What hope is there for those babies' lives? For their futures and educations? For their idea of a family? Or their being raised by two involved, in-residence parents?

I know it kills you, Dro, that it's not you. It kills me, too. You are in so much better a position to bring children into this world. I hope to goodness your sister will get her tubes tied.

Above all, my fondest wish is that this much hoped-for dream will come true for you any day now. It isn't fair. Glad you expressed what you were feeling! I hope my candor doesn't offend anyone. Babies need fathers at home. And stability.
I totally agree with you BG. One thing she is only 20. I'm the oldest out of all my siblings (22). The daddy is a great dad though. Even though he doesn't live there they each have him about half of the week, he is never in need of anything. Always has pampers and milk. But paying bills, being 20, now gonna be 2 kids barely a year apart, and working in a fast food place with low wages will take a toll on anyone.

This August 16 we will celebrate our 4 year wedding anniversary. We have been together for a total of 5 years and trying for 3 with no luck. It can be very frustrating. I'm so ready for a child. We have a great cash flow coming in and he has held his job for 4 years permanent and one year as a temp. For a total of 5 years. My car is going to be paid off ion August and our next step is buying a house. I'm ready to have a family. It just seems like one of those impossible dreams sometimes.
Dro_Princess Reviewed by Dro_Princess on . I cant hold it in I have to blurt this out OK So I swore to my sister, on my future children, that I wouldn't tell anyone that WE knew. But she didn't say anything about people on the Internet that I don't know. SHE IS PREGNANT AGAIN!!!!:eek: Her baby is just 5 months old, 6 months on the 23 and she is knocked up again! I'm totally trippin, she cant afford another baby right now, and she was taking birth control this time! Not to mention the tough time I'm having getting knocked up because of fertility issues. I'm so envious Rating: 5
