I am 14 weeks pregnant, and im stressing myself out so much, its hurting me. I noticed that literally physically it hurtsme to stress out this much, it feels horrible. Im 20 yrs old, my boyfriend, of a year is 31. He has a ten year old daughter and eight year old son, i love them like they are my own. This is my first pregnancy and i find taking care of them, and myself, i have became miserable. i dont know what to do, not to mention, these two, NEVER behave, they could be on a show of most disrespectful children. im nit being rude, just trying to be as honest as possible so maybe i can get advice.

    You have a lot going on right now. It's easy to become stressed out. Do you have the kids full-time? At least school is starting so you will have time to yourself soon. What does BF say about the kids behavior? They are old enough, in my opinion, to sit them down tell them that you love them and set the rules straight and how the rules are going to be reinforced at your house. We have a schedule that we stick to. That helps with the craziness in our house. Everyone has their chores and does their part. If not, they know the consequences for their actions. The most important is to make sure that you and BF agree on the rules and the consequences. In terms of trying to relax, try to schedule in time for just you. Do whatever you want during this time.

    Maybe because you are more like a big sister to them, they don't see you as an authority figure? I understand you love them like your own, but taking care of someone else's 2 children that you aren't old enough to be a parent to yourself is a tall order. Talk with your BF, and focus on you and your unborn child right now.
