Hey there! I'm Megan, I'm 22, and I'm currently pregnant with my second baby.
I had my first child when I was 21 years old, pregnant when I was 20. He's currently 8 months old, and just the best baby. His name is Joseph Robert IV, and he was born 18 Feb. It was the best day of my life, but very difficult and hard. Yeah, you would say that's obvious considering I pushed a body out of my own, but that's only part of it.
I got married 16 July, after I found out I was pregnant. My husband, Joe, is in the Air Force. He was set to deploy to Afghanistan in September. He would not return until our very first baby was 6 weeks old.
It's very difficult having a baby by yourself, but I managed, and I wasn't totally alone. I had a fantastic support system behind me which consisted of my family as well as my husband's. And thankfully, he was able to be there with us thanks to a great little invention called the internet. We video chatted throughout my labor and delivery.
Anyway, after deciding on planning to have a second child when Joey (my son) was 1-2 years old, we found out just yesterday that I was pregnant again. Scary, I know. But the way my husband and mother put it, "Sure, this baby is early, but so was Joey. And look how much we love him and how well we take care of him!" So I'm trying to push all fears aside and be strictly thankful for what I have been blessed with. A wonderful, supporting husband, a great family, a beautiful little baby boy, and coming soon, another perfect addition to our growing family.
