do, you have a family to babysit if you need to run out for something, you most likely don't have to worry about day care.. I'm 22 and have a 1 month old baby. I get to sleep for 3 hours at a time, if I'm lucky. If I need to run to the grocery store for something, I have to time it around my baby. It would be stupid to go when I know it's time for him to eat. Instead of being able to get ready to go out in an hour, it takes 2 hours because I have to feed him and get him ready to go too. The financial responsibility is INSANE. One can of formula ($14) lasts us approx. 4 days. Same with a $10 package of diapers. That's almost $250/month just for formula and diapers... Then there's Dr. appointments and clothing...  I'm thankful everyday that I waited until I had a house and was married to get pregnant. There is NO way I could do this without my husband. It is so draining emotionally, physically and financially.... But I wouldn't trade it for the world :) There is nothing that compares to your baby looking into your eyes...

Good luck and I hope you have a supportive family to help you. You're going to need it.

Answer 5

Your life will be nothing like how it used to be.  You will be a mom-and that status stays with you FOREVER.  You will lost a ton of sleep, you will always have to think of that little girl before yourself.  You aren't the most important anymore.  Babies are soooooo expensive.  So all the money that you used to spend on yourself will now go to things that she needs-diapers, formula, clothes etc.  Its gonna be sooo hard.  But I think that if you have mentally prepared yourself, you will be fine.  Good luck.

Answer 6

Well of course there is the obvious, you will no longer be able to put yourself first. Your lil girl will always be your first consideration. Every decision you make, you will first have to consider how your actions will effect her.

You will have a connection like you have never known to another pserson. She will be your heart and soul. You will love her more intesnsely thant you ever thought possible and you would give your life to save her in an instant.

Things might get hard and you might feel left out watching all your friends go about their normal teenage lives. But remember this, you have your precious daughter and she is a gift.

Answer 7

Wow. 15? Things are going to get super tough/stressful for you. Having a baby is alot of work!! My daughter didn't even sleep through the night til she was 2. I hope you have alot of support around you. If it weren't for my husband, I would've literally been ripping my hair out. Best of luck to you!

Answer 8

WELL I HATE TO GIVE YOU THE BAD NEWS BUT ONCE YOUR BABY IS BORN YOU NOT ONLY HAVE YOURSELF TO TAKE CARE OF BUT A SMALL HELPLESS BABY TO TAKE CARE OF THAT  IS TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON YOU. EVERYWHERE YOU GO YOUR GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE BABY TO. YOU'LL ALSO HAVE TO FIND A JOB TO SUPPORT YOUR BABY. BUT THE BIGGEST CHANGE WILL BE YOU. YOUR NOT A GIRL ANYMORE YOUR A MOMMY NOW.
