I beg to differ babysitting is not a rule it's parents not being the parents. You have to take initiative and show them you won't take it anymore

If you can afford to move out then you should.  But if your just planning on staying with ur bf for a few days you should ask your parents.  The last thing you want is to get kicked out.  As for ur sister... I hate to tell you, but if ur staying with ur parents you have to abide by their rules.  If watching ur sis is a rule u gotta do it.

Yeah they should understand you going to be a mother you should be resting now your gonna need all the energy you can get for baby I'm sure she doesn't expect you to watch her child and take care of a new born at the same time have the conversation now so she  can start making arrangements to take care of her own child so you can take care of yours good luck with that hun

I moved out at 19 and got pregnant and stayed gone. My mom didn't like that she lost a full time babysitter but she got over it

Thats how i see it im have to move put in order to get it thru to her

I am in a similar situation, I watch my sisters 5yr old every day before going to my own job. I am 30wks and have given my sister plenty of time to make other arrangements. Its hard to find the energy to keep yourself healthy and look after another person. So giving your mom enough time would be helpful in not stressing her or yourself out about who will care for her when you are no longer able to.

If your having a baby it's time to grow up and be an adult approach the situation as such. Sit your mom down and tell her that you have a higher priority now which is your own baby and you need to give he/she your full attention and you have your own choices if you want to move out she can't do anything about it the only thing she can really do is not help you out but as an adult we can't rely on anyone else to take care of us and have to do it ourselves. So step up and speak your mind be an adult.

Try discussing with ur mom that you are not comfortable watching ur little sister and the newborn baby. You have to mentally prepare yourself for late night feedings and bonding with ur own child! Or it's best to move with ur child's father if he's any help temporarily my opinion. Goodluck

You don't have to look after your sister. You're helping your mom out because you want to. You're having a child of your own and she shouldn't pin your sister on you either way. Just talk to her about how you feel. She should understand that your sister isn't your responsibility, your soon to be newborn is. Oh and If you're 18 years old it isn't up to her if you move out or not. It's your choice.

Maybe a talk to with yr Mom to let her know u can't be a full time babysitter anymore. That doesn't mean u can't help her out just maybe part time because having a newborn is very tough. Expecially if ur baby is up all night and sleeps all day. You  will be exhausted. Good luck :)

Okay thanks

You dont have to watch your sister. It doesn't matter if you're living with your parents, thats your moms baby so shes your moms responsibility. You've already helped her as far as you could, and im noy saying don ever look after your sis but your baby is going to be your main priority once he's here. Sit your mom down to talk to her when shes in a good mood and just tell her how you feel

[kiabrown]

Yeah but im having a baby of my own and my.mother dont won't me to move out

[BonitaMichelle]

If you're living with your parents; you have to watch your sister
