do u "regret" having kids early?

[sadiebug1228]

i dont regret either of my kids but i sometimes wish i hadve waited, i was 16 when i had my son and turned 20 5 days before my daughter was born. i missed out on so much stuff that i wish i couldve done. i dropped out of high school, i never got to go thru drivers ed so i had to wait to get my drivers lisence til i was 18, if it werent for my BF (daughters father not my sons) i wouldnt have been able to go thru college and im thankful for his help but massage therapy isnt what i originally wanted to be, i wanted to go thru nursing or something like that, i didnt want to settle for something, dont get me wrong i love massage therapy but i wanted to do something bigger.

i dont regret my kids at all but sometimes i feel like im not doing what i was supposed to, and i just needed to vent, my bf doesnt seem to understand, he hasnt given up much of anything, he still gets to hang out with friends and his stuff always seems to come first and my stuff never gets to happen cause my priorities r my kids.....i feel like im stuck in a rut....

I was 21 when I had my son so it want really early, I regret having him with the person I did. My son was planned so never did I think he would walk out when I got pregnant. Being a single mom I struggle a lot. I wish I was at a different place and could give more to my son. I'm in college for nursing and I'm a phlebotomist but even though I'm only part time its hard, my family watches my son because I just can't afford daycare and I don't get child support, if I had known I'd be doing this alone I would have waited until I had a career and been more stable. I also feel like I'm in a rut, like no matter how hard I try, I'm stuck in the same spot always struggling. Hope things get better!!

Don't regret, don't wish I would have waited. Never have, never will. I love being a young mom :)

I just turn 17 when I had my first . Was 18 in a half had second and was 20 had the third. Sometime I do regret it. Cause I wanted do so much in my life before I had kids. But then again if I didn't have them when I did I probably wouldn't be able to have kids cause health reason. Doctor told me that

I dont quote on quote "regret" having my son. He makes me smile every day. Life wouldve been way easier if I waited though. Well too late for that. It is what it is, and I gotta make the best out of it ;)

Nope...I'm happy when I had my daughter...It might have pushed some of my dreams back a little, but I will accomplish everything I've wanted to.:)

I was 22 when I had my twins, and I'm 23 now and just had my baby. No, I have no regrets. I did have a career though and a college education, my husband and I had done what we wanted to do before we had kids, we were ready for children and they were planned.

i completely understand how you feel. While i dont regret my daughter in the least i do wish i would have waited untill i was alittle older before i had my first. I wanted to go to school and make something of myself but that didnt happen. now im a stay at home mom and while i enjoy the life sometimes i do wish it was alittle different. then again i get to see my daughter every day all day and watch her learn and experience new things, and honestly i wouldnt trade that for anything!

I don't regret my children what so ever. If it wasn't for my DD a hundred times over I probably wouldn't be here today. Before I got pregnant with her I was on a really bad track in life. She has turned my life around for the better. None of my kids were planned, and although I struggle now to get by, I know that soon enough I wont have to anymore.

You had your little girl!? :)
