I always wanted children and couldn't wait to become a mum,I was married to my first husband when I was 19 he was my first boyfriend I met him at school when I was 15, I thought babies would come along as soon as we where married but had to wait 2 yrs before DD came along.
DD was an easy birth just 4hrs and she was such a pleasent baby,my husband was such a mummys boy and did not like the attention my DD was getting and by the time she was 15mths old I had left him as he had no interest in my DD and spent his time with his friends and his mother so he was not surprised when I left .
I met my lovely John when DD was 3yrs old and had DS1 5yrs later and we got married 3mths later DS1 never slept more than 2hrs he had jaundice when he was born and a midwife said to give him a drink of water between his feeds so this little chap woke every 2 hrs for a drink this went on for 18mths and we where like zombies during the day walking the floors with him but his daddy was so so good with him when he was 18mths he just changed and started sleeping but all through this I just loved being a mummy.
DS2 arrived 6yrs later quite an unexpected pregnancy I didn't realise until I was 5mths gone John was delighted but I was so shocked as we had just bought a new house and I was terrified because the interest rate was so high in 1982 15/16% and I worried how we would pay the mortgage when I gave up work but things turned out OK and we managed I started working early evening when John was at home and he looked after the children.
DS2 was much better at sleeping than DS1 so different that I had to check he was still breathing he still likes his bed to this day.
I love being a mum and would do it all again in a heartbeat.
