Sooo.. feel free to flame me... but, I think I might have waited a bit longer to have a baby. I LOVE this little man don't get me wrong.. but the transition into motherhood has been tougher than I thought it would be. The lack of sleep, lack of freedom, and lack of my old life is making me sad. I hear it gets easier but I'm ready for that to happen.

I felt this way too for at least the first two months. I felt resentful towards DS because I couldn't spend time with DD the way I used to. But now that his little personality is emerging, I love him to pieces and he feels like he belongs in our family, if that makes sense. I had similar feelings with DD when she was a newborn. The beginning is just so hard!!! But it will get easier, I promise!

All of this. I felt like I ruined our lives and DD's after E was born for a couple weeks. I remember with DD1 thinking the same. I also remember having moments of hating her. Luckily then she'd do something cute and I would feel better.
I regret not taking ex back to court for more child support for DS1. I also regret not divorcing him sooner. DS1 starts college on 6/20. I told my ex how much tuition was and if he can pay for half....he basically said no that's why i give u child support money ($340/month). I was so pissed.
If we are digging back... I really regret not trying more in HS. I mean it all worked out in the end, bc I have a great life and I got it together in college (you know going to classes, doing the work, etc) but I will definitely always wonder. I also probably wouldn't have been so miserable in HS if I made an effort with anything

I regret not starting C25k before getting pregnant. I kept making excuses that I had no time or energy. Now I literally have no time, am falling asleep at my desk by 3pm, and I can't just go to the gym whenever I want.
I regret not going for IF treatments earlier. I was stubborn and in some denial about it for a really long time. I know I wouldn't have the kids I have now, but my family and friends all have kids that are older than mine now. It's hard to hang out because we are at different stages of raising the kids. I'm still at the follow the toddler around and make sure he's not doing anything wrong while they can actually socialize with adults. And I have years of this left as DD gets older and mobile.
I regret picking the doctors office I did, which meant going to the hospital I did. Because the hits from them have kept coming- they messed up her birth certificate, and yesterday I got a call basically threatening to send my bill to collections... Except I haven't received a bill from the hospital, only from the providers.

I regret not saving more money when I was in my early 20s. All my friends own these big houses and I own like 100 Banana Republic pencil skirts. Though I don't regret spending most of my money on travel then. Just the skirts. They make me look super fat now.
I had no choice, but I really regret not getting past 35 weeks pregnant. It's still painful when people complain about being over being pregnant.
Same here. I wish I got to know what labor felt like and even that super uncomfortable prgnant belly. I wanted to feel totally miserable. Plus, having a full term baby would have been great.
I regret not sticking up more for myself in high school.
With you, I still have no backbone. Mean girls in high school took every ounce of self confidence I had, and I'll never get all of it back.
I kind of regret not making friends a priority. I have a few really good friends, but they're all in different circles. I wouldn't mind a best friend, and a group of girls to get together with. Kind of ties into the confidence thing though.

I regret the choices that lead to a lot of student loans. I mean, I wouldn't have met H, and I wouldn't have the job I've had for 6 years now. And my loans are a product of being a 17 year old kid with no guidance and parents who didn't go to college, so I had no idea what I was doing filling out paperwork and they weren't intentionally stupid decisions. But it's a lot of stress on me.
I also regret trying to maintain friendships with people who have basically fallen off the planet. My supposed best friend hasn't called me in months and I'm tired of being the only one who makes the calls.

+1 on the student loan part. I made very poor decisions so I'm paying a car payment worth of student loans every month and driving a 13 year old car.
