Hey Claire,

I'm Nikki, and I used to be a teen mum (well, for a month!) and I am from Rotorua originally - head back up there now and again as Mum still lives there.

Did you go to school in Vegas?

Who is your midwife?

Oh yeah, more questions -

Have you been to an antenatal course?

There is a one day teen preggo course run which is quite good... you get to meet a few other young preggo mamas. I was quite a lot older than many of them there so didn't really make any friends but it was good anyway.

One of the ladies at my coffee group is only 17, so don't feel like you can't make friends with us oldies.

I was a teen mum too. Ask at your local plunket for any young mums groups I used to go to one and have just started up another one so if theres none you could always start one?

Well I was only 19 when I had Keira, I'm 21 now (almost 22 ) and on to my second. I guess thats close enough. I have always felt a lot older than most teen mums (They have them really young around here) but a lot younger than the rest.

Thanks girls. I felt really alone and was feeling that "im the only teen mum 2 b" at the moment. It was horrible at antenatal classes as all the other parents to be were in their mid to late 20's

If you get in touch with Carolyn Fitch at the Rotovegas health centre - she might be able to put you in touch with a young mums group. She was my midwife and I know she takes on a lot of younger clients (as well as being the clinic midwife at Rotovegas)

Worth a try

I was 19 when i was pregnant with C ,and it wasnt so bad when i was pregnant cos I was at Bethany ,which is a place for young mums, but when i went out with her after she was born it was difficult, because I might have been 19 but i look young, so I looked about 14, and i didnt have a partner, and the looks I would get sometimes , woah! you would think I had committed some crime!
But i decided if they werent going to change their attitudes, i would change mine and get a stronger back bone and walk proud with my beautiful daughter ,knowing that im doing the best job i can do

I was only JUST 16 when I had my first 14 years ago & really hope that attitudes have changed since then - OMG some of the staff at the hospital at her birth & after when she was admitted for other issues were ... ummm .... well... the only words that i can think of to describe them shouldn't really be posted here!!!

i'm not quite a teen mum, but not too far off. I was 19 almost 20 when i got married, (4 days of it actually) and then got pregnant and had V when i was 21. all the other people in our antenatal class were in their 30's! i only have one friend who is a young mum, and she is three years older than me. so if you will allow me, i'd like to get to know you. i'm not a teen as i said, but not far off it. Alia, i didn't realise you were a young mummy too.

Haha... I'll take that as a compliment I was 17 when I had Seb, so pretty young I guess! But then I was pretty fed up with the whole teenage thing by about 16 1/2... just wasn't my thing! Can't stand large parties, drunk people, cigarette smoke, I don't drink myself, and absolutely hated high school esp the students! (in general that is, I still made some pretty neat friends at school)

Sounds like me!
I'm 21 and look 18 when I am lucky, I still get ID'd for films etc. I was never a typical teenager and due to I guess what you would call life's circumstances I grew up faster then I probably would have. I was engaged at 19, married at 20, and now pregnant with my first. Not quite a teen mum, but younger then other pregnant people I have met so far.

My youngest brother is only 4, and I had alot to do with his upbrining. He taught me the greatest respect for young mums. What amazing women so dedicated to their children, they grow up alot faster then most people out there! Although my brother wasnt mine, the general public didn't know that and I can't get over the reactions I got when I took him out for an afternoon.

flake, that sounds like me. engaged at 19, married just before 20 had first baby at 21. now on 2nd, but very much alike.

Alia, i wanted a kid at 16! but had no one to have it with, and parent's wouldn't have agreed etc etc. and then life threw some major curve balls, hence it wasn't til i was 21 1/2 that i had vincent.

Heya, I had my eldest son when I was 18 (can't believe that's a decade ago on Monday!) I also went to Bethany though any decent teen antenatal/coffee group will give you the same benefits, help, contacts etc that you'll need.
One thing that I really, really wished I could of heard when I was having Nathaniel was for someone to tell me that being a young mum is NOT the end of the world or your life as you know it, it is NOT something you should ever be ashamed about and that you should be really proud for bringing beautiful children into this world.
Age isn't a deciding factor in good vs bad parenting; effort and love are the only things that matter. I have known a 14 year old mum (25 now) who has a bright, loved and happy child as well as knowing a mother in her 40's who really doesn't have a clue nor (sadly) care too much for her kids.
My hats off to you having twins, it's not going to be easy at times but there really ARE amazing, wonderful moments gained in life from having children that makes the worst day turn into the funniest.

Don't think of yourself as a 'teen mum' you are MUM to the ones that really count no matter what age you are, pure and simple

At Antenatal class on the first night, a lady I was talking to just "Assumed" I was the youngest in the class lol! I dont look 25 I look about 18 to most people lol. I ALWAYS get Id'd in places where they dont know me lol

yup same as me,my idea of a late night is midnight,and even thats pushing it , being at home watching some dvds is so much more appealing,and i HATE going into town, i spend the whole time hoping its time to go

Sounds like me!

Yeah, im 26 and I got ID'd for an R16 film a couple of years ago, and to add insult to injury.....it was for HOUSE OF WAX

Due to circumstances when i was 18 i grew up faster, but up until then i was your typical rebellious lazy teen

Are your boys identical Claire? thats very exciting,all those cute matching outfits


Posted By: AliaDawn
Date Posted: 29 March 2008 at 6:30pm
I really feel for young mums who look even younger! I think I was able to pass for 16 at 13... I was pretty tall even then, 5"6 or 5"7... (am 5"9 now) I could get into clubs at 15 without ID... so I figure I must look at least in my 20's now.

I wanted a kid at 16 too... but I wasn't quite stupid enough to try for it (totally wasn't set up for it, and Mike wasnt anywhere near ready) but I wasn't exactly going to cry over it when it happened by accident (although Mike did freak out a bit lol)

Yup they are identical. We have brought alot of matching oufits but done it in different colours ie same pants but different colour tops. or same all in one but one of the boys has navy blue and the other one has baby blue. i just thought it was cute. but then again on the other hand we have also got alot of un-matching outfits to give them a bit of individuality... if you get what i mean!


UPDATE ON THE LABOUR FRONT:

Been having alot of very strong tightenings across my tummy and bikini line this afternoon. A family friend came around today and she reckons im going to have them late tonight or early tomorrow morning.


Take Care everyone

I'm not a teen mum - a looong way from it - but I just wanted to second what Jadey said. Both my sisters were teen mums, and one of my neices and I really wanted to be, but 20 yrs and a lot of water under the bridge later I still aren't a mum - but hope to be real soon.

Hey ladies!!!!

Im 24, will be 25 this yr but I too was a teen mummy and Ive graduated to young mummy hehe!!!!

Got pregnant with my daughter Aiesha when I was 15 1/2 and had her at 16, she is now 8 1/2 yrs old...

Got pregnant with my son Carlos when I was 16 1/2 and had him at 17, he is now 7 1/2 yrs old...

Im now pregnant with my 3rd another lil boy and cant wait!!!!

Im still with the kids daddy and altho I used to get the looks etc I didnt care as I was happy and thats all that matters....

I started a Young Mummies NZ forum on MSN so others in the same situation could chat to those who were also like them and feel comfortable about it.. this site is located in my profile if anyone wants it....

Hi, just thought I'd let you know that Claire didn't actually lose her babies on the 3rd of April, there were no babies there at all when they got to the hospital - and we have since found out that if she were ever pregnant at all she has known that there have been no babies since at least when she was meant to be 29 weeks - we are finding out more about whether she ever was pregnant at all tomorrow.
Not a nice thing to find out, but I'm sick of reading her posts on here about her angels being delivered stillborn - my brother was her partner - I just hope she's going to be getting the help she so obviously needs to have decieved both mine and her families for so long about something so sensitive.

WTF! I have been feeling so bad for her since I heard the news. thats a horrible thing to do but i guess she obviously has some issues and hope she gets help. Surely it would have been pretty obvious if she was never actually pregnant with twins

That is a disgusting thing to do. I feel really sorry for the March and April mums to be who have been put through this when they are still to have their babies, if anyone deserves hugs and to be thought of at the moment i think they do.. To the March and April mums to be.

ETA: That its JMHO
Also, its abit hard to make up being 39 weeks pregnant to RL people let along making up your pregnant with TWINS. Whose to say 06baby isnt claire trying to make up for what shes done??

The whole thing is just wrong.

I don't even know what to say!!! How can someone possibly 'pretend' to be pregnant, and with twins. Surely, if she wasn't, it was obvious?

Oh thats just very weird, and very wrong!!

This sort of thing happens all the time -- people lying about themselves and their situation. You just can't believe everything that you read ANYWHERE. I had a hard time believing some of the things that mum2sleepingangels had written so far. I guess the whole full story will come out to us eventually!

hi, I've already had one pm telling me to leave, and my intention isnt to cause problems, but she is one sick girl and obviously needs some treatment for whatever it is she has.
my brother has never been allowed to a scan because they've always been while he was working. we've found out that she hasnt seen her 'midwife' for months and now she 'cant remember' where it was she actually had her scans and things like that.
its possible she did have the symptoms of being pregnant because she put on nearly 30 kg, so we all thought she was pregnant. And she's obviously been reading up so she knew what she was supposed to be feeling and doing at the different stages.
i'm not claire at all, i'm i suppose her sister in law - or was. my brother is back living with us for a while now while he gets his head around all of this before he decides what he's going to do.
it's a horrible time for him seeing as I'm due in 4 weeks with my own baby and now he's going to be here for it.

I just went back and read some of her posts and she said she was having contractions on 25th jan. That would make her like 30 weeks?? Wouldnt she be at the hospital instead of writing on a message board?

I agree it would be SO OBVIOUS I mean if a family cant distinguish the difference between a non pregnant woman and a woman 39 weeks with twins then something is wrong also, what about the extra scans u get when u r carrying twins??? Im sorry but I am just blown away by all of this.

EDIT sorry dont buy it, 30kg does not look like a twin baby bump

That's if she lives near family.

I had a bit of a weird feeling about all this, but it still made me cry anyway

I'm sorry but I was waiting for the "truth" to come out. I had heard some things about her through another ohbaby member and didn't believe a word she said. So when the twins had died or were born sleeping, I didn't believe that they even existed in the first place. Sick sick person putting all the other mums through that!

Its even worse, considering IF she stole those tummy pics, she now has over 100 posts and can get into our photo section!!

Bebo would be an easy place for her to get belly pics.

omg! Thats just sick!! Gosh I cant believe I got upset for this girl! GRRRRRRR

You know I did actually wonder why she wasnt as hospital if her waters had broken...she said she went to hospital for a check 30 hours later, that seemed a long time to wait at home, especially with twins! I thought, if that were me my midwife would have sent me to hospital cos of infection and what not...

I too cant believe it and I also had myself thinking I was really lucky that my bubs were ok etc and then feeling kinda guilty you know? Im SOOO glad I found out tho.. Def an AWFUL and SICK thing to do esp to those of us who ARE actually pregnant and our pics and post are REAL!!!!!!

 

Is she gunna be allowed to come back into the group coz I sure as hell dont feel comfortable about it PLUS regardless of wether she has issues etc IMHO THAT IS NOOOO EXCUSE TO LIE AND DECEIVE OTHERS ABOUT A FAKE PREGNANCY!

 

Sorry ladies for my rant, its just really p*ssed me off....

 

Hugs to all of those that this has affected ie the families and also us on here that actually fell for it hook, line and sinker...

Are you serious? Her whole pregnancy wasn't real?!!! But I cried everytime I read about it! And I even told my Nana about it when I saw her yesterday, that's how affected I was about hearing of little twins being stillborn!! I don't get it...

whatever the truth is or isn't, she can't be stopped coming on here under a new name.  I hope she gets some top-shelf double-strength professional help asap.  I really feel for the women in the same 'due in...' thread - you guys must have been on an emotional rollercoaster!

Hi ladies
I just wanted to let you all know that I know of 06baby. Not personally but we are on another forum together, in the same due in group.
It was her that first mentioned about her SIL and how she had lied etc in the other forum. I mentioned this girl on here that sounded very familiar so she come in to read up on what she had been posting. Everything matched, name, where she lived, everything.

I felt absolutely sick to come on here and read that Claire had supposedly lost her babies when in fact I thought it wasn't true.
But what can you do about it. You can't exactly accuse someone of lying when you could be wrong, that would be just terrible.

I'm really glad that the true has come out as I know so many of us were genuinely sad for her. To lose 2 babies at once is such a horrible thing to go through and its just not right for everyone to think she had lost them, when she hadn't.

I actually went and read alot of her posts from the March group and when you read a lot of the things she says it doesn't make sense. I mean, she claimed to have been leaking waters since she was about 28 weeks. Plus if you look at those belly pics, to me that doesn't look like a pregnant tum at all, just the tum of a big person.

Anyway I'm glad this has come out, hugs to all of you that this has really affected. As I know how much things on here really affect us IRL

Hopefully she will get it.

CLAIRE, YOU OWE EVERYONE AN APOLOGY AND/OR AN EXPLANATION AT THE VERY VERY LEAST.

My best friend had a full term stillborn baby and it is NOT EVER EVER alright to make up lies about that sort of thing. How heartless and cruel.

Me too, I cried to DF when I read about it and said that I was scared that would happen to our baby. I was so worried and upset.

Thats exactly what i did and what i was thinking! and i wondered because surely if the babies had died earlier in the preg the modwife would have picked it up, or not picked up any heartbeats, i found it odd, she never said about not feeling any movement etc.

I cried for her and held my own baby daughter close to me and cried for all the other women who havent had the chance to hold their babies close, now i feel cheated by her.
but i hope she gets the helps she so obviously needs

i agree ladies, it'sa sucha sad thing to do! i know a lady who lost a baby at 36weeks, they delivered her by emergency c section adn then the baby had brain damage so they turned off life support. it's deffinately not something you kid about! i did think it was strange tho when i heard she'd lost them coz she didn't mention lack of movement etc.

i hope she get's the help she needs. there is such thing as a phantom pregnancy, and that could be what was happening, when she lost the babies (if she did) at 29 weeks, she could have a mental illness that made her deny it and keep on with the preggy. phantom preggy's i'm not sur ehow common they are, but they are real.
